Fun and enjoyable gameplay with a unique twist on the roguelite genre allowing manipulation of enemy stats and multiple ways to defeat them.
Cute and charming art style with well-designed characters and a smooth gameplay experience.

The gameplay features an interesting roguelite structure with a fun loop of collecting relics to modify core mechanics, supported by appealing art and good game feel. However, some users feel the concept is underutilized, with more emphasis placed on external scenes than on developing deeper gameplay. Overall, it offers enjoyable and engaging mechanics despite occasional simplicity.

- “Very cool game with nice art and interesting concepts that trivialize the gameplay.”
- “Enjoyable gameplay loop!”
- “Waste of a really cool concept on a minimum viable product where they clearly cared more about the cutscenes than the actual gameplay”
