What players say

Very nice dungeon crawler, the sci-fi astetic is very rare in this category. Good character class identity. Solid music that doesn't get annoying and I found myself humming it. Graphics are simple but nice, designs are creative and there are some good animations. The story is nothing too complicated, but the wiritng is witty. My only criticism is the random generated maps, they are boring compared to the hand...

Its a fun dungeon crawler set in a cyberpunk setting where you explore different space stations completing missions for multiple factions I like the exploration and combat system, just pay extra attention to the difficulty of the mission you are about to tackle or you might get stuck in an unwinnable mission and you will have to load a previous save, you CAN abort some missions, but not all

There are better versions of this genre out there. Only pick up on a STEEP sale.
