Everyone on Earth needs to play this game _at least_ until you get to where you can open the world map.

Got through all the content in like 20m, but for just a couple bucks it was pretty fun!

That said, I _kept expecting_ this thing to turn into a horror game out of nowhere. The moody lighting left me feeling uneasy, but like... in a way that was kinda rad. In the exploration chapter, I was constantly looking for secrets or easter eggs that would trigger some sort of horror mode.

Solid $2 game

While I did complete all of the content in the game in about 4 hours, it was well worth the $25.
(I did miss a couple collectibles , but I found most of them and got 30/46 achievements, I'd call that pretty dang completed in my book)

Fun puzzles that were interesting, none too hard -- just a couple of stumpers. Beautiful and satisfying game, would definitely recommend!

For fans of Tunic, Undertale, and/or Outer Wilds. This game was freaking sick, an amazing 5-10h adventure with great mechanics and characters. 9/10, loved this one and as far as games go this one'll stick with me.

Very fun genre mix! Roguelite cards / tower defense turns out to be a great strategy and building the map is the perfect twist!

Great little emulation tool for a nifty sprite-focused language. The language is extremely well documented in-game and the documentation is easy to access while tinkering. All this with fun and accessible challenges to get started and really flex your skills as you tinker! And with fantastic music to boot!

Definitely for people who have fun programming and enjoy classic hardware.

For fans who enjoy secret hunting, top-down Zelda games, and Souls-like games.

It's tremendously easy to spoil yourself for this game. If you identify with the first sentence of this review, you will enjoy the game if you really give it a chance.

9/10

This is a good game. However, at the time of making this review it doesn't have enough content to justify a $20 price tag.

It will eventually be a great game, and well worth the money at $20. I have no doubt about that, but it might be years until that time comes.

Buy it if it goes on sale, or if you _really_ love both Peggle and Slay the Spire.

A hesitant recommendation

DD has served me well, I picked it up shortly after release and all-in-all it has worked pretty well, with some caveats. My workflow is building my stories on a pretty powerful gaming PC, then exporting bundles to use on my MacBook Pro I use hooked up to a 4K tabletop TV for in-person games.

I have a laundry list of bugs, ranging from inconvenient (Mac OS fog of war tool is square even if you select circle) to infuriating (Mac OS sometimes requires a COMPLETE RESTART for this program to not crash when loading any story, often delaying the beginning of my games).

During my sessions, it slows my 2019 i7 MacBook Pro to a sputter. If the background I’m using isn’t animated I’ll often use Terminal to suspend the process allowing me to still use my laptop to manage combat or look up rules in a reasonable amount of time.

Given that there hasn’t been any noticeable changes since launch for me, I have little hope that this program will get the love it deserves.

With that said, what *does* work is great. The way the storyboards work is very intuitive, mapping out all the potential battles in 2D space feels like an extension of my own mind’s understanding of our world.

Because of the lack of significant updates, I believe this tool will be surpassed for in-person digital battlemats by something else one day. But as far as I can tell, that day hasn’t come along yet and this is the best existing tool for the job.

Great game at launch, with even more to come.

Just play it, if you even remotely like card games and horror OR mystery, play this game.
