Is like a Zaldis but roguelite.
If you like Zelda games like LTTP, LBW, OoS, OoA, all the top down zelda's you'll like this game, just every dungeon doesn't have a set layout.

This game appears to be dead and abandoned by the devs. DO NOT BUY IT.
Look, I actually REALLY like the game, but only when it works! For whatever reason, my new system, which I built about 5 months ago and will list the specs of below, usually works just fine for the first few hours during each system startup. However, after closing out of the game even a single time, or exceeding those initial few hours and having it crash by doing so, trying to relaunch it later will cause it to crash when it reaches the loading screen.
The only method I've found to allow it to sometimes load beyond that is to restart my system. I know for a fact that there's absolutely nothing wrong with my system, given the numerous system-intensive games I've played since building it, with most having single-session playtimes exceeding the longest session I've put into this game on the new system. There's also been a single time when repeatedly relaunching the game caused it to get through the loading and into the game, but that's one time in dozens of attempts. In some rare events, it may also pass the initial load and enter into the game, but exiting your home causes it to crash when loading the rest of the game's world.
You can find a large number of people with complaints about the game crashing upon startup as I've mentioned, but the only responses the devs/publishers have given, with the last posts I can find given by them having been back in 2022 and a single one in early 2023. Those posts are typically telling players to give a file of system information for the devs to review, but there were never any real conclusive fixes given. There's clearly a widespread problem with the game, but the devs/publishers don't care to address it, nor have they for years. I'm not sure if this is an issue specific to Windows 11, as my previous system had Windows 10 and my new one uses 11, or if there's some hardware compatibility issue at play.
I've played through this game, start to finish, a few times, but it was on my previous system. When the game runs, it's great, and I've had a lot of enjoyment with it, as is apparent with the hours listed on my playtime, but that's completely meaningless if it can't even launch. They're still selling the game, therefore they're obligated to fix it, lest they be regarded as selling damaged goods.
If the issues are ever fixed, this game will easily be one I suggest, but as it's currently broken, I can't do that. A balloon which holds no air is not a balloon, it's just a piece of garbage. If they simply fixed these issues, it'd be great, and it they even further added support for Linux and Linux-based devices, such as the Steam Deck, they could actually reach a huge market and gain a lot of success. I'm not sure what's going on with them, but they're missing an incredible opportunity.
For comparison, I'll list my previous system's specs before my new system's. Do note, however, that I play a wide range of games, including ones that utilize RT, so this game is actually one of a few that can practically run on a potato, whereas a large number of the rest require the high-end specs of my build for good framerates at the usual 2560x1440 resolution and maximum settings I run them at.

You know how when sometimes you’re too lazy to do it correctly and you take a photo if your computer screen instead of a screenshot? Thats how this game compares to zelda. Its like they watched someone else play it on YouTube and copied all of the mechanics. Feels more like a mobile game.
They track how many steps you take, and give you notifications as to your walking progress. Who is asking for stuff like this?

Game always crashes a few seconds into the loading screen. Researched online, found it to be a common problem. Tried all suggestions; reinstall, reboot, config files, etc. My system exceeds specs. Cannot resolve, bought game too long ago to refund. Disappointing because it looks like it could be a lot of fun, hopefully I can come back in the future with a fix.

My friend bought this for me so we could play together and while we only played together once, i've continued to play. I quite enjoy the game as it feels like the old school adventure puzzle games of the past. They are simple but can prove to be difficult at times. The game has plenty to offer by being able to upgrade your weapons and tools. added content with things you get as you play and the fact you can replay dungeons over and over again makes it worth at the very least one play through if not more.

If you're a fan of Zelda or any over the top adventure games this is for you! I've played most of my time online with friends, the online has worked really good for us and has been super fun! There is a ton of variety in this game, lots of different classes and upgrades. Plus, each dungeon has been a fun challenge. It is definitely more difficult than a standard Zelda style game which is a good thing. It makes you actually get better at the game in a fair way and when you finally beat a dungeon it is super satisfying. As of writing this review my friend and I have almost beat the second dungeon (17.2 hours in) so you will get your money worth. I can't recommend this enough for people that want a rogue style Zelda game with solo or co-op gameplay.
