The Black Edition is good but I think that the BLACKED Edition would appeal more to the senses 😉

I really need to spend more time with this game, because it's absolutely amazing. An RPG where all the pictures are created using ASCII Art, but it's more of the viewpoint of a dungeon-delver, not a traditional tile-based roguelike. It's a really impressive feat that makes for shockingly beautiful environments and scenes, and it's very fun.

Just an amazing game for anyone who likes to take their time and grind battles. It's easy to sink hours into it without realizing. Great to have open while you're waiting for something in another game.

This game is soooo goooood! But why?! Why it costs only 1$ in sale and there are so less players? Give it a try! This game is a true gem. You feel the love they had, when they made the game. And it looks also so awesome. If there is a coffee link or something to support the developers of this game please let me know <3 Trust me. Buy it. Give it a try. Its perfect.
