The verdict
A cheap, pixel-art Diablo-style ARPG with deep builds, loot and endless endgame. Skip it if you want weighty combat, challenge, or online co-op.
Great for
ARPG fans who love theorycrafting, loot grinding and endless build experimentation on a budget
Main risk
Combat feels weightless, easy and repetitive, with too much loot and a tiny UI
What players love

Mentioned in ~1 in 5 positive reviews
