Just finished, very good

It's PEAK it's like Inscryption and if you like Inscryption you will like this game.

Wonderfully crafted game. Tone, setting, and vibes are all in place, and lots of passion is seen everywhere. Pacing can be slow at times, but that's one of the two only real issues I see with the game. The other issue is how often it crashes. I crash about 2-3 times a session, which is super annoying. Also, if you look at your crew, it's almost a 100% chance to crash. It's not required at all to look at them, so this is passable as a crash. It is quick to open the game back up and continue where you left off though, which makes the crashing more of an annoyance than anything. Otherwise, absolutely wonderful game. I have had a lot of fun playing!

It's like Inscryption but a tactics game instead of a card game. I loved the atmosphere, and our demon "GM" was a perfect blend of creepy and funny. Just be prepared for how dark it is.

Absolutely fantastic; great art design, great structure, great pacing. The tactical side of things - the majority of the gameplay - excels at the slow introduction of new concepts and ideas: it starts off simplistic, maybe even a bit overly so, but it reveals more and more facets to its gameplay as it goes. Each run is paced just right; each run gives you enough resources for overall meta-progression that you feel like you've made significant progress even when you lose (always a make-or-break portion of any roguelike, in my opinion). The framing story, meanwhile, will be a structure familiar to anyone who's played Inscryption - you're playing a game with a shadowy, possibly-supernatural figure and basically have to scour your surroundings for game pieces to give you an edge in 'the game' (the tactics portion of the title). I don't know that the comparison to Inscryption (which Inkshade's not at all shy about inviting) does the game any favors, honestly... but I don't know many games that I'd say compare positively to Inscryption (which I consider an absolute masterpiece), so I follow the logic that if 'you're gonna outright steal (ahem... 'be inspired by'), might as well steal from the best'.

It's a neat looking game, like Inscryption, but you're a captain directing a crew. However, the game gives you no guidance for your journey unlike Leshy. Narrator, you give me excess information about every damn thing I touch in the room, and NO INFORMATION AT ALL when selecting my path for my journey. What the hell? And then you are going to pity me for "going the path to die too soon?" BRUH. Game looks cool, has great potential, but the Devs seem to have put little effort into the experience for a new player. The combat tutorial is useless if you're just going to die on turn one. Teach me the combat in a safer environment. Hell, don't give me the choice in the beginning- FORCE IT. If I am learning the game, I should not have a choice to go into what I assume is hardmode shortcut without properly learning the game's mechanics. Also, keep the controls on screen for the first few combats at least so I can learn them. I can't learn all of the controls in a combat in which I move once, attack once, and DIE. lol TLDR: Inscryption look-alike with potentially cool gameplay, but awful execution in teaching mechanics.
