I loved the game. I bought it on sale and enjoyed all the content it offers. The gameplay is cool, and I found the mechanics of resurrecting the dead and using them like Pokémon really interesting and fun 😄. The story, although a bit cringey, is also pretty cool.

Second time I've bought this and I still love it so much! Relatively small dungeon floors between fully voice acted vn segments separating the floors, story is nice and satisfying,I love the buildup of their relationship and getting to see both their perspectives over the game!! Gameplay is a little slow and I personally turned off item and xp loss on death but training up the decent variety of monsters is pretty fun, also very satisfying to forge a nice weapon after a while Big recommend though, story hits great and I'm excited for revenant!

This game lacks a lot of polish, but it's still cute. The voices sound amateur and don't match the text sometimes (note: I'm playing with Japanese voices and Japanese text), the art is pretty wonky at some parts, the story/writing is a little silly. I struggled a fair bit with the dungeon sections despite being on easy mode, until I just randomly happened upon some items/weapons that were actually good, as is par the course with roguelites admittedly. Altogether, it's not the best, but it's fun, and worth playing. I also give it quite a lot of props for being about a lesbian relationship, which I don't come across as often as I'd like.

a great little dungeon crawler with a nice story presented in a visual novel style! definitely worth your time for how cheap it is and if you have the ability to play it with couch (local) co-op (or parsec if you don't mind the lag) it's got a decently easy to use co-op system!
