## What is SIGIL?

SIGIL is a location-based role-playing game with fast-paced action and a deep narrative infused with dark humour, intrigue and mystery. SIGIL transports you to The Gloam, a parallel dimension overrun with monsters, cults, delinquents, and criminal syndicates. As a bounty hunter in this dimension, it's your job to keep the peace, and to kill anyone or anything that stands in your way. There is also something sinister afoot. Locals are disappearing at an alarming rate, and there is a rumour spreading that demons have returned. Can you solve this mystery and save The Gloam from impending doom?

Key Features Include:

- Explore a dimension populated by bizarre creatures 
- Fight baddies in a fast-paced combat system that’s easy to learn, but has a lot of depth.
- Harvest plants, insects, and body parts to cook delicious foods and craft powerful hexes. 
- With SIGIL you can play anytime, anywhere. It doesn't matter if you're in a small town or the middle of a swamp, SIGIL will generate content at your location, so you'll never be bored.
- Level up and get stronger, collecting hundreds of different magickal items and spells. 
- Embark on missions to help the locals, investigate cults, collect bounties and solve heinous crimes. 
- Commune with powerful deities and demons. But be careful who you ally with.
- Learn occult lore, become smarter, stronger, more awesome. You will be the envy of all your friends!

### 1/5 — Won’t  Start

*2026-02-16*

It won’t even start. It’s so sad because game looks like it might be cool if you did.

### 1/5 — Interesting game, but could not connect to the server

*2026-02-16*

The game looks fun, but I was never able to connect to play it.  Hope they get this sorted out.  Tried multiple times throughout the day with no success.

### 5/5 — The gloom need you

*2025-11-07*

I don’t normally review or even comment on mobile games but this is definitely one of those games you should 100% check out it has gridbased combat alot of builds to go through the story is full of puns and without a doubt it can definitely compete with other gps games the devs are pretty active in the discord so give it a shot and see you in the gloom

### 5/5 — Super fun

*2024-09-24*

Awesome concept and runs relatively well, love augur system and can’t wait to see more!

**Developer response:** Thanks for the kind words. We have an update coming soon with some new features.

### 5/5 — Great game, ready for more!

*2024-08-06*

great game, excited for expansion and hope this gains traction 🫶

**Developer response:** Thanks Blaykk, we're excited too. We've got a major update coming soon and lots of cool surprises in store!

### 5/5 — Revised review

*2023-12-08*

(Based on latest version) So the long-anticipated update happened on December 5, and the latest version, as the kids say, “slaps”.  Rock-stable, more detailed graphics, more NPCs (including new ones like witches, which can be friendly or not), and even more generous in-game rewards. Finally manage to complete two quests which always crashed mid-combat.  If you like Ingress and Pokemon Go but are getting bored and want something a little weirder, a little more grown-up, you need to try this game.  Looking forward to the Kickstarter reboot.

### 5/5 — Fascinating Mobile Game! More fun than Pokémon GO!

*2023-11-21*

I was drawn in by the viral advertising (transdimensional street signs) around Toronto. I called the number and it led me to this game. The mob design is equal parts adorable and creepy, and the writing is clever. The gameplay is smooth and well-tested, I haven’t had any bugs yet. Good job you, guys! Keep the updates coming. It makes me get my steps and I have a great time doing it.

### 3/5 — Ehhh

*2023-07-10*

I’m sure I would like had it not crash to the point where I’m warily playing by not doing anything at all

### 5/5 — The best location based game!

*2023-06-08*

This one is more fun and way better looking than Pokémon Go! The art work is off the charts! It is full of crazy fun details and Easter eggs and the writing is hilarious! I usually skip the text in most games, but this game has me laughing to myself. I only wish there was some way to send money to the team that created this awesome GPS fighting quest mash-up beauty.

### 5/5 — Really interested to see where it'll go!

*2023-04-25*

I find myself fairly intrigued on where the game will go! The occult/magic vibe has me curious, though the gameplay is still similar to other location based games like Pokémon Go and Harry Potter (the location ones I've played) where stuff will pop up depending on you moving to places. So yeah, you can't walk places unless you're actually walking (@other reviewer confused about moving) since it's based on real world location. 

Since the game is only soft launched, I'll hold back on more judgement until more is there. But it is fairly limited in character customization which is one of the things I really get into to relate to the world, and there's yet to be any multiplayer interaction (which I think is important to feel really part of the world).

**Developer response:** Lux Arcana, thanks for the nice feedback. Character customization is something we've been working on a lot the last couple weeks based on feedback from you and others. We're going to keep plugging away and making it better. The game differs greatly from other LBGs in terms of the story and missions. If you're still playing, talk to everyone. You never know when they might need help or a mission that advances the story pops up! Hope you stick around and watch the game evolve!
