What players say

Lost Eidolons Veil of the Witch true ending completed. It's a good tactics roguelike. Good sound and effects. Disappointed there isn't high quality closeups in battle like Lost Eidolons.

Its good and fun tactics roguelike, everything has a good quality and is well done. The combat encounters could have more variety, but that didn't bother me too much. If you like tactics games or roguelikes is definitely worth to play it.

The level up system is extremely frustrating as if you have more skills in your pool it's less likely to get the ones you are looking for. Not having enough AOE can easily brick your run. The story set up was initially interesting. Problem is that it goes nowhere. Even the "true end" is just a quick cutscene. There's no resolution...
