| 2025-01-12 |  | | Not suitable for bigger screen. |
| 2024-11-07 |  | | If the developer is reading this, I hope you'll update the mobile version to fix some bugs. There are three and it feels uncomfortable: 1. The background music and sound effects volume is lowered so hard (can barely hear it) 2. My party can switch their position during the 1.362 update but in 1.450 it doesn't work 3. Loot Shields' def stat are always at "+0". Pleeease these problems really have to be settled it's ruining the gameplay much :3 |
| 2024-03-25 |  | | Excellent game, as well as mechanics, but it would be great if you could put a chest in the town so we can put away specific weapons for an area that is not available yet through the towns people. |
| 2024-01-26 |  | | I finally got it after missing the February sale on it and it was a great gem of a game reminding me of the 80s when I grew up to pixel games. It was one of those games known to go back on sale so I just waited versus paying full price. So far a fun game. As others said, strategy seems to fail this game which has too much roll the dice and hope for the best with many saying they died so often they grew tired of dying all the time and quit playing. Found the background music annoying. |
| 2023-12-02 |  | | One of my favorite RPGs on Android. It's sort of like a stripped back Darkest Dungeon. The elemental system can be extremely cruel, but it's worth it. |
| 2022-09-18 |  | | This is a great game, based of table top role playing with loads of humor and pop culture references. It's as hard as the pixel games from the nineties so expect to die a lot. |
| 2022-09-13 |  | | It is fun and entertaining. If I could switch my heros battle positions like it says you can I would give 5 stars for sure. I tried all buttons and combos, hell I even took to Google and steam. If the developer or a player could enlighten me, I'll change it to 5 stars. |
| 2022-09-11 |  | | This game is great! Turn based RPG with a deliciously twisted sense of humor. Great for killing time, great for game time! I'm being asked questions under the box I'm typing in, so here's some answers I dont recall needing internet for anything other than install. The game is not visually beautiful but it is aesthetically breathtaking, especially if one remembers monochrome text games. I've never seen any online pvp arena, but I've never been bored enough to look,also true for a store... |
| 2022-01-15 |  | | This game is EXCELLENT. It's basically tailor made to my taste: lots of mechanics, team building, fully turn based (more strategic), customizable characters, roguelike difficulty, pixel graphics, and witty story commentary. If you liked Pixel Dungeon, Knights of Pen & Paper, or any other game in that vein, THIS IS A MUST. I think some of the early low ratings were from a bug, and that bug is gone. This is gonna be my favorite game for a while. |
| 2021-09-15 |  | | It's probably one of the most annoying thing when one symbol mob solo's my full health team. It kept me from healing my team, using spells, using buffs, removing debuffs, using my special skills and attacking. Real balance. |
