### 2/5 — Can’t purchase.

*2026-05-03, version 1.3.8*

Needs an update, can’t purchase the full game.

### 2/5 — Devs y’all need to update this game.

*2024-06-01, version 1.3.8*

Great game but the devs need to update this again, I can’t even purchase it.

### 5/5 — Regret

*2023-04-01, version 1.3.8*

I want a refund

### 5/5 — Amazing game

*2023-02-16, version 1.3.8*

A-level game. Refreshing to play a well-thought-through rogue-like with a good sprinkling of storyline and the right amount of discover-yourself-what-to-do-next. Would be cool to see a bit more upgrade-your-weapon type things; although it has that and in a cool way where you could upgrade in a variety of ways. I was a bit lost at first but enjoyed the freedom the game provides. Reminded me of original sNES Zelda. Fresh take on this genre though; looking forward for the developer’s next title. 8-10hs gaming experience if you don’t research how-tos or play again; you can play again though because the map and a few details are different every time you play.

### 4/5 — Need some Fixes

*2021-11-29, version 1.3.8*

The game is great overall in my opinion there’s a lot to explore and to do. You can upgrade your character and fight a lot of mini and big bosses in dungeons. A great game to kill time offline the only thing that need to be fixed ASAP is the teleported to the airship to song bringer you can’t even click to teleport or chose where it’s like off the map to the side to choose where to go and to top it of you can’t even go to that spot it needs to be fixed but anything else I do recommend it for download.

### 4/5 — My opinion

*2021-09-18, version 1.3.8*

It is a super well down mobile game I just wish it had more story and a sense of direction but other then that it was a really fun experience and exactly what I’m looking to fo in my free time

### 3/5 — Really enjoy the game

*2021-09-12, version 1.3.8*

I really enjoy the game but there is a bug with the teleport cube so you can’t combine things.

### 4/5 — Great effort

*2021-07-17, version 1.3.8*

I love it. Also the negative reviews are hilarious (mostly) but ya some of the bugs are annoying

### 1/5 — Rip off

*2021-06-16, version 1.3.8*

Another one where you need to pay to play and it’s only a pixelated game it HAD potential but the developers had to ruin it

### 2/5 — Unrecognizable buttons and no idea what to do

*2021-05-29*

There’s no tutorial; I have no idea what I’m doing. Also, the pixel art is beautiful, but I can’t tell what anything on the HUD is. Even if there was a tutorial, make the controls, buttons, and items recognizable so we can remember what they are.
