How it feels
A tactical turn-based RPG where you use the environment as a weapon against enemies in a dark fantasy world.

What players say
Players describe this as a tactical puzzle game more than an RPG, often comparing it to Into the Breach. Combat relies on pushing enemies into environmental hazards with deterministic AI. Some praise the clever level design, while others find later stages frustrating. The game is reportedly abandoned, with no updates after early 2024, and lacks an animation speed option.
