Play as a mage facing successive waves of enemies in a 2D shoot-'em-up. Aim attacks while moving to avoid incoming threats and stay alive as each round grows more demanding.
After waves, choose from offered upgrades that strengthen or alter your attacks and defenses. Combine these choices to shape each run, with different staves and hats adding abilities and options.
Each run begins anew, while resources earned during play can unlock equipment for future attempts. Survival and wave records feed into leaderboards with world, national, and local rankings.
In the supplied reviews, players often enjoy the simple, quick-to-learn runs and the chance to combine upgrades into powerful builds. Some also like the escalating wave challenge and the game’s pick-up-and-play feel. Criticisms recur around slow early progression, limited variety or replay appeal, and bugs; some reviewers also feel that effective builds become too narrow.
