A lot of real dickheads in the reviews these days. Great roguelike, unfortunately the devs do not have to money to update the game, which is understandable. If you like roguelikes and are fine with waiting an undetermined amount of time, pick up An Ankou.

Oct. 2024

Having a great time with it, for $4 who can complain. It is a shame the dev ran out of funds to finish it. But I hope since they promised to finish it when time and money allows, they will.

Oct. 2024

I think it's good, I really like the art style and it's enjoyable to play. The dev team has run into some financial issues so they are having trouble putting out a new update. It's early access, don't give it a negative review for not being done or not being done on your schedule. I recommend waiting for the next sale or update before purchasing though.

Aug. 2024

Can't really understand the hate for the game atm Early Access gives smaller dev teams the opportunity to create games they can't fully fund on their own, though not every project reaches completion. The game is still very cheap with 5$ and you can have several hours of fun with it if you're into the genre or refund it. It's well worth the money for the content it provides, especially when it's on sale and no scam There are 3 maps to explore, 3 characters to play and a few different difficulty options With a bit of messing around i needed 3.5 hours for the first map

June 2024

Game is really good, it has great mechanics, but the studio is dying and it's heartbreaking to see people calling it an "Early access scam" . They know dev made a break because they have no money left and people still leave negative reviews because there's no more updates, knowing negative reviews will confirm the downfall of the game. It's harsh to see an unfair cycle of doom like that... Great game nonetheless, I hope the best for the devs in their future projects. <3
