Why buy on GOG.COM?
DRM FREE. No activation or online connection required to play.
You click tiles and hope for something shiny. There is very, very, little actual choice. So if you want a random-reward game and not spend lots of money in the casino then wait for a sale on this. Other than that the game is quite nice looking and very functional.
Probably too old for some of those reading this, but this is very reminiscent of a certain age of flash games of Kongregate or Armored Games during ~2010 in both style, gameplay, and polish.
The one I recall the closest would be Dungelot which upon checking wiki for its spelling actually references this game and vise versa. So not exactly original material even back then.
It actually has a decent bit more strategy than some reviewers suggest (Dungelot was a lot simplier), but still meant to be very easy to pick up and play through.
That said, most times you'll be just dual wielding max str (save to meet req. for valuable equips) with +hit equips and using skills whenever you can.
Still a generally decent game but hasn't aged too well or badly.
However, it also has some really odd decisions that set it back.
Gold is kept exactly as is in the dungeon and exiting, making using gold unattractive as it'll slow down your meta progression.
It has most of its tutorial... on random tiles as you progress through the dungeon. Some of which useful even at the beginning. Similar to hiding valuable info on loading screens but arguably worse.
Right click isn't as universal as it should be, with many tiles not having it and some things are triggered by it.
Full heal on lvl up is a staple but isn't too fitting for survival games and unlike desktop, you can't easily plan for it.
Many things are really really expensive and while you get a lot more gold later on, these items and unlocks should probably hide themselves until you are comfortable seeing their prices.
You can kill 10 minutes, or spend an hour grind. This is not a title that demands much from the player. it is fun thoug, and challenging enough to be worth replaying.
As a huge fan of both rougelikes and rougelites, I can't recommend this game enough. Devs took something good from several other rougelikes, and made a beautiful little game Seems pretty easy on paper, but actually very challenging when you decide to dive deeper. Huge replayability, big number of items, spells, monsters and events to keep you busy.
This game is waiting for a review. Take the first shot!
