How it feels

a slow-paced, strategic fantasy RPG where you manage resources and make cautious decisions in turn-based combat and exploration.

What players say

Players describe a turn-based roguelike with a static map and punishing random events, including unavoidable combat and item theft. The Linux version has been broken for years. Some praise the unique classes and tactical depth, while others call it a shallow mobile port with repetitive events and poor writing.
