   I've been searching for a couch coop dungeon crawler for some time and I have bought anything worth mentioning and the only thing that comesI've been searching for a couch coop dungeon crawler for some time and I have bought anything worth mentioning and the only thing that comes close to this title is hades. Hades is a piece of art in its own right but it is confined to single player only. This game feels much like Hades but it has two player mode and a versus mode. So it's kind of like Hades and smash Brothers mixed together… Expand

Every death is a learning experience , enforcing your choices of a staggering set of abilities and powerups while rewarding your success in a unique way that pushes you to improve and refine.

You could choose 4 spells from large pools to fight against hostile, the combination of relics and spells are kind of challenging and have serious fun. However, the game is quite easy after 15+ try and I basically finished the game with 50 hours (unlock all spells, relics & gems to 999).
   More challenging and long lasting for the game will be much better :)… Expand

The only problem I have is that they don't explain enough about the game like how shops and currency work or how enhancing spells work or the difference between a signature and normal arcana in the game for newcomers. The game also suffers a little bit on the Switch due to the fact it supports the Pro Controller in one player, but not in two player mode, and forces the player to use the split joycons and not even be allowed to switch them around.… Expand

   Nice graphics, beautiful animations, great spell design, fast paced fluid combat, amazing soundtrack and clicky gameplay make this title oneNice graphics, beautiful animations, great spell design, fast paced fluid combat, amazing soundtrack and clicky gameplay make this title one of the best roguelikes currently on the Nintendo Switch. The only thing missing is some kind of online functionality and maybe some QOL changes to the hub. Overall I’d rate this game just the same as other popular roguelikes like Enter the Gungeon or The Binding of Isaac (although the lore is not nearly as interesting).… Expand

   Frankly, it's astonishing this game has such high regard. I rarely take the time to review games, but it seems WoL fans need to desperatelyFrankly, it's astonishing this game has such high regard. I rarely take the time to review games, but it seems WoL fans need to desperately wake up.
   
   Cons: It's extremely challenging... (Okay let me finish--) It's not challenging in the way that it's something you'll eventually master and have FUN mastering, but rather it in the way that you'll take damage for literally no reason. The hit-box for the player seems completely arbitrary, and the rooms are often cramped with traps, pits, and more enemies than suit the capacity. Some of the bosses' attacks are so absolutely unavoidable that I can't even tell if the devs have played their own game. I've yet to stumble upon one noticeable synergy between relics, and most of the relics seem to fall flat in actually aiding the player. The only "balance" I can think of is how enemies can be pushed into pits, but that feels exploitative! If you have only close-range arcana, you WILL NOT escape being hit.
   
   The gameplay is horribly programmed, but what about the rest of the game? Well, I've beaten it twice so far, and can say I haven't felt the slightest bit rewarded. (spoiler) Really? You give me a relic that makes the game harder? As if it really needs that? (/spoiler) The devs handled the rewards in the worst way possible; when you beat a boss, you will receive a modicum of health, but a MILLION chaos gems, allowing you to unlock everything in the game almost instantly. I don't get any sense of accomplishment, none at all. Very rarely, the game will drop free relics or arcana, but half of the relic drops are cursed (which is great because cursed relics are almost always useless). Sometimes, the game will even be so gracious as to give you either a chest brimming with yet more chaos gems or a chest that requires arcana that you will 90% of the time NOT HAVE.
   
   Finally, if you couldn't have guessed from other reviews, there isn't much to this game. The arcana are bountiful and actually really FUN and CREATIVE (basically the only pros, btw), but the levels, rooms, and enemies are hugely limited, making this feel like more of a 5 dollar game from the app store. I truly hope they improve the game, but until then, no matter how much I play it, I'm never going to feel like I've got my 15 dollar's worth.… Expand
