This game is truly fun to suffer through. I’ve owned this piece since 2019 and I’m currently still playing it online with friends, so I keep seeing all these negative issues people bring up in reviews. Personally, I’ve never experienced any save-related issues, and my Steam Cloud is still storing saves from over 6 years ago. I’ve played this game solo and with multiple people. There’s literally an option for hosting a private friends-only game — you just have to read the settings. You can also play publicly with randoms or completely solo if you want to experience it alone. There’s friendly fire, and honestly, I feel like that’s a huge part of the fun. Most spells are intentionally designed to hurt you, your friends, and the enemies alike. That’s just part of the chaos. The game was designed that way because it’s relatively short but has amazing replay value. The characters are really interesting, the voice acting is great, and the actors they chose fit the overall aesthetic and level design perfectly. Honestly, this is one of the best pieces the studio has ever put out. The only thing that genuinely bothers me is that my Steam inventory is overflowing with hats and I have no idea what to do with them. That’s honestly the only negative thing I can say about the game. If anything, it feels like a lot of people are just upset that the game is difficult — but that’s literally the core idea. You play to improve, and the challenge is part of the experience. Really fun game to hop into with friends from time to time.

One of the best couch co-op experiences on Steam. The replay value is a bit mixed, but having run though the complete campaign a few times here and on the Switch, it is still one of my go to games. Grab three friends, some drinks, and have a blast with this twin stick fantasy arpg.

This game is best enjoyed with friends. You progress through levels, upgrade spells and resistances, and collect cool cosmetics along the way. With spells that heal, stun, freeze, and explode—enhanced even further through coordination—you’ve got an exciting set of abilities that would make any RPG fan happy. Friendly fire is enabled, which means you can choose to PvP if you’d like, but it can also backfire if you’re grouped up or carelessly throwing out AoE spells. For under £4 at the time of purchase, it was absolutely worth the money. I’d definitely recommend it if you have a group of friends to play with!

One of my favorite games, with 2000+ hours on Switch and however many I have here. Does a great job of having dual-stick run and gun gameplay, while having a wide range of enemies, attacks, and elemental weaknesses and resistances that are challenging but approachable for a new player while rewarding a lot of practice. By far, it's the best as a co-op game. Unfortunately, there is no cross-play between systems. Currently (2025), PC has the most active players, followed by Switch. Personally, in terms of how much I've enjoyed the game and how much time I've spent playing it, this is standout one of the best, most valuable game purchases I've ever made. Love to Frozenbyte for creating such an exceptional title.
