Superb and Addicting
This game quickly became one of my faves. Hits all the right retro vibes with a familiar format with lots of modern mechanics. Looking forward to Chapter 2!
How a game should feel
The best parts of RPGs with the tedium simplified
Awesome pixel art
A retro nod back to the arcade days of my childhood in the 80s
Total feeling of immersion which most games are missing
I love it!!
Fun and addictive
My favorite game on my iPad in a long time - the only thing is I think the brother is impossible and I admit I’m getting a little tired of trying to make it there and then just get annihilated. I don’t know if it’s because of a skill issue (me!) or what… anyways I love playing, I just hope I can progress finally one day. Super awesome game though!
Lots of fun- part 2 coming?
I definitely had fun with this. The memory mechanic kept it challenging and I liked all of the secrets to unlock. Will there be a part 2?
Most interested I’ve been in a game!
I don’t often find games, let alone mobile games, that get me legitimately interested in the lore, development, and make me want to 100% it. But here we are! So far this has been a sick game and it deserves more popularity
Card-matching based RPG
This game is an RPG - the kind where you equip items to yourself and such, and battle enemies in turn-based encounters. However, it's not 2D or 3D world traversal like a pokémon or zelda game, nor is it strictly text-based traversal like old retro RPG games from the late 70's and early 80's. You traverse by flipping and matching cards or tiles. Some of the cards have actions that may trigger a text-based interaction with an NPC character, other pairs might trigger a text-based battle, others wil
Unique and immersive
Addictive, too. I can’t stop playing it. Don’t let the apparent simplicity of the matching mechanics fool you. There’s a fair amount of strategy across the entire “map”. The story is richly imagined and well-written. It deserves more players!
Awesome Game!
Reminds me of a lot of other role playing rogue likes I’ve enjoyed playing but with its own unique story. Lots of secrets and replay ability in the first chapter. Looking very forward to seeing where this games goes and hope updates come soon :)
Almost there, has potential
A fun concept, runs well! Though the match mechanic needs to have a more engaging risk/reward factor (as someone said on TouchArcade). Maybe a limited flip option or other impacts that force the player to be more careful about what they select? Otherwise, if you have to uncover everything anyway, what is the purpose?
This game rules
Definitely worth the two dollars! Super fun card matching rpg. Super addictive!!
Great game!
Really enjoy it’s simple and easy to use design, and the roguelike aspects are my favorite to play through time and time again.

Another luck based game
There is absolutely no skill associated with this game. The mechanics are luck based which is incredibly frustrating to play.
Flawed, has moments
The memory mechanic is far too random and there aren’t enough resources… mostly you’ll randomly die from no energy while randomly clicking squares to find a match.
Add more food; add some sort of memory buff so you can reveal cards more quickly.
