As other reviews state - there is no tactics involved in this game, and really, turn-based combat seems like it was slapped upon a game where it does not belong and doesn't work right, like fitting a square into a round hole - possible, if being blunt enough.
Also, as a matter of preference, I don't really like the general "feel" of the game in art and sound direction, but that's minor compared to the gameplay loop

big fan of survivor games, very much my style currently. But this game I wouldn't recommend to anyone sadly.
even though im a fan of the idea of the game, this is the worst one I've played so far (played vampire survivors, soulstone survivors & nomad survival).

Don't get tricked: The steam store page says its a roguelite, but it is a rogue-like, so no meta-progression of which I'm fond of so every run feels worthwhile.
Also, there's no encyclopedia for all relics/anything that you've unlocked.
And no stats or anything to keep track of besides "losses" & "wins".
I'll play it for some more time to get a few more achievements, and that'll be it. not good.
