The gameplay of this dungeon crawler RPG is praised for its depth and complexity, appealing to genre fans, but it suffers from frustrating map design and a lack of clear mechanics. While the class and race options are enjoyable, the reliance on RNG and the encouragement of save scumming detracts from the overall experience. Additionally, the implementation of certain mechanics, such as guaranteed escape opportunities, undermines the challenge of exploration.

- “RNG everywhere, mechanics with minimal explanation, and more are here.”
- “I love the classes and the races, but the actual gameplay left me cold.”
