I tried to give this game a chance twice and it just didn't work out. It's a very basic rogue-like, competent but just nothing to stand out. The only positive is that it's approachable so might be of interest to newcomers to the genre, but anyone with any experience will find it lacking. There's a few classes to choose from, equipment to find, and some consumables to find too. Each stage feels pretty samey and not very exciting to explore. As you progress through stages you can unlock more equipment and classes. There's a storyline there somewhere, but it's as generic as it gets so doesn't help the game at all. Visually it's ok, music is pleasant enough. There's better options out there.

have my gripes with this one, mostly about it feeling to mobile-y, not just about how bad the ui feels playing on a computer but the way the whole thing is structured feels like it was only ever thought to be something youd pop in on your phone to play but obviously the people at freehold couldnt possibly mess up a roguelike, h.avent really played a bunch so i dont have all characters and stuff unlocked but everything here feels so fun the way every character has wildly different playstyles, learning what are the consequences for killing specific enemies and specific tiles do to your exploration, how to efficiently use the items you get etc etc people seem to dismiss this for being deemed "too simple" (which i get, considering this comes from yknow, qud devs) but i dont think thats the case at all, the game has as much depth as it needs to have
