This game is great and if your a fan of rougelikes than you need to play this. The whole game is very responsive and the pixel art is good. Each character feels unique and different and the grind to get each character to five stars doesn’t overstate its welcome. Each boss feels unique even if the early floor bosses are kinda bland. Each run is very short which is good in my books. Some recommendations for the Devs though: the grind for 10 stars is way, way to long it took me around 2-3 hours to get a character to 10 stars. That grind wouldn’t be that bad if you could play more than just that one character but it feels like you are locked into that character because the upgrades are so enticing. Also I feel like there should be some sort of secret levels, the abyss is nice but after a while it gets boring just like the regular dungeon. Some sort of secret level or boss or final boss would be great. Also I would love to see a buff to soul hunter, he is really fun but he kinda lacks in boss fights and his damage can fall of really fast. If the devs read this I hope they know the made a great game that genuinely slaps. Thank you!

It literally ends up playing like an ad watching simulator later in the game due to the sheer amount of things that one shot you. You hit the boss several times, inevitably it does a room wide attack, you can't do anything, you hit watch ad to revive with 3 hp, luckily all the bosses' attacks do more than 3 hp of damage. Rinse and repeat. Massive grind to upgrade anything. The game has great potential but is heavily limited by this. Then you accidentally hit give up (because it is oh so close to the revive button) and all the time you spent is wasted. Then you decide to delete the game. If you want to pay up, the revives initially are cheap, costing 1 hourglass, and you can get 45 hourglasses for $7.99, reasonable right? Except it very rapidly ramps up to costing 20 per revive. I appreciate the game a lot, it's very cool, but the way revives are handled and how many things outright kill you (and you WILL die, somethings are entirely unavoidable), just make the game as I mentioned earlier, an ad watching simulator. Hit something n number of times, do as well as you can, get cheesed, hit watch ad to revive, switch to doing something else, come back, repeat. Riveting gameplay. Later it gets to a point where you probably get 5-10 seconds of survival time per ad you watch lol.

Simple rules and control that you can instantly get the hang of. All characters and blessings are unique in their own ways making a lot of replay value. The game is free to play friendly and it’s art style and rogue like feel is simply charming. Lots of double edged swords like sacrificing your health for attack speed(axe blessing) or longer range but with the price of easier to get stuck between monsters(archer passive). Bunch of randomness so sometimes you will end up with overpowered blessing and other times you will get garbage. If you’re concerned about the controls which people keep complaining about, it’s really not that bad. If you don’t like swiping, you can just tap instead. There’s sensitivity too for you to personally adjust if needed. The control was a breeze for me to handle and I think it will be for most as well. Most runs don’t last too long so it’s quick to play through. Definitely a five star and you should give this game a try!
