The Real Review

People are really enjoying this medieval hack-and-slash roguelike, praising the tight combat, killer art style, and the solid co-op experience with your Scottish battalion. It's got a great gameplay loop that keeps you carving through hordes. The main issue is performance, which is a consistent gripe, especially on PC and Steam Deck where crashes and frame drops are common. Some also find the difficulty curve a bit punishing, but it's a fun time if your system can handle it.
