How it feels

A lighthearted, retro-styled turn-based RPG that feels like a tabletop campaign played in space with a comedic, nostalgic tone.

What players say

Players appreciate the pixel art and sci-fi references, but many find the combat tedious due to regenerating shields and high enemy health. The UI has bugs causing softlocks, and the mouse-only menus are awkward. Opinion is split on the writing's heavy reliance on pop culture callbacks.
