The first boss is literally impossible to beat. It's not fun, and incredibly boring to keep running the same first level over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, to make literally no progress, and then MAYBE get the right build of cards or items. 100 health character, with a boss that does 45 damage a hit, and two adds that do 18 each, oh yeah, and three turns of all your dice doing 3 damage a piece when you use them? Pass.

There is a core of a good game here, but it needs some serious tuning and embellishment. It says 25% progression, which I feel is Number Go Up enough to form a first impression. Almost all combat is slow and lacks decisive moments. Every fight is a battle of attrition, and there are a lot of fights. Enemies rarely do anything surprising since their actions are quite limited, so level progression is mostly Number Go Up. Character and deck building suffer from a lack of variety in terms of the effects of cards, items, and potions. The store screenshots will show: everything is a simple numerical increase, damage, defense, etc rather than something that actually changes the dynamics of the game in the ways that make a card game interesting. This is so that each one can fit the rubric of having a certain number of upgrades that follow a predictable format, which ends up feeling like the content is just mass-produced and padded for space. You can't gain or modify or mix types of your own dice. So most choices you have in the game are limited to Number Go Up. I am not normally a meta-progression guy, but this game needs more of it. Runs take a long time, they're pretty monotonous due to the above issues, and the early stages of a run start to feel a lot like work. Enemy progression follows a curve like a traditional roguelike, without the advantage of the slight edge provided by frequent unlocks. So repeating a run generally means investing a lot of time just to see if a character build will be viable in the first place. So I'm gonna make a lateral move and say Number Go Up too slow here. There are a couple of embarrassingly horny character portraits. I have nothing against them furby types, but keep the porn in your gooncave. I am not talking about morality, I am just looking out for the big titty rabbit lady so I'm gonna need to get in touch with her if you don't mind. I want her Number Go Up to my phone, haha. Don't tell her that, it won't make sense without context The UI and graphics are polished, and I didn't run into bugs. The music was catchy at first but annoying pretty quickly, since there are many points where multiple tracks are playing at the same time. Overall, there's just not enough depth in the gameplay to recommend it, but it might not be obvious at first.

For now, I'm giving this a thumbs down. The art, music, and play style are all fine, but there are so bugs (items that do not do what they say they will such as one that is supposed to revive you when you die... but which does nothing), UI issues like the mouse wheel doesn't work well when looking in the compendium, and if you drag the slider it seems to be backwards (dragging the slider down moves the menu up)? The most egregious issue, though, is the lack of balance. There are quite a few enemies who do such an obscene amount of damage per turn that you are forced to use all of your actions blocking, or either try to build a deck around the cards that nullify an attack completely - even then, they are "burnt" upon use, buying you only a few turns to actually go on the offensive. The 2nd boss routinely hits you with 60+ damage PER TURN (you have 100 HP to start with the original character, and even less for the second character <72, iirc>). That basically forces you to use over 100% of your available actions just blocking the tide of incoming attacks. A lot of the battles I would legitimately categorize at "not fair" - meaning there is no conceivable strategy that would allow you to win, regardless of the odds. You might as well abandon the run as soon as the enemy appears rather than waste time fighting enemies who can do orders of magnitude more damage than you can.

thumbs down for now =( this game as potential but need a LOT of work, there is 3 class available but the only good class is the first one , the two other are useless so it became boring really fast

It's not bad but I can't recommend it for it's price. Id recommend it closer to $10. It doesn't do anything I haven't seen in other more polished roguelike deckbuilders, and most of those games are either the same price or cheaper. The pixel graphics are nice, a standout. I would have given it more of a chance but after watching a few videos after my first run I decided to refund it in my 2 hour window. The turns play out like Dicey Dungeon but the cards and progression play out like Slay the Spire. If you've played those two games you know exactly what this game is. And to be fair its not a bad game, its just I have those games already and each of them do their thing better than this game does. That - mixed with some technical issues I had with the settings not sticking between menus - led me to refund this game.

Not recommended if you are planning to play it on the steam deck.

(10/10/2025) The game window size is smaller than the screen and the text is very small, it's actually hurting my eyes.It also doesn't have controller support you you will have to play it with either your touchscreen the touchpad or your thumbstick. So yhea if you want to play it on the steam deck i would say wait to see if the developers will update the game to make the experience better on it, otherwise the game is good, yes!

I love the pixel art and the art on the cards, but... * there is no innovation at all * the game is terrible at explaining things * the music is super annoying * everything has an air of half-cooked / low quality
