    The game's story is generally praised for its engaging, emotional, and well-crafted narrative that blends Lovecraftian, biblical, and quirky humor elements, with memorable characters and intriguing lore. However, many players struggle with incomplete or missing English translations, which hinder full understanding of the plot and quests, especially in later chapters. Despite these issues, the story remains a compelling highlight for those able to navigate the language barriers.

    • “The story is a bit of a wild mix drawing from Lovecraft to, of course, plenty of biblical and Kabbalah references, with a lot of quirky character humor, while still managing to maintain enough serious vibe not to detract from the story.”
    • “The game is hand-drawn and you can really see the love it got while in production - the story is pretty good, makes fun to learn more about it with each progression.”
    • “An emotional story makes this game awesome!”
    • “The base premise sounds promising, but one cannot follow the whole story without knowing Chinese.”
    • “Crucial plot development will have half of a conversation inexplicably in Chinese.”
    • “What really hurts is that there is an entire chapter that is not translated, as well as many quests and dialogue with NPCs the further into the game you go.”

    The gameplay is generally enjoyable and engaging, featuring solid combat, replay value, and a unique blend of parallel worlds and RNG elements that keep each playthrough fresh. However, some players find it limited compared to similar games and are frustrated by excessive dialogue interruptions and incomplete translation or control explanations. Overall, the gameplay pairs well with the story and art, making it a compelling experience despite a few flaws.

    • “The gameplay is fun, but the lack of translation in plot important areas and incomplete areas, for example there are three control schemes (one for controller and two for keyboard), but the game only talks about two control schemes in tutorials and other areas, so if you pick the third control scheme, the game will confuse the hell out of you.”
    • “The gameplay has amazing replay value and I never get upset having to go through the levels again when I die.”
    • “The gameplay is refreshingly hard, you suffer from dying but you cannot stop playing when the game is totally RNG (maps, weapons, passive items...), every single adventure is not the same.”
    • “Not that there's necessarily anything wrong with that, mind you, the core gameplay still mostly works - but it's considerably more limited than what I've seen from similar games.”
    • “Maybe I'd be less frustrated about not understanding any of this if there wasn't so much fluff dialog interrupting gameplay... but if you're going to waste so much of my time with endless dialog boxes, maybe it'd be nice if you, y'know, told me something worth knowing.”
    • “The gameplay, while nothing special, is decent.”

    The game features a vibrant, charming, and beautifully crafted art style with painted, stained glass-like visuals and smooth frame-by-frame animations. Users consistently praise its adorable characters and captivating artwork, comparing it favorably to titles like Hollow Knight. While some note minor inconsistencies, the overall graphics are highly regarded and significantly enhance the game's atmosphere and appeal.

    • “The art style is beautiful, and has a painted, almost stained glass feeling to it.”
    • “Lovely made roguelite, a good mix between Hollow Knight, Dead Cells and gay furries (the last one might not be completely true ;) beautiful artstyle, well made frame-by-frame animation, charming music.”
    • “Very good looking artwork in this game, I finished the available content and I am excited to see more come out.”
    • “Also the art style isn't consistent and sometimes looks crappy.”
    • “The art style is charming, the bullet hell elements are neat (although they often feel deeply unfair with how few movement options you have), but all in all I'd give this a miss, even if you can speak Chinese.”
    • “Graphics are hella cute, music let me listen to it more than I played the game.”
  • music

    The game's music is widely praised for being catchy, epic, and well-suited to the unique art style and gameplay, with several standout tracks enhancing the overall experience. However, some users note minor issues such as abrupt changes in dynamic music, hard loops, missing tracks in the music player, and occasional looping bugs. Overall, the soundtrack is considered a strong highlight that significantly contributes to the game's charm and appeal.

    • “It's so fun, difficult but fun, once you get the gist of it, the art is simply beautiful and the 2D style is so unique and cute, the enemies and bosses are varied and challenging, the danmaku attack patterns are so cool, plus the music is also just amazing, I've played very little but I really love this game so far!”
    • “The music is good too, with one cutscene track standing out as my pick for best track (although it's not listed in the music player for some bizarre reason).”
    • “Lovely made roguelite, a good mix between Hollow Knight, Dead Cells and others; beautiful artstyle, well made frame-by-frame animation, charming music.”
    • “I also don't know if the music during dialogs is final, but it changes somewhat abruptly and quite often. I get that it's to fit the feeling of the moment (e.g., funny, sad), but I think less frequent changes would be better.”
    • “Another bug that I encounter is when you stay too long on the menu screen, the music won't loop when it stops and there will only be silence.”
    • “There is a lot of stuff missing, like some characters still using the old portraits, a full OST gallery, some cutscenes that should have played instead of being locked to an NPC, a better guide, and especially an English translation.”

    The humor in the game is characterized by quirky, character-driven jokes that blend well with its serious and mystical themes, creating a balanced and engaging tone. Memorable characters like Will the merchant add charm and wit, while the translated dialogue delivers both humor and heartfelt moments. Some feel that the accompanying music changes too abruptly during humorous scenes, slightly disrupting the flow.

    • “The story is a bit of a wild mix drawing from Lovecraft to, of course, plenty of biblical and Kabbalah references, with a lot of quirky character humor, while still managing to maintain enough serious vibe not to detract from the story.”
