*Update* It doesn't generate the same map and enemies

In my earlier review, I said I was broken because it didn't generate new maps. I fixed this by closing the app a few times while it was trying to create a new world. This fixed it. I think three new worlds the normal way now.

Hours of Fun

This game is a gem! How many options are there that incorporate party gameplay, tactical positioning, and replayability? Support independent developers - you won’t be disappointed.

Craving finally satiated!

Exactly what I have been looking for… A game that is truly, a Party-based Rogue-like. Reminds me of the good old days. What a life saver! Thank you!

A nasty bug that ruins the game

Yo! Game crashes at certain point and there's no way to fix it, save become broken.

Response from developer

Hi, so sorry about the bug. I've released an update that should fix crashes, but you'll need to start a new game.

Amazing game.

Thanks.

Tutorial? Procedural?

Either are present. Every new world I generate has the exact same environment, objects, and terrain. Not impressive esp when you advertise procedural generation. And there’s no tutorial which means you have no idea what you should be doing and what you can be doing. Tease.

Sometimes things you love come back

Used to play this back on my iPad 2. It’s a great roguelike, with a sprawling world, and most unusually, a party based system. It’s one of those one-person passion projects that often have rough edges (the interface), but have more content and passion than any number of slick, quick corporate money grabs.

Some years back, it vanished from the app store, and then was lost, I thought for good, in the 64 bit purge.

I was wrong.

I was scrolling through my uninstalled software list and I see it again, with a fancy new icon. No way, I think, but yep, it’s the same game. Only now I can use a mouse in iOS 13 and it’s even more fun than I remember.

If you like your old school roguelike dungeon crawls mixed with some open world exploring and classic Ultima vibes, with some nicely tactical combat, this is the game you’re looking for. So glad to have it back.

oh wow

I thought this game was dead! I remember having a ball with it when it used to be up to date. Good thing I rediscovered it! Never thought I would be playing this game again. #FreeHongKong 🇭🇰

WOW.

I cannot download it now because the company hasn’t updated the game. I think I’m gona cry.

Response from developer

Hi, there is a new version available. Sorry it took so long, and thanks for your patience, I hope you enjoy all the new features!

Update please

Please update for ios 11. PLEASE!!!

Response from developer

Done! Better late than never I suppose. Have fun!

Great!

This game is definitely challenging, but worth it. I’ve played through it so many times, both solo and with parties, that I’ve adjusted to my one complaint; the quirky interface. The game is based on the Dungeons & Dragons 3.5e ruleset, so referencing an srd might help explain things. One thing that’s not obvious is that trees, shrubs, and stumps provide cover from enemy attacks. Also, you have the option, when soloing and killed, to reincarnate as the creature that defeated you. This is by far my favorite aspect of this game; demon lords and ancient vampires are the best! Now just waiting for an iOS 11 update so I can get back to adventuring!

Very fun despite the flaws

This game is a very fun and very challenging old school tactical RPG. Requires a good bit of planning and strategy and you always feel like you're on the brink. You can tell the developer had fun making it.

5 stars despite the flaws - just know that this is a low budget indie game.

The single most sketchy thing about it is the situation of the "enable Permadeath" button. You have to swipe past it every time you go to the menu screen, and the "are you sure?" Is always popping up accidentally. One stray touch and your game is screwed.

The game glitches every now and then, and you can become stuck in the walls- be sure to save in case that happens.

WORST GAME EVER

It tried to be DND like, but failed. The graphics sucked, the game play was horrible, It almost always screwed up every command given to it, nothing worked right, and your characters were ALWAYS being wiped out. Over all, don't get this game, or you'll regret it. I wish I could've given it a zero, it was so horrible.

Tons of fun

This is a really amazing game, but I think you should add a better app icon, this is my option would make more people buy the game because it would look more professional

Much needed twist on the rogue like genre

I have played these games since the days they used a text terminal on a dec 10... and pretty much the whole time wanted one to be party based. This is it! Fun and fast playing as these games go. Bit of a learning curve, a little skimpy on info, interface "features", but 5 stars none the less because it is interesting, fun, and fits my handheld gaming style.

Good game, bad UI

The game overall is pretty good. It takes a few tries before you get the hang of it. The UI is very clunky in terms of trying to target the right tile especially when there are things on door archways. But once you can get past the initial problems the game gets a lot more fun.

Brilliant atmosphere.

More games like this please. Kicks sand in the face of dungeon hunter and eternity warriors. Real spectrummy feel (knight world etc) with roguelike and rpg elements. So cool!

Incredible

Absolutely incredible.

Splendid!

This pixelated RPG game is absolutely one of the best I've ever played.
It's randomly generated maps never let you down nor do the cute little NPCs/characters.
