How it feels

A deliberate, story-focused tactical RPG where methodical turn-based battles and recruiting creatures with snacks drive the tension of a stranded journey.

What players say

Players praise the tactical combat and character builds, but nearly everyone notes the game is completely linear with almost nothing but wolf enemies and a difficulty spike in the second half. A bug at the last chapter blocks progress for some, and the ending leaves others wanting an epilogue.
