Haven't played all that much or progressed super far in terms of completion yet, but it's a lot of fun. The deckbuilder portion isn't building a deck of attacks like a lot of roguelites are, instead you build sets of quipment with passives which change how you play. Challenging but definitely recommend, planning on playing a lot more of this.

Good indie title. Appropriately challenging. It also requires some luck to get the right equipment to make a broken build. The runs can be quite short, which is a good thing.. You can beat the game within a few hours with the right strategy.

The game struggles with many of the pitfalls of RNG based deck-builders and unfortunately the base gameplay loop isn't enough to overcome those pitfalls and actually make it enjoyable.
