The elemental card combos, esoteric gifts, and rings are satisfying mechanics. I love the idea of a wizard inscribing spells to each individual finger. The hand-drawn artwork is also delightfully grotesque, and I'd love to see more games in this style.

Love seeing numbers get big :)

$18 is kind of a big ask for a roguelike lacking any real meta-progression at all. I think it's better positioned at around $10-12, BUT - The game is artistically and thematically awesome. It meaningfully innovates on a growing genre. And it's great fun. I've seen reviews saying that it lacks variety, and while I won't argue against that, I will say there is plenty here for game design nerds to sink their teeth into. The simpler characters help you build fundamentals as you experience the campaign (which gets plenty complicated anyway), and each of the more advanced characters offers at least a couple of rewarding sessions of learning and mastery. The Paladin, for example, seriously challenged my ability to interact with his core mechanics while also planning ahead during fights, until it started to click. That's one of my fondest memories playing the game so far, and 7 hours in, having already finished a couple of runs, I still feel like I'm just scratching the surface of what's possible with the game's systems.

Addictive mechanics and incredible artstyle. The atmosphere is great and the game makes you feel smart, once you learn how everything fits together.

I have a personality that if I am lost I will not stop to ask for help or directions. So, 27 hours later, I finally beat the game with the apprentice. I probably should have played the tutorial first to cut down on coming close to rage quitting the game. Great game! If you buy the game, play the tutorial first!

This will always be my favourite game of all time, the soundtrsck, the look, the gameplay. better than anything from the AAA industry. with AAA industry i mean the games not the batteries. buy this game, worth every cent. abracacebra.
