How it feels
A whimsical early-access RPG that blends exploration with a handcrafted, slightly rough-around-the-edges feel.

What players say
Players praise the striking 3D ASCII art style and music, but nearly everyone notes the early access version is very short, around an hour or two. Some report progression bugs like softlocks and unclear death mechanics, while others find the combat too easy and the to-hit percentages unreliable. Multiple reviewers call it a proof of concept with potential.
