User Reviews

A nostalgic, party-based roguelike with deep tactical combat and high replayability, driven by random maps and open exploration. It has active development and adds features, but users frequently report crashes, a clunky UI, and insufficient tutorials. Map variety can be inconsistent, and device performance differs—often better on iPad than iPhone. Despite these drawbacks, core gameplay remains engaging for fans of classic dungeon crawlers.
Pros
  • Deep, old-school roguelike with party-based gameplay and tactical combat.
  • Strong replayability from randomly generated maps and open-world exploration.
  • Nostalgic dungeon-crawler vibe with strategic depth and classic feel.
  • Ongoing development and updates, including new features like pinch-zoom.
  • Challenging and rewarding gameplay with meaningful choices and variety.
Cons
  • Frequent crashes and stability issues (including during world/map generation, saving, and app switching).
  • Clunky UI and controls that can be hard to target on small screens; learning curve.
  • Procedural generation does not always vary as advertised; some worlds feel repetitive.
  • Lack of thorough documentation or tutorials for spells, controls, and UI.
  • Performance and usability issues on iPhone vs. iPad; smaller screens exacerbate UI problems.

In my earlier review, I said I was broken because it didn't generate new maps. I fixed this by closing the app a few times while it was trying to create a new world. This fixed it. I think three new worlds the normal way now.

This game is a gem! How many options are there that incorporate party gameplay, tactical positioning, and replayability? Support independent developers - you won’t be disappointed.

Either are present. Every new world I generate has the exact same environment, objects, and terrain. Not impressive esp when you advertise procedural generation. And there’s no tutorial which means you have no idea what you should be doing and what you can be doing. Tease.
