April 2025
Very grindy, very repetitive, but overall it's fun. If you wanna blaze through the campaign, just grab a gunslinger and make a crit build only leveling up precision and ferocity, you literally win or die in the first 15 seconds of any map.

Small simple tactics game, unfortunately is a bit too simple, but good way to spend some hours if you want a more relaxing experience

Fun turn based strategy monster slayer. All about that grind though, I will probably never get to max level. I thought it was a little light on story content, until I found out the development team consisted of like four people. Really impressive.

I love this game. If the developer is around. I would love to talk to you in case you would ever like to try to expand on the game some and maybe make a fresh push at marketing the game around! I would love to spend the time to try to help. Its worth it.
