Chudo-Yudo Games development team and publisher Targem Games were inspired by such “roguelikes” as Hades, Curse of the Dead Gods, Binding of Isaac, Dead Cells, and Risk of Rain. We took the best, added our own ideas and got a game that will appeal to beginners and experienced players of the Rogue-lite genre alike.

Здесь русский дух, здесь Русью пахнет!
Хороший проект, душевный такой, со старославянским колоритом. ПЛЮСЫ - прикольно сочетать руны, дают разные эффекты - играя изначально за обычного рекрута мы постепенно открываем новые классы героев, вроде мечника, лучника и т.д - ламповая и сказочная атмосфера - медитативный геймплей, скорость игры не быстрая, но от этого она не становится менее интересной МИНУСЫ - однообразие ланшафта, сами локации неплохие и разные, рандомайзер тоже работает, но как то в рамках одного биома комнаты слишком похожи друг на друга Хотелось бы увидеть продолжение с развитием тематики, контента и геймплея.
Очень хороший рогалик со сбалансированной прокачкой и градуально растущей сложностью. Сеттинг, сюжет и дополнительные задания (а также их влияние на прокачку при выполнение) - очень порадовали! Почему у достойной игры так мало отзывов?
很垃圾,地图太空旷,互动也很少
Отличная игрушка, которая затягивает, ровно после того как понял механику и закупился парочкой улучшений. Отдельное удовольствие - комфортная оптимизация игровой механики под управление на геймпаде.
Russian mythology, quite comfortable playing with a keyboard, rogue-lite.
кайф, вайб
Каждый раз начинать с начала - пытка, а так игра понравилась, добавить режим, где ты ресаешься со своей прокачке на лвле - ахн игра, вообщем дошёл до кощея и сдох, допройду на ютубе, если бы были сохры - игра ахн
不至于手残的人望而却步,还可以
