It's such an interesting, novel idea to run your own shop after you explore the dungeon. The gameplay loop is so well-designed and addictive. I'm always saying "just one more run through this dungeon and then bed".… Expand

   Gameplaywise,
   -- The game rogue-like dungeons feel like a fair challenge. You are always learning something, even in deaths. The bosses can be hard to beat, but eventually, you'll breeze past them once you figure out their moves.
   -- The antique store simulator is an interest excuse to read a bit of the lore, figure out what items should be stored away for weapon upgrades (there are a lot a those here) and which are just junk you'll sell for money.
   
   Over my gameplay, i only felt frustrated a couple of times when the game wouldn't register my commands and i'd die stupidly on the last floor of the dungeon. And the pace of the game might feel a bit too slow due to the grinding you are encouraged to do in order to get some decent gear.
   
   I would normally do several 2 to 3 hours sessions each time, and that worked perfectly as I was drawn to play a couple of runs every day after work. Simple mechanics, simple game, great time killer.
   
   Story - there is pretty much no story here. Enter the dungeon, kill the creatures and don't care about the unimportant characters. You should be good to go!
   
   Nice game overall,a decent 8/10.… Expand

   Really great, interesting and laid back game. Was fun to play. Not too short for me as I do not play often and in short sessions.

   Good enough. But...
   Selling items is not so important part when the late part of the game, since every items are high price enough.

   I really enjoyed playing this game but I think that there are some adjustments that can be made that can take it to the next level.
   
   UselessI really enjoyed playing this game but I think that there are some adjustments that can be made that can take it to the next level.
   
   Useless upgrades such as offering higher discounts in sale boxes. Why would I want to sell at a higher discount when everything from the sale box gets sold anyways?
   Instead of upgrading chest space, personally I never even filled a whole chest, it would be more helpful to upgrade your backpack.
   If you’re shooting enemies at the top of the screen you can’t see their health bar.
   Would be helpful to buy a magnet to attract loot from enemies instead of having it fall into the abyss or stay floating over lava.
   Retailer should sell potion and enchantment ingredients.
   Things aren’t explained well enough with the diagrams eg. taking requests and seeing them on your calendar
   Last boss can be won easily if you just stay in one spot. Before I found this out I tried fighting it multiple times, and only on the first attempt did the boss do a different string of attacks, on the other tries he just walked around.
   Desert boss fight is super laggy!!!
   Identical items in the backpack don’t always automatically stack.
   There's a problem with the rings. Sometimes my full health will go down, then when I unequip and reequip my rings my health goes back to normal.
   When forging a new weapon, the stats will show something like 200 with an up arrow. This doesn’t show by how much your attack will increase but just the total attack of the weapon. It would be helpful to have this number just show whether it's improving your current equipped weapon or whether its worse by showing the difference between your current attack power and the new weapon attack power.… Expand

   Don't buy this game untile they fix the usability issues. Impossible to use the pendant in the dungeon. I die over and over with max inventoryDon't buy this game untile they fix the usability issues. Impossible to use the pendant in the dungeon. I die over and over with max inventory without being able to get out. Game doesn't tell you ANYTHING. Worst UI experience in a game ever. Trash it and don't look back.… Expand
