Ratings and reviews

Overall, this game would probably be fun once I got used to the mechanics; they're just so unintuitive that I don't want to bother. Pity. I'll come back after there are some more updates and fixes. Edit: Yes, I went through the tutorial three times. It didn't include anything about gameplay--just the intro stuff about spells and rests. And then the actual gameplay (i.e., being in the dungeon) is unintuitive. It took me multiple attempts to figure out battling and equipping armor.

It's alright, though one thing is frustrating is the riddles as they put multiple answers that can be correct or the actual correct answer is wrong, one said something that doesn't move and some other stuff and I chose the only thing that doesn't move and it was wrong everything else on the options moves in some way or another. Also the "easy" mode I set max enimies and events and died so many times at the start I could not get enough coins to progress, floor7 max minions still extremely hard!!!

This has the makings to be a fantastic rpg. It has a great balance in combat! The interface is smooth and intuitive. I love that focus here isn't requiring military grade phone processors. The focus is on a game that not only functions but serves the purpose of being fun! It's not just a hack and slash for the "phat lootz". It's a solid mix of fairness and absolute brutality in forcing you to decide whether to pack your loot and pullout or risk it by pushing just one more room... love it!
