### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-05-10, version 1.2.10*

This game is so good

### 5/5 — Bring on Caves of Qud to IOS

*2025-01-02, version 1.2.10*

Love sproggi. Can wait for the magnum opus to get the mobile treatment

### 3/5 — Update please!

*2024-08-08, version 1.2.10*

Good game but it really needs to be updated for modern devices. Please give us full screen!

### 3/5 — A few issues

*2024-03-30, version 1.2.10*

My personal opinion: 4.8 rating is far too generous for this game. Good game, certain times you’re left with far too little in your arsenal to beat the game on hard difficulty. Not because it’s hard, but because 95% of the time, you don’t have many choices in tackling certain obstacles. 

My other concern is the amount of content the game has to offer is just too little. The civilisation builder mode has nothing to offer, building serves no purpose whatsoever. The upgrade system enables you to have more upgrades, but that is really about it. 

Overall, it is average.

### 5/5 — Cute and clever strategy

*2021-02-06, version 1.2.10*

An adorable dungeon crawler with perfectly balanced scaling challenge, you’ll never be bored and you’ll never be too frustrated.

### 5/5 — A true hidden gem

*2020-03-25, version 1.2.10*

I can’t believe this title doesn’t get more attention. A hilarious and utterly charming rogue-like with just the right level of difficulty. You die, but are desperate to try again.

Developers - you deserve so much recognition for this game. Thank you for making self-isolation during the coronavirus outbreak not nearly as unpleasant as it should be!

### 3/5 — Bueno

*2020-01-16, version 1.2.10*

El juego es bastante bueno pero no está adaptado para pantallas grandes de iphone y la sensación jugable es un poco incómoda por este motivo. Además no está en español aunque no es impedimento para disfrutar del juego. Es desafiante y adictivo pero creo que está lejos de ser un port decente.

### 2/5 — So much fun until you reach Uppmas Point

*2019-11-20, version 1.2.10*

Once you reach Uppmas Point, the fun is behind you.

Unstoppable random enemies streaming out of dimensional doors. All the skill and strategy is for nothing. Total bummer.

### 5/5 — เกมดีนะ

*2019-11-13, version 1.2.10*

เกมดีควรมีไว้ติดเครื่องครับ

### 5/5 — ซื้อสิครับ รออะไร 555

*2019-11-10, version 1.2.10*

Roguelike rpg สนุก น่ารัก ตะลุยดันเจี้ยนมันๆ เอาไป 5 ดาว
