How it feels

A measured, tactical role-playing game where careful planning and hand-based abilities shape the pacing.

What players say

Players enjoy the Rock-Paper-Scissors roguelike combat loop, but most agree the game launched with very little content, feeling barely bigger than the demo. Reviews point to a short playtime, a grindy upgrade system that dilutes choices, and some balance issues like infinite stun combos.
