What players say
Fun, simple, short. Love da vibes, the graphics, the score. Really excited to see what all they added to the sequel.
2 more reviews, 1 not recommended
Very good streamlined dungeon crawler which reminds me of Wizardry and Akalabeth.
The game is what it is: A really simple little dungeon crawler with minimal manual gameplay. Nothing wrong with that, but I'd probably recommend buying the sequel for a little more texture and skipping this one.
