Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“Do NOT buy anything from NeoCore games. They've shown to be a shady dev that will revoke legitimately purchased keys out of spite and then lying about why they did so. They claim it's for "privacy issues" yet didn't bother to revoke keys…”
“Great / fun game starting out but the mid levels scale to extremely difficult to near impossible very quickly with too many restrictions, limited traps and resources. After spending many hours leveling up with different character classes…”
