### 3/5 — Progress doesn't save

*2026-06-06, version 1.0.6*

Game looks really cool but my progress keeps resetting every time I leave the app

### 4/5 — Good game but…

*2024-10-07, version 1.0.6*

It’s a good game but once you beat it you can not restart it you are also stuck in a forever cutscene after getting all upgrades. I thought there was 2 endings 1 where you don’t unlock all upgrades and 1 where you unlock all upgrades

### 3/5 — Fun….buuuut

*2024-07-18, version 1.0.6*

This game at first glance is super fun and charming but quickly you’ll find the bugs that cause you to restart your run. And unfortunately progression is slow. Would love to see it updated and fixed a little

### 3/5 — Great game with many bugs

*2024-04-17*

A fun, beautiful game with compelling gameplay/upgrade loop. This makes it all the more disappointing when encountering bugs. Coins disappearing, falling through walls in dungeons, and being unable to collect any red gems (which is game breaking) are just a few bugs I have run in to and would love it if the developer game this some love.

### 4/5 — Beautiful Art and Addictive Gameplay Marred by Frustrating Bugs

*2024-01-07, version 1.0.6*

I've been captivated by this game for a while now. It masterfully blends nostalgia with modern gaming sensibilities. The art style is a standout, beautifully crafted to evoke the classic video games of yore, and they absolutely nailed it. It’s not just about looks, though; the gameplay is genuinely addicting, offering an almost endless loop of exploration and discovery that keeps pulling me back in.

However, my experience has been significantly dampened by a couple of major bugs. Firstly, there's an issue with the imp companion. Once you complete a quest from the notice board to unlock this companion, everything seems fine, until you try to swap it for another. If you do, the imp is lost forever, and oddly, the same quest appears again on the board but is impossible to complete a second time.

Another critical bug involves the passive slots you unlock through progression. As you upgrade the castle, you unlock these slots, but if you unequip all your passive items, the slots disappear permanently. This is particularly frustrating as it basically permanently nerfs your character. It appears that a few of them reappeared, but not the same amount as before.

These bugs are more than just minor inconveniences; they significantly hinder what could have been an outstanding gaming experience. This has the potential to be a mobile game masterpiece, but these frustrating issues need urgent attention. That is to say… I want my imp back!

I hope the developers will address these problems soon, as the game truly deserves to shine without these flaws. Easily a 5 star masterpiece if these issues are fixed.

### 1/5 — Miserable without a gamepad

*2023-10-07, version 1.0.6*

The touch controls are too wonky.  Needs controller support.

### 5/5 — GREAT GAME!

*2022-12-02, version 1.0.6*

I have no idea why this game doesn’t have all 5 star reviews! Such an awesome game! Great old school pixelated animation, funny story-line, entertaining mixture of hack & slash plus mining… what more could you ask for? It takes a little bit to really get into so give it time, you won’t regret it!
P.S. Now that I’ve played this game for quite a while I keep running into a force close big, which is very frustrating! Seems like it happens when I try and enter a new door in a dungeons in the mine. Please fix! I love this game!

### 1/5 — Rip off and unplayable

*2022-09-09, version 1.0.6*

First off there is a full ad supported version.  Second, the game is unplayable due to the horrible controls.  Otherwise it looks like it would be great.  The pixel art looks good.  I’m so tired of the apple store and how it rips people off.  We buy these apps that don’t work and lose our money.

### 5/5 — Great game and left me wanting more

*2022-09-07, version 1.0.6*

I bought the game because I liked what I saw, and I couldn’t put it down until I finished it. I wish there was more! Like a D&M2!!!

### 3/5 — Bleh. Casual at best

*2022-07-07, version 1.0.6*

With mfi support this lack lustre gem would shine; unfortunately, limiting orientation to portrait and limiting the “customizable” HUD to the bottom 24% of the device makes this game practically unplayable for me. Its hard to time and line up attacks while incorporating blocks with the shield.     If you aren’t picky, and deaths out of your control don’t frustrate you I’d recommend it; otherwise, move on.
