The verdict
A fast, addictive pixel Diablo/PoE-style ARPG with lots of classes and builds, cheap on sale. Skip it if you dislike heavy monetization, unexplained bans or unstable servers.
Great for
Diablo 2 and PoE fans who want a cheap, fast loot-grinding seasonal ARPG with many classes
Main risk
Aggressive microtransactions, unexplained bans and unstable servers can sour a game you paid for
What changed in the last 30 days
90 recent reviews
Recent negatives focus on unexplained bans, season 10 balance and drop rates, bugs and stuttering. Players also cite dev conduct controversy. Moderately confident, based on several recent reviews.
