Looks interesting but fuck ADs who are still using blocky/pixel art-style with couch potato 80s tropes, get some fucking culture.

Turn based combat at 13:00.

Looks not greatly designed (you can't see a list of your skills but rather have to scroll through) and it's slow as all hell.

Reminds me of YIIK so yeah, I'll pass.
