EDIT: I was contacted by the devs and talked through some troubleshooting. That is some serious customer service right there!

They released a patch that fixed most of the problems I was having, as well as pointing out an issue with AVAST anti-virus (in case anyone else is running it). This is a dedicated team really looking to provide a quality product, and they completely have my support.

This is a great project and I'm excited to see where it goes. And the devs are very closely listening to all of the feedback, which is fantastic!

There is definitely lots of potential here. The comments so far are mostly positive, other than the expected bugs and glitches (which some people just have to complain about even in Early Access). Nothing that should deter you from trying out this fun little dungeon crawler that's even more fun with your friends! Multiplayer ftw.

Worth giving a try if you're looking for a nice loot fest dungeon crawler. One with constant updates and new features being added, at that.



Edit: As of this week (11/28) I was interviewed and brought onto the dev team at Animvs. Although an exciting opportunity, I wanted to very strongly point out this had nothing to do with my initial review of this product multiple weeks ago (which originally started out as a negative thumbs down!) I am proud and excited to be helping mold this project into something the community both wants and deserves. I will try to respond back to everyone that reaches out with questions.

Not worth for 20 dollars, has good potential and a good idea but isn't quite a experience right now. Possibly sound cues, music cues, sound effect changes, smoother animations and AI changes could make this work until further updates give the game some depth. Until then i spent most of the time lost then bored. Love the idea but not worth the money.

Decent start for an early access game. I like the idea of the setting of this game. Fun RPG to play with friends when you want to dungeon dive for awhile. Graphics are good. Runs smoothly. Minor bugs still being worked out here and there. I talked with the game studio making it by steam and facebook and they actually write back, fast. I would reccommend this game and will keep watching it for all future patches and improvements.

Sadly the game has been abandoned again?

I like the concept of the game and whats here is worth a play, but I don't think its worth $20.

*WILL EDIT IF DEV COMES BACK*

Played a bit of it with two friends, love the game, love the idea but the stability is not good. I'm running a 1070 and i7 and am still having pretty bad frame drops, almost to unplayability. I appreciate your guys' work but please work on the frame problems before anything else!

Edit: As of 11/11/2018 The game has improved vastly performance wise. There are still some frame drops here and there in very enemy heavy areas but it is MUCH better than before. You can tell the team is listening to their fans and that is very rare nowadays. Keep up the optimizing process guys, you are doing great and this game is turning out very well!

I bought this back in Christmas 2018 and gave copies to friends, for the only reason the intro movie's narrator sounded... kinda well, I gotta be honest, he sounded kinda thick. Nobody talks like that, normally. So I was like, "I'm in!" I'm a creature of whimsy, I have weird ideas.

And having bought copies for friends and myself, I never touched it for years. Literally years. It's 2024, it's been over five years since I bought it. I finally gave it a go.

But there's one thing you need to know: This game's been dead since late 2020. The devs have moved on, this isn't early access, it's dead access. Full stop. If I sell you on this game, get it on sale. I mean, it's not that good anyway, it's a beer-and-pizza game, it'll fill you and amuse a few friends for some hours, but it's not going to change the world of gaming. It's what the kids these days would call "mid". The developers effed off for crypto nonsense and metaverse-I-don't-know-what according to the Steam forums, so... don't hold your breath for a return after three-and-half years absence.


So! The game closest to it that I've played is Dungeons of Sundaria. If you like what this game does, you have to get DoS. It's being updated, you've got meaningful character classes and specialties. But comparisons to it aren't useful to most folk, since it's also an indie-AF game. So how about this: "first-person Diabloid."

You, and optionally a few friends, are going to sack procedurally-generated dungeons. You'll dodge fireballs in realtime, whap monsters, gain XP, find better gear, and get level ups. I mean, that's basically ever ARPG since Diablo 1. The difference here is it's all in first person.

Making it FPS is another matter, though. The maps are orthagonally developed (so everthing is always at right angles) and made out of a handful of elements so there's an instant sameyness about it. Getting disoriented can happen quickly, even with a good sense of navigation. Navigating is done largely by seeing which doors and chests are already opened, what loot you left on the floor (there's no selling), what rooms are emptied of monsters. In a pinch, you can get consumable "compass" items that point you in the right direction. You'll get those as long as you remember to pop open enough cabinets and smack enough tombstones/casks/clumps of pottery/other random furniture objects.

Item durability has been some kind of busywork thing in most games, and it's exceptionally so here. You'll find widgets you can use to fix your stuff as you go along. It hasn't been an issue as low-level item churn has replaced items faster than they broke. Maybe that'll change later. Eh, who knows?

The game's bumpf brags about how you can "play it your way!" but seriously, no. There's your magic slingin', arrow-huckin', and face-bashing types of weapons and armour, and there's one stat that improves each. Weapons have minimum stat requirements, and if you're looking to max your damage you'll want to focus. The melee class has heavier armour but no range options, but the armour isn't that much heavier, so staying in your lane isn't debilitating. Since every attack consumes the same (quickly recharging) "willpower" meter, there little point to multi-classing.

The AI is pretty middling, honestly. Many monsters have difficulties navigating through doors, and some of them won't react if you throw splash damage barrages through the door and constantly wing them. Success with this mage I'm playing revolves around cheese: luring enemies through doors so they bunch up and I can AoE them, sticking close to walls so homing missiles might hit the wall instead of me, and just patiently hitting stuff from afar. The vast majority of enemies are melee, so they uselessly charge into my fire and die.

I've been through two dungeon zones, so far, complete with their "challenges", which are limited-area fights where monsters appear close by. The difficulty of all of this is based entirely on luck in the form of kit you find. By the end of the second dungeon, things were taking twenty hits in extreme cases and could take 50% of my HP off in a lucky hit. Then a lucky loot drop was letting me shrug off multiple blows and one-shot most everything.

I'll play it through later with my wife, who likes to bash things, and we'll see how it goes. I expect, based on my progress in the game, that there's about 15 hours of content maybe, maybe 20 if you really dawdle and scrub every dungeon clean. It'll be a mild palate cleanser.

If you've got a few buddies and you're waiting for a big coop game to appear, this will tide you over in the interim. It's not great, but it doesn't have to be if you can get a copy for a tenner.

Brazilian RPG/FPS game inspired on Hexen and Heretic.
A Teacher started study ocultism,when go to other world.

Played before i bought at Brasil Game Show,The game is very fun for playing with your friends or play alone.
This game is better than a lot of games and still in beta,also it's very challenging.
I recommend to buy it.

Good game, but what REALLY IMPRESSES ME is looking at the update schedule. You can clearly see how this game is continually upgraded all the time. If its good now, its only going to get better. But right now---totally worth it.

Way too early for early access. Three stats, one for each fighting style. That's about it. A really bad durability system. And 1 identify orb for every 30 unidentified items you find... pass.

This game is in great shape already, much better than average EA titles on Steam. Multiplayer still need some work on the animations sync, but it is fully playable. To be able to use the same character for single / multi full campaign is great! Can't wait for the upcoming levels.
