How it feels

A tense and methodical sci-fi action roguelike where each run through procedurally generated subterranean levels demands careful exploration and combat to slowly improve your gear and skills.

What players say

Players praise the fun fast-paced combat and class variety but are split on the lack of a map, which causes frustration and confusion. Many note the enemy and level variety is low, with runs feeling too long for the amount of content, and bosses rely on homing attacks that require prior knowledge to avoid.
