Such a little gem…
I parted with a bit of cash to support the developer - so let’s hope he reads my review - this is a little hidden gem of a roguelike. No one is talking about it and it was frustrating when searching and finding all the other dice dungeon games… but it’s not hard to figure out if you’ve played these kinds of games before.
I think it has some balance issues especially with the insect dungeon (which is as far as I have got - I’d love to see more) which is ok to get through but near the end it’s impossible unless you have a lifesteal build. Now I don’t mind that - I’ll just repeat the run till I get the right cards… however, it’s frustrating to be in a fight with an opponent you can’t beat but you can’t get out of the fight as there is no menu or button to do so. I’m not sure I have the patience to sit through a slow burn fight that is impossible to win and keep pressing the next turn button until I inevitably die, for more than a fight or two…
So, it would be nice to have a bit of documentation, either in the game or somewhere findable on the interwebs. And, for the love of the gods, PLEASE give us a ‘Run Away’ or ‘Fall on your own Sword’ button so we aren’t trapped in a fight we know we can’t win!

Не проходимая игра из-за механик,которых в ней быть не должно
Какого черта я не могу пройти карточный рогалик из-за платформинга?Авторы игры дегенераты
Forced Ads
The game had slight promise, but I deleted it after the first forced ad.
Great game, horrible UI
First, the game mechanics are definitely fun. I like the combination of dice and cards.
Graphics and sound could be better, but for a one man project, they're understandable and decent enough.
The main issue is the interface. Game elements bleed off the edge of the screen, the notch/island covers up information (and screen rotation isn't an option), the tutorial is not all given at the beginning (like you don't get an explanation of your inventory until after you return to the menu and earn a free card) and also doesn't explain everything (like how the shield card works - the word "odd" on the card isn't self explanatory), and I absolutely HATE when games force me to take actions, especially when it involves forcing me to play - I want to be able to explore the menus and other elements before/while I play. SHOW me how to play, don't force it.
Finally, I realize this is a ftp game, but there are WAY too many forced ads. Also, I only see one purchase from the store that gets rid of ads, and that's a sale (Rookie pack) - is that a temporary sale? If it goes away, how else do i get rid of ads? ANY purchase really should get rid of ads, or at least any purchase at a certain price or higher (and make that clear to the buyer).

Great Game
Game is fun, challenging, and ever changing- as you can change the way you play each level based on what upgrades you want to use. Highly recommend.
