How it feels

a pixel-art roguelike that feels like a random, challenging crawl with a cheeky, whimsical narrative tone.

What players say

Players praise a deceptively deep true roguelike with turn-based dungeon crawling across 50 floors, cute rabbit protagonists and a dry sense of humor. The tiny viewing area and minimal resolution bother some, and opinions split on rough edges like missing fullscreen and a fast-quit bug.
