What players say
Players describe a fast-paced match-3 game with a constant enemy march that adds urgency. Many find it too easy and short, taking about a day to complete. The game is compared to a lighter version of Gems of War or Puzzle Quest, though some prefer its pace. RNG can make wins feel random.
