How it feels

A methodical, tactical roguelike where you carefully combine alchemy and deckbuilding to survive procedurally generated encounters.

What players say

Players like the alchemy crafting twist on deckbuilding but find the game repetitive and poorly balanced. Some report it went unupdatd after release, while others enjoy the difficulty. Comparisons to Slay the Spire are common, though many note it lacks that game's polish and depth.
