    Played this when it was in Beta and am really happy to see the release, it's a neat, chill, and possibly slightly addictive +Minimalist art-style +Combines real-time combat with strategic planning +Satisfying game play from the start, and even better once you get the hang of it TL;DR - If you like chess and souls-likes you're also gonna like this!

    It may look simple at first, but it becomes really challenging as you progress in the game. The graphics are simple, and the achievements are a plus. Recommended for the price and to support the first game of an indie developer

    I got %100 game and I am sorry I cannot recommend. It was so unnecessary to play this. Cool concept but in the end it's just button smash.
