Refunded.

While the core idea and depth tickle my senses, playing it was sadly a turnoff overall. It is very difficult playing solo, and the melee situation is just plain inacceptable for a game in 2024, no matter the low price.

Apart from not knowing if a tree is blocking your way or not (you will eventually learn it I guess, because the maps never change), the hitboxes really blow and the attack area is a joke, like some other guy pointed out here. Objective (Map 1) is to go "south" or down, but your weapon doesn't hit in that direction. So you have to rely on either evasive maneuvers like Captain Kirk or on finding other weapons that might hit in that direction.

But even with a mage and his dragon stick, it felt like a clunky mess. You get spammed with tutorial tipps, which is of course nice. But they are random, not situational.
For real: when I'm trying to survive solo and am struggling with one of the annoying mechanics, the turned off lights, I'm not interested in learning about auras that are a thing in multiplayer!

Overall I do recommend to try out the game. If you found it, it might be something for you. But keep an eye on the refund timer. There are cheaper and technically much better games out there. The difficulty seems to be balanced for multiplayers.
