How it feels

A fast-paced roguelite where you fly and fight as a dragon, upgrading your cards between waves to survive increasingly tough invaders.

What players say

Players call it a fun little dragon-themed rogue-lite where you smash waves of simple, increasingly spongy enemies. The developer updated often early on and added controller support, but some report a repeat-tutorial bug and abandoned-feeling status. Combat is auto-targeting with mix-and-match abilities, and the price is praised.
