I wish I could give it a mixed review. It's a fairly enjoyable game that's only held back by the repetition that is unable to be sped up/skipped. I also got stuck in an endless loop of negative followers and gold which was just unenjoyable after awhile. The whole reason I ended up in that situation is because I bought a cursed object that was supposed to allow me to see failure cards and only ended up showing me 1 out of who knows how many as I continued to fail time after time again even though I assumed i'd never fail again. I had a very frustrating time playing this game but I really want to like it. Just needs some tweaks imo.

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.

Is good game. Am too tired to write a real review. The 18+ dlc isn't necessarily worth it (I forget the price), but at least it's fun
