July 2025
Pretty Fun, Defintely worth the Price tag in my opinion. Nothing too deep, but still a quirky Romp. There is the occasional bug and unintended actions, for example gaining Infinite Attack, or parts of your mount staying in place. Fair warning, When you get a new Mount, theres no way to switch back to your old one or go between them. The Dwarf Mine on one hand is very good resource and way to get ahead in the games various Economies, on the other, it is extremely tedious. Small indie game so these are excusable, but you could probably get something better for 20 bucks, then again, its always good to throw Indie Devs some money.

It's a very cheap game, so I guess it's worth it, but it definitely doesn't have any replay value whatsoever, and in the first few minutes, you can already see what you'll be doing for the rest of the game, it won't change.

Monotonous, repetitive (and not just in game play but in content), but alas, highly addictive. There’s a charm to it, for the first couple of hours, but after a while, you just, go through the motions, as you go through the same things, knowing what to say to get the best outcome in some situations and playing chance in others and hope it falls into your favour. In short, it’s fine, lol. Get it if you want, if it’s on sale price though. It’s a lite Recommend.

Very good game, with very immature jokes. Mostly for shits and giggles, but the humour is kinda lacking and the story is hard to follow.
