« It was fun, until you realize every map is the same....creatures same....effective critical buildout same.... Still has potential, it was cheap, not a total loss. But it needs more variatiy. »

« It's a pretty cool concept but it lacks content. You'll see most upgrades in a single run and there are only 3 real "builds". A bit concerning there is paid DLC on the roadmap while the game is in need of so much. »

« It's definitely fun and imaginative, but after a few runs with each different playstyle, it gets pretty boring. There's not enough to do for all the runs to end up feeling basically the same »

« Lacks the satisfaction of gradual progression necessary in roguelikes. You will get your fill fairly early on and there is not enough to incentivize more playthroughs. »

« Le jeux est sympa mais un flagrant manque d'équilibrage avec uniquement 3-4 bonne combination de gènes/évolution un manque de contenue le jeux est sympa mais perd vite de son intéret »

« Le concept du jeu est très cool mais la difficulté me semble un peu mal dosée et on a vite fait le tour des évolutions. A suivre pour les prochaines MaJ. »
