How it feels

A dice-driven, turn-based cooperative adventure with a punishing but fair roguelike progression through a procedurally generated fantasy realm.

What players say

Players describe it as a co-op tabletop RPG lite where random rolls can ruin a perfect run. The early game is fun and runs feel unique, but many say the difficulty spikes and unbalanced late game lead to burnout. Groups of friends laugh through the chaos, but solo players and those who dislike punishing RNG often bounce off.
