This is a brilliant roguelike that has a ton of possible permutations and is addictive despite being very simple. I bought the game just because I wanted to support a developer who put so much passion into their game. The art style is fantastic, although most of the art is in menus rather than the gameplay itself. There is also lore behind this game, which I'm having a great time unlocking. Even if you don't buy this game, download it and try it out. If it's not fun and addictive, uninstall it.

I greatly enjoy the gameplay, which is fun and every run feels different! A variety of pets and ways to alter and mix them keep the game fresh and interesting. Unfortunately the English translations leave a LOT to be desired and it can be hard to understand what things do, and there are very few descriptions of some of the mechanics, which are very important, leaving you to Google quite often at the beginning. For that reason I dock it a star.

The only ads in the game occur if you want to revive, and even then you can buy the game and remove the ads. Other than that it's a rogue like horde survival game, each game takes a while (up to 40 min I think) but most games will end much quicker. It's the dark souls of mobile.

Good stuff. Record is about 30 minutes, not sure how people get further. Great time sink since my games are anywhere from 15min-30. Satisfying learning curve keeps you playing another round to put the new knowledge to the test. Biggest gripe is the translation to English. Just press every button and learn what does what cause the wording in many regards is like broken English that doesn't make sense and does the opposite of what you'd expect. But you'll figure it out! Good game

OK this is kinda the perfect game. The graphics are simple (scribble/sketch style) but effective and mood-building, and the general idea is very simple. But the leveling process is extremely cool, letting you build differently each game. The graphics, while simple, become really cool-looking and complex. I love how you can power up an ability throughout a run, then try a different ability focus the next time. This is quickly becoming one of my all-time favorite games. If I were to have any gripes, they would be that it gets hard faster than I want it to, and the translations/explanations are not clear in many places. I've offered to clarify the English version for the developer - I hope they let me help out!

Having a great time playing this game, although I do find the amount of ads fairly aggravating. Spells are fantastic although sometimes the description isn't very clear as to exactly what it does. Fusion spells that I've so far been able to do are pretty underwhelming though, at 15 minutes in my fusion spell seems to hit like the level 1 magic bolt at the start of the round, spend more time running around desperately waiting for Armageddon to trigger again. It's pretty underwhelming to fusion.
