    24 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game has received mixed reviews, with many praising the excellent soundtrack, particularly the lo-fi beats and licensed tracks from Monstercat, which enhance the overall atmosphere.

Overall, while the music adds a cozy vibe, there are suggestions for improvement in how it integrates with the game's scenes.

    • “Overall though, a fun fantasy deck building game with an excellent soundtrack and a welcome focus on empathy.”
    • “I really hope the soundtrack is released because it will be getting added to my regular playlists.”
    • “The art is amazing, the music is soothing, and the overall vibe is just nice :)”
    • “The music selection is fine and it has its own player that can be paused or skipped, but otherwise feels independent to the game and implemented just so there was some kind of music in the background.”
    • “But there's no map music or battle themes, etc.”
    • “I also found the constant laughter (without anything being funny) and the electronic music so annoying that I didn't last 5 minutes before turning them off.”
  • story
    18 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is praised for its engaging and activist themes, particularly focusing on environmentalism and resource consumption, all set within a beautifully crafted fantasy world. While the narrative is straightforward and serves as a commentary on modern issues, it offers a unique experience enhanced by excellent art and music. However, some players expressed frustration over save management, particularly regarding achievements tied to the final boss fight.

    • “I love the overall activist theme of the story, and the art style is gorgeous.”
    • “The fantasy story of overconsumption and a movement to save the mana well is super wholesome.”
    • “The second one being that the game does not tell you that it will wipe your save if you do the final boss fight, meaning if I want to grab the last few achievements I will have to replay practically the entire story to get all of the character unlocks again for a few of them.”
    • “The plot is straightforward without much drama, serving mostly as commentary on some modern problems.”
    • “The story is fairly straightforward but has subtle nods to themes like excessive resource consumption, climate change, and AI, all told through its fantasy setting involving mana and its impact on the world.”

    • “The mechanics of the game are surprisingly deep, and it feels great when you manage to find a synergy that works and stomp through an encounter.”
