Ratings and reviews

archero clone. i paid to remove ads immediately... most definitely worth it. after you level up your equipment, you are pretty much unstoppable. i preferred running through using a short sword. by the time i leveled up my favorite items i ran put of new areas to explore. i like the way map and room to room works. lack of story. just a gauntlet with a few types of enemies that don't change.

Nice little game, gets stale quickly though. Maps are large, making play unsuitable unless you have 10 minutes or more. While the "return to intersektion" option is helpful for backtracking, path indicators would be a welcome addition to keep players from getting too lost. Progession feels unimpactful, with stat increases being nearly unnoticeable in game. Unique item abilities add to the experience, but upgraded versions are simple stat buffs. Almost a great game, just needs more to keep me in.

Not without flaws but entertaining. There have been a few times I have had to reset the game because of unintended clipping. A screen reset would mitigate this but I wouldn't say it ruins the game. The ads are positioned in a way that isn't to intrusive. It has a Zelda like feel with a mix of action and puzzle solving that feels good.
