“I played this game after a hard day of studying. The music and the art style is so good. This game made me relax and feel good. The game is basically a classic style rpg.

“Played about 18 hours, husband played more. Very fun and addictive game! However...we started noticing some unbalanced issues, such as bow users ability to equip a sword and a bow. Bows are 2 handed, so should be treated as such…”Recommended · Steam review · Nov 2025 · 19 h played · Report / request removal

“Good game that stays fresh due to randomized items and the challenge of moving between regions. The game could use more variety in dungeon design, but it is overall a solid game.

“I like the game overall but I beat the TIer 1 difficulty on the first try. I used entirely passive skills and a bow, it seemed pretty OP. I tried a caster and wanted to go minions but Raise Zombie (even leveled it to 5) was awful. The…”Recommended · Steam review · Jul 2025 · 6 h played · Report / request removal

“It's a 9/10 for me so far. I've been looking for games like this. Something that would feel like Ragnarok but it has a good story and like Solo Leveling.
