Dec. 2024

Fun turn based strategy monster slayer. All about that grind though, I will probably never get to max level. I thought it was a little light on story content, until I found out the development team consisted of like four people. Really impressive.

Nov. 2024

Yes.

Very dark

June 2024

I love this game. If the developer is around. I would love to talk to you in case you would ever like to try to expand on the game some and maybe make a fresh push at marketing the game around! I would love to spend the time to try to help. Its worth it.

April 2024

This is such a fun, well-constructed little game. I've spent over 40 hours on it, mostly in the Dream mode (the main campaign is very short). Highly recommended!
