In-game
« J'ai fait la démo pendant environ 2H, le jeu est très sympa, le gameplay est facile à prendre en main et il y a de la difficulté et rejouabilité, je le recommande pour ceux qui aiment les jeux du genre ! »👍 anonymous review · 6 h played1« Its a bit of Doom, Diablo and Yet Another Zombie Survivors. Everything feels slick, polished and frenetic. Plays excellent on Steam Deck, although the text needs some optimization (very small at time of writing). For genre fans, this rocks. »👍 anonymous review · 19 h played1« A really good game from Ukrainian developers. Brings in enough diversity and variety to the, imo, pretty stale genre. I like it, and recommend at least trying it out »👍 anonymous review · 22 h played1« Bon jeu de farm, j'espère que des nouvelles map seront ajoutées. »👍 anonymous review · 22 h played« Très bon survivors like, enfin si tu sais passer de Azerty à Qwerty en 1sec avec un raccourci clavier hahaha Hésites pas à demander en commentaire si tu ne sais pas comment faire !!

« Honestly just falls off incredibly hard after the first couple of hours...almost feels like a scam. Fun for 2 hours to get that refund locked out, then the rest of the game just isn't there. Skip. »👎 anonymous review · 4 h played11« NON NON NON , il y a de l'idée et la direction artistique est cool MAIS sortir un jeu sans avoir la possibilité de bind son clavier en 2026 c'est NON ! »👎 anonymous review · 0 h played« Impossible de modifier les commandes déplacement qui sont prévue pour des claviers QWERTY. »👎 anonymous review · 0 h played« 2026, ne pas pouvoir changer les touches.. du jamais vu »👎 anonymous review · 3 h played« Gameplay trop répétitif, même pour un roguelite. Les graphismes sont sympas, mais les parties sont trop longues et manquent de dynamisme. »👎 anonymous review · 4 h played« Très bon jeu, tjrs envie de progresser ! »👍 anonymous review · 77 h played
