### 5/5 — Más baldosas para más niveles

### 5/5 — Pretty much perfect

*2022-04-23*

You go around shooting baddies with weapons you pick up completing side quests along the way to save your farm animals.

It’s charming. It’s simple. And it’s not aggressive freemium.

Добавьте пожалуйста 5 новых дверей 1:древо которая открывается после убийств врагов 2:колючая дверь можно открыть любым ключом но она наносит ущерб 3:живая дверь после закрытия не откроется 4:обычная дверь можно открыть подойдя к ней 5: запертая дверь нельзя открыть является декором и возможность посмотреть что ждёт в следующей комнате ведь без дверь не видно что за стеной
