Jan. 2025

Second time I've bought this and I still love it so much! Relatively small dungeon floors between fully voice acted vn segments separating the floors, story is nice and satisfying,I love the buildup of their relationship and getting to see both their perspectives over the game!! Gameplay is a little slow and I personally turned off item and xp loss on death but training up the decent variety of monsters is pretty fun, also very satisfying to forge a nice weapon after a while Big recommend though, story hits great and I'm excited for revenant!

Jan. 2025

Fun and fairly short Rogue-Lite style of game with plenty of options to augment your experience. I personally chose to turn level losing off because its very punishing in the early game, but once you get good enough gear you're basically unkillable so long as you're still looking out. It would likely have taken me much longer to beat had I kept level losing on, but that is just padding for time in my opinion. Overall very fun and worth the purchase in my opinion, clearly a lot of passion and work went into this game. if nothing else I LOVE the soundtrack, stellar work on that.

This game lacks a lot of polish, but it's still cute. The voices sound amateur and don't match the text sometimes (note: I'm playing with Japanese voices and Japanese text), the art is pretty wonky at some parts, the story/writing is a little silly. I struggled a fair bit with the dungeon sections despite being on easy mode, until I just randomly happened upon some items/weapons that were actually good, as is par the course with roguelites admittedly. Altogether, it's not the best, but it's fun, and worth playing. I also give it quite a lot of props for being about a lesbian relationship, which I don't come across as often as I'd like.

a great little dungeon crawler with a nice story presented in a visual novel style! definitely worth your time for how cheap it is and if you have the ability to play it with couch (local) co-op (or parsec if you don't mind the lag) it's got a decently easy to use co-op system!

Obtaining Necromancer powers to save your dead girlfriend is morally good
