Surprisingly good action rpg. Behind the silly story and simple aesthetics lies a very solid game.
Has a Diablo-like loot system which is great, nice stats and skill system, lots of exploring and roaming, dungeons, tough enemies, puzzles and what not.

Gameplay to me feels like an old school Genesis a-rpg with a Diablo loot system, a good idea imho.
Very playable and very enjoyable if you're not put off by the graphics (personally i like them).

good game.

I played this one on the Xbox. Very nice RPG elements and very addicting. The combat starts off a little tedious, everything needs a bit to get going, but the further you get in the game, the more challenging it becomes. Well done little retro-RPG. I hope there's going to be a second part.

And what's all about that "bad" graphics? Okay, everything is kept simple, but still looking good to me.

It's a perfectly respectable little rogue-like that plays a bit like a turn-based Diablo. It's very casual though and I can't imagine myself ever loading it more than once or twice. However, if you truly love rogue-likes then you'll probably rate it a point or two higher than I have because I the only rogue-like I've ever really liked was Binding of Issac.

From what I have played on the xbox, it is an awful game, you can find better quality flash games all over the internet than this pile of sh**. It refused to work on my computer and I received no help so if something goes wrong, you are screwed.

Charming and addictive game, you can't go wrong for the price.

I'm gonna be losing some time and sleep to this one... It's like Ring of Darkness, kinda-ish. Lacks the darker atmosphere I prefer, and has a few (very minor) niggles, but it's very nearly almost perfect in my book. Job well done, guys.

Hmm. I guess I don't really enjoy loot-centric game. Always confused on which items to keep, equip, or to discard. But for a cheap game I think the implementation is good enough.

Just add better graphics and increase the price could make it a better game I think.

I was pleasantly surprised with how good this game is. It's wonderfully engadging and quite brilliant. I can best describe it as a roguelike Diablo 2.

Fun game, but a little too casual.

Plus, for a casual game, it lacks a proper manual (the help explains nothing).

Last, you _have to_ be able to rebind the controls...
