This game used to be so good. It was my go-to on long road trips/flights cause it was fully offline, had great progression/roguelite system, but now all the characters I unlocked and spent hours over the course of years working towards, are relocked behind NFT real money paywalls instead of the in game gold you earn, and used to be used for everything. This game now breaks my heart to open, and I urge other players to not give this the time of day. Also Steam version doesn't have NFTs and BS.

Yeaaah they got weird, also they stole money from players. Things that had premium purchases to unlock have since been relocked on a new payment system. They started putting NFTs in their game. There are better games out there. Try Vampire Survivors.

Trash game. You download for free then you are required to pay for characters to play. This game could've just charged from the beginning and have been honest about it. Throw in ads, and you can have yourself a ftp version.

It's a interesting idea but the fact they had to toss in NFTs.. That's gonna be a no from me. Having limited amounts of characters is a terrible design because then you'll have 1% of the player base able to use a set person and if accounts stop being used, they are gone. Remove the nfts. Can't even earn the currency to buy characters in game, have to buy the premium currency to buy nfts of the characters. Absolutely brain damaged devs. Would 0 star if possible.

I have a lot of hours on PC but it's not a great game for pc. I like this game a lot but it was clearly best on my phone. Found it and loved it and paid for it. I paid for the full game and unlocked everything and then an update locked everything again and added NFTs. So I have to play on an old version and manually update my apps. Don't recommend this game at all. That's just theft.

Giving a new review.... 1/5 This game changed for the worst. I paid for several of the heros among other things, only to be met with a screen to purchase the heros again. This is a great game, but the shift to nft and online only ruined it for me. 10/17/2017 Original Review 5/5 Don't think twice.... Just download the game! You will enjoy it! This is a great fun game, no in game purchases needed.... To me this is a game where the developer cares about the game and its player base.

Paid to get game, unlocked my favourite characters. Changed my phone. I reinstall it and now I have to pay AGAIN to be able to even play... Really disappointing. OLD REVIEW: One of the best smartphone games I have in my collection. After it was fixed I immedietly bought the full version.

This is a great roguelike. I love the art style and mechanics so I purchased it - worth it! Challenging than I expected and I only play normal mode which I have yet to beat. Some dislikes, no cloud save or any way to backup save, continuing the game will reset everything you've done in last floor, nowhere to find my event items, some wordings in stats are confusing (resist & resist to magic - same?), in event where goblin throw dagger and gave me a random item - no item gained! Bugs I guess.

I played this a LOT a couple years ago and paid to unlock a few things but like others, now on reinstall my "trial" has expired. This was never a trial game. I am super disappointed as I really wanted to get back into it. I want to play so much I would pay to unlock the full version...but there's no way to!

Edited review...1 star (from 5) because it's no longer playable after I put money down on it. Do not install!! Excellent game! Everything I've been looking for in this genre. I've run into no issues with glitches or unfair floors. Thinking ahead is a big part of the game and its been a great game since I picked it up. I have a hard time putting it down.
