How it feels

a tense and tactical turn-based puzzle where each move is decisive, with heroes that can regenerate and mimic foes but die in one hit.

What players say

Players describe it as a chess roguelike runner where you move a piece across a board and transform into beaten enemies. The combat is turn-based with class movement patterns. Reviews are split: some praise the unusual concept and base-building, while others warn of grindy progression and permanent upgrade choices that can lead to a dead end.
