What players say

Players like the hex tile map-building concept but are split on the game. Many praise the tactical depth and casual 15-minute play sessions, yet complaints about heavy RNG, lag past day 20, and no updates since 2022 are common. Some find it worth a dollar, others say it feels unfinished.
