    21 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story has received mixed reviews, with some players finding it engaging and well-narrated, while others criticize it as simplistic and lacking depth, often summarizing it as a basic quest of "corruption, kill the dude."

  • grinding
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be unbalanced and excessive, particularly in resource gathering and character unlocking, with some characters feeling broken or unplayable. While there is some variety and progression, the overall experience is marred by the need for significant grinding to succeed and enjoy the game fully.

    • “The balance is pretty bad, the resource gathering is grindy, some characters are blatantly broken, and others border on unplayable.”
    • “When you unlock the rest and try them out, they seem like the battles were not balanced for them at all, and some of them can't even get through a run without lots of grinding/investment.”
    • “Seems to be pretty grindy to unlock other characters too.”
  • atmosphere
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

  • replayability
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's replayability is mixed; while some players find it lacking a strong hook for repeated play, others appreciate the variety of special tarot ability cards and relics that enhance build diversity.

    • “Meanwhile, a variety of special tarot ability cards and relics you get randomly on a run will help refine your build, offering a good amount of replayability.”
    • “Luckily, the four playable characters have distinctive playstyles, while the relics and tarot cards we can find are great replayability boosters, bringing both positive and negative effects to each run.”
    • “This can be a fun few hours, but it lacks a hook for replay value, at least for myself.”
    • “Once you've completed the game, there's little incentive to play it again.”
    • “The game feels repetitive after the first playthrough, making it hard to justify a second run.”
