Title
Challenging but Rewarding!
Brutally hard. If you beat this game legitimately then you are an epic gamer indeed. I'm ashamed to admit I cheated to get some extra lives.

There is plenty of visual tearing, janky controls, cheap traps to kill you, and hard bosses. I don't think this is one to necessarily come back to time and time again but you'll be proud of yourself if you get through this game's guantlet of cheapness it throws at you. Overall, fun game to challenge yourself with and I'd recommend it.

    I beat this game months ago but I keep thinking about it. The difficulty is just absurd with plenty of cheap kills. It also actively punishes you for doing bad by losing your weapon and scrolls. I will say though, beating it is extremely rewarding. I haven't felt that way beating a game in a long time.
