If you love exploring weird maps and always try to climb out of bounds, like I do, this is for you!

(not sure why this game has many bad reviews, later levels increase in difficulty with some parts beeing more precision platformer than actual climbing but overall still fun)

Early Access Review
TL;DR:
It was fun when it first released on Steam—frequent updates, fun content, great pace. But over time, it became bloated with FOMO (fear of missing out) and, admittedly, my own sunken cost fallacy. As a new player, the game is probably enjoyable for quite some time, but be warned: the dev is constantly trying to hook you and push you toward spending way too much money.


Two things gradually drained my enjoyment: first, the creeping greed; second, the mobile-style pressure to log in daily and grind through tasks.

Unplayable as a free player due to mob drops eventually causing the game to turn into a slideshow, since autolooting—which is absolutely necessary for meaningful progress—is locked behind a $5 paywall. Granted, it’s the cheapest pack available, but honestly, it should just be part of the base game.

Even though I dislike pay-to-win mechanics, I did end up buying a few paid packs. I figured, “I’ve been enjoying the game for thousands of hours—might as well spend a bit to enhance the experience.” That was fine until I realized the dev kept sneaking in more and more predatory mechanics. Now, every big update includes a paid pack with major bonuses you don’t want to miss. If you skip it, your progression slows to a crawl. So: buy now, or miss out forever. Who doesn’t love time-limited pay-to-win mechanics?

There’s also a “premium” in-game shop with a time-limited section. You can farm the premium currency for free, but the daily cap and slow grind make it nearly impossible for newer players to keep up with the years of premium content that’s been added. Every new mechanic gets some kind of time skip or pay-to-win item to boost it—meaning if you don’t spend, you miss both the paid pack boost and whatever’s in the premium shop.


Moving from the pay-to-win FOMO onto the gameplay FOMO!

I play a lot of idle/clicker/incremental games, and I usually enjoy a balance between offline idle progress and real decision-making during active play. Unfortunately, this game doesn’t offer that anymore—at least not in the late-game stage I’m at. I can’t just play when I feel like it or pause for a month, because there are so many—way too many—daily tasks. I keep forgetting half of them, and I refuse to look up or make a to-do list just to keep up. The dev clearly knows how mobile games hook players by turning play into habit.

There’s daily login, daily shop, daily bosses, daily consumables from NPCs, daily guild points, daily this mechanic, daily that mechanic… You’d think that means there’s always something to do, right? Not really. It all becomes a checklist of chores—stuff you have to slog through, even if you’re not enjoying it. Skip anything and you fall behind. It doesn’t pile up. You can’t take a break for a week and catch up later.

All of those daily bonuses are gone. You missed out on them. That means you have three options:

1. Work through the chores like the addict you are—might as well buy some paid packs while you're at it.

2. Try to ignore everything you're missing out on, though that'll only get tougher the deeper you spiral.

3. Combine it with your distaste for greed, and maybe—just maybe—you’ll finally quit the game you enjoyed for years but came to resent.


Edit: Yes, I used AI to check my grammar, which added a lot of "—". But I'm too lazy to remove those, so whatever lol
