Rogue-like-like-like genre.
Pros:
- Neat UI;
- Well-designed;
Cons:
- Poor combat & upgrade systems;
- Repetitive gameplay (including quests and RWG);
- Disturbing music;

- No custom game/difficulty settings;
To be noticed:
- Death changes nothing;
- Unable to customize character;
- No offline mode;
