How it feels
Exploring procedurally generated dungeons with grid-based movement and real-time combat, feeling like a nostalgic, low-stakes mystery adventure.

What players say
Players praise the hand-drawn art style but the game is held back by janky controls, bugs, and a lack of guidance. It is a short dungeon crawler, around 3-6 hours, and players are split on whether the roguelite structure justifies multiple runs.
