Dark Fairy Tale: Dreamland Survivors

It's a fun Survivors like with a fairy tale twist, some cards/ability systems and enough to keep you going for a while. I admit it could use a little more variety especially in level backgrounds/music as if you're on the grind to 100% like myself it can get a little maddening BUT that being said my only real gripe isn't even with this game just... please stop making *purely* rng achievements.

One of my least favourite games in the genre. The way your attacks work is just so backwards and you barely have any control over how you are going to attack. The system in general is somewhat interesting, but it's not something I wanna wrap my head around. The balancing is also terrible. There is a system in place where you can make the game harder by consuming things throughout the run. Well, have fun destroying trash-mobs without problems while boss-size monsters take absolute ages to kill. And the last thing: After every 2 or 3 stages, there is a somewhat random special stage. Which challenge you get is determined by luck, and these challenges range from 'annoying' to 'atrocius'. ________________ So, and after my run just ran under pure guesswork without me having control over most things, I couldn't see what the next run would change. It would be the exact same thing of random things happening while I can't really aim for any sort of build.

imagine crayons. you pick up a red one, but its green when you color with it, you get a blue one, but it colors in yellow. then get orange, but it actually writes in fountain ink and yellow laughs hysterically whenever it gets close to the paper. this game is kinda like that except its not as entertaining as the crayons. still a thumbs up for 2 bucks.

The game has a bad balance. The weapons are extremely limited, level up choices are terrible.

I'll try just about anything listed as "dark fairy tale" but this feels like a tech demo. Weird ass egg devouring which I really don't understand. Like, why do I have to manually devour eggs when they are just stat increases? It's like you pick them up but then also have to use them which doesn't make any sense. It's a pre-determined stat boost so just give it to me. I have a dozen eggs and have to manually eat them. What.
