Super fun and silly. It's so satisfying to annihilate so many enemies with a well aimed attack.3 found this helpful
Scratches the itch for retro-Gauntlet fans. Roguelite addition works well. Special moves are satisfying. Music is well suited. Always wanted a pet slime.1 found this helpful
Cool game and keeps you coming back for more. The in-game perks are awesome and varied and the challenges are a great addition which is jam-packed with nostalgia. For an indie game with a short development time compared to others this really is a gem to play and even better when playing with a friend together using the Warrior and Archer is a perfect combination and the other characters I have yet to unlock, can't wait to play some more! Well worth it!1 found this helpful
Still a short term review....spontaneously Love the vibem and music, perfect game for moving some monsters casually without being overly complicated. Art is kind of retro looking but with some cartoon shader thingy...looking forward to more sessions :)
