User Reviews
Pros
- Engaging roguelike concept with a Doom-like dungeon vibe and a synthwave aesthetic.
- Strong visuals and art style with appealing pixel-art graphics.
- Accessible and easy-to-learn gameplay that makes for a solid quick-session time killer.
Cons
- Ads are extremely intrusive and drive the experience, with frequent prompts to watch ads for ammo, health, and rewards.
- Ammo scarcity leads to heavy grinding and slow progression, often requiring watching ads or repetitive farming.
- Numerous bugs and stability issues—crashes, freezes, soft-locks, and XP/progress resets.
- Save/restore and cross-device issues on iOS—no real save function and purchases can fail to transfer across devices.

I gave this game a fair chance, but it's honestly one of the worst mobile games I've played.
The gameplay loop gets repetitive very quickly, and the game does a poor job of explaining how you're supposed to win or lose. Instead of feeling strategic, it feels like you're constantly being pushed toward spending money.
The biggest issue is that the game hides microtransactions behind buttons that don't clearly look like purchases. It's far too easy to accidentally tap something that costs real money—I've seen purchases up to around $15. On top of that, you're practically forced to buy things like ammo crates or other resources just to keep playing at a reasonable pace.
The UI is cluttered, confusing, and unattractive. Nearly every screen is filled with what looks like AI-generated artwork, making the whole game feel cheap and low effort.
Overall, this feels like an obvious AI-generated cash grab rather than a well-designed game. I can't recommend it.

In a nutshell, the gameplay is good and has great replay value. There are micro-transactions, but they can be easily avoided. Ads will exist (its a mobile game, so its normal)
However, there is Ai art in the game. If you don’t mind Ai, then ignore this.
The gameplay, mechanics, and everything essentially make it a great experience to play :). I have installed this game almost every time i get a new phone. I stopped playing last year due to the update that increased ad usage to the point where the game was essentially micro-transaction hell. However, playing this game now is great, due to the ad’s being reduced significantly (yes, there are ads still, but I personally don’t feel they ruin the experience.)
However, the usage of Ai art makes me not want to play the game. I’m going to sound like an english teacher, but using Ai to substitute human art feels soulless. It’s just a small nitpick, but i enjoyed the charm of the hand-crafted pixel art the game had before the micro-transactions stopped me from playing last time. It made me enjoy the game :).
