A Hidden Gem!

I went into this game with no major expectations, but it really impressed me! The graphics are stunning, especially the lighting. The music fits perfectly with the atmosphere. The weapon system is fun, and the rune-based spell casting adds a nice layer of depth. The combat feels solid — good blocking mechanics, satisfying physics, and the ragdolls react well to hits. The puzzles are engaging so far, not too hard, but it feels like there’s still a lot of adventure left ahead. For this price, it's definitely worth it.

Atmospheric Dungeon-Crawler

Only got this a day or so ago, so not got very far in. But so far very impressed. Graphics are really good, with massive, expansive catacombs to explore and creepy enemies. The textures on the walls are nice and the lighting is very impressive. Battling skeletons and the undead is very satisfying, and the music lends the whole thing a creepy, ominous atmosphere. Slower paced than Dungeons Of Eternity, but I like wandering around, wondering what's around the next corner. Draw-distance is very good; some of the rooms are really vast. Be nice if the resolution could be slightly higher to make everything really pop out. Maybe with the Quest's proposed 10% performance hike, this could be addressed in the future. And a few more choices in the Settings would be welcome. No height adjustment is available, but not really a problem for me. Overall, really good so far. Don't think I'll be getting bored of this anytime soon. Update: Been playing for a month or so now, on and off, and really enjoying the nice blend of puzzles cleverly woven into the action. It's got an atmosphere all of it's own, this game! Maybe it's the music, or the relaxed pace. Anyway, definitely going to stick with it to the end, which is more than can be said for most games out there.

Awesome Game!!

I bought this game a few months ago but I have finally gotten around to playing it and I’m really enjoying it. It is a singleplayer dungeon crawler,similar to of Dungeons of Eternity with a singleplayer focus. The graphics are decent,the combat is quite as refined as DoE but still very much enjoyable. There are some light puzzles to solve to unlock certain doors to progress through the dungeons. The dungeons are of decent size too. I haven’t ran into any bugs and the game has ran nice and smooth. It is a shame this game hasn’t gotten the attention it deserves. If you are into dungeon crawlers,this is definitely worth checking out

Pretty good

Game was pretty good, probably say worth $10 or so. Few things that could be improved: -Turning speed: should be faster. Even when I changed it to the highest speed in the game, it was still pretty slow. -running should be an option. The rooms are big. So it gets very tedious walking stones around. Also, if enemies start surrounding you, the character moves too slow for strafing quickly. There needs to be a running option to move faster. -I don’t know if it’s a bug or not, but I don’t always feel the haptics when I strike an enemy.

Nice old-school feeling dungeon crawler

I've played through till you get to the first really big open area and so far I'm really liking this one. Has a old-school feel to it. Really liked the dark corridor where i had to use the torch, hoping theres more areas like that 😀 Got the bow now and finished the first area, I will say that last puzzle had me stumped for second as I didnt realize what I was supposed to interact with. Made it to the Dragons home area, game just keeps getting better 😀 I kinda wish it was more obvious what to do to summon the Dragon but I managed to pass him first try 😅 after that theres a minor bug that had me stuck for a bit but after looking on reddit I found out what I was supposed to do and the dev is aware of the bug and should be fixing it soon hopefully.
