Play Overview
The game is formatted as a rogue-like game, where you must move through a series of dungeons and where your progress is reset if you die. But, unlike other rogue-like games, when restarting the dungeon crawl, your character remains permanently upgraded and characters you meet remember you from your previous attempts. Each environment and character is hand-drawn in a cartoon style and is fully voiced.
This results in an action game where the narrative and evolving story also offer a strong reason to play. It combines fast-paced action, cyclical progress and an organic story. Each time you play, these elements come together in different ways to provide new opportunities for building your hero and new stories and characters to discover.

Skill Level
11+ year-olds usually have the required skill to enjoy this game. Still, it's important for parents and guardians to consider the maturity required to process the game content. It's a game where you need fast reactions and forward planning. Also, because you play through multiple rounds, you need to learn from your mistakes and make choices about the next round to help you do better. Older players get more out of the mythological story that develops.
