Ratings and reviews

This game is almost perfect, and has instantly become one of my all time favorites, may even become my top favorite game ever made. The art style, music, gameplay etc. is all phenomenal, I'm very impressed with how smooth it is and how the game is with progression. I would to see a few extra things added, but as it is, it's fantastic. I'm beyond impressed that this was done by one man, keep up the amazing work Tom! 👏

This game is a blast! It has strong Runescape vibes with decent crafting and gathering systems. The skills and progression feel good too. This is the perfect mobile game time sink. It's easy to pick up and put down whenever you want. Builds are fun to experiment with, and the dungeon crawling is just tricky enough to keep me engaged. I ended up buying it on PC too. I look forward to anything else coming from this developer!

Have to say I walked into this game not expecting much. But all in all it has good lore, the drive to want to earn better loot is there even if they give you "steel" gear almost right off the bat which makes things really easy in the beginning. (South of first city) the card game is fun, it's basically Gwent but with a touch of the card game from final fantasy 9. It's very repetitive but besides that has alot going for it.
