What players say

Players call it a charming retro dungeon game with procedurally generated maps that stay fresh. It is easy to pick up but challenging to master. Some are split on whether it is a true dungeon crawler, noting it lacks RPG elements and plays more like a pathing puzzle. The low price and built-in dungeon editor are frequently mentioned positives.
