How it feels

A dice-driven roguelike where every turn hinges on random rolls, demanding careful resource management with a tone of dark comedy.

What players say

Players praise the core gameplay and low price, but many hit a wall at the final world where enemies reduce all damage to 1 and the final boss demands a specific blessing. Reviews split between those who call it a chill, replayable run and those who find balance horrendous, with some questioning whether the developer has abandoned early access.
