Nov. 2024

It's an extremely cozy and chill mining rougelike! I really love the concepts they have going for it. Can't wait for more content to drop. I'm sure there is a lot I haven't seen yet still, but it does become a bit repetitive. But still a game I thoroughly enjoy! Had some hiccups in the beginning but the developers were very nice and tried to help as much as possible. Turns out it was a faulty CPU that I now have gotten replaced.

Picked this up when it was recently on sale. I really like the pitch of an extraction rogue-like miner/dungeon crawler. This game is still early access but I have gotten 30+ hours of gameplay so far. Given it is an extraction game I would probably recommend new players to store their stuff, and take some risks with gear they can easily replace to learn the mechanics. This is not a game that you can try to over prepare for and tank everything, you are going to die early on, so leave the run when you have something valuable. I played way too conservatively in my first 10 or so hours, and I would have learned a lot more if I had been more purposeful in setting aside runs. Played it on a Steamdeck, so some of the menus are a little hard to navigate, but once I figured out the right buttons there were no challenges. I would call this on the earlier side of early access, but if you like these sorts of games it is one worth keeping an eye on or jumping on if you expectations are aligned. Looking forward to more content and updates.

Oct. 2024

It has potential and the concept is interesting even though it has been done a lot now. For the content it is kind of pricey. It sells itself closer to a 2d deep rock galactic or zero sievert with extraction parts and various biomes, but it actually feels closer to an autoshooter games like Repetendium and Vampire survivor with less randomness, perks and replayability for a higher price (2-3x) Most runs will feel the same as the previous one, the maps are pretty empty and the combat is just holding the attack button to wave the weapon you equipped or shoot at the same interval and move around to not get attacked. Enemies have one attack that they repeat until they die. Pretty much just what you get with all the simple survivors style games which is kind of disappointing. Would still recommend, because they are updating it and it has great base to be a great game, but it needs a lot more to make the game worth the price. If you play the demo you basically played the game for now.

Pretty fun extraction action. Respawning enemies are kind of a pain though

Really fun extraction roguelite that I am having a blast exploring, I get really addicted to games like this and VS and tend to buy all of them, most are ok at best but this one stands out.. love where its at and can't wait to see where it goes!
