### 5/5 — Well Done!

*2022-07-09, version 1.1*

A short, fun, adventure game with beautiful artwork!

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2020-09-28, version 1.1*

The music, art, and style of this game is top notch! Wish it was longer, but I also purchased the gif/bonus image to support the developer. Here's hoping we get a continuation of this game and other new, longer, in depth adventures!!!

### 5/5 — Brief but fun

*2020-06-17, version 1.1*

This game is easily beatable in less than a half hour, but still a good deal of fun!

### 5/5 — Just what I needed

*2018-09-15, version 1.1*

I have yet to finish the dungeon (I’ve died twice so far.) but the experience has been very enjoyable. Glad I found this, download it!

### 1/5 — Accessibility

*2018-04-26, version 1.1*

Voiceover users go for text games since most of the time we can play them. This one will need work and a version update before that can happen. Not being able to see the screen I’m going to guess the other inaccessible screen writing mode got used for much of this app (same used to show bluetooth keyboard pairing codes). No idea why apple did that, but that seems to be what happened here.
