It looks nice, and $5 is definitely not a bad price for a game but.. Is it enough to be worth paying for?

Does it have any interesting or depthy mechanics? From the very little I saw of it, I would guess it's a mostly standard, if not less-than, roguelike with polish.

I'm not saying it should be free, just.. A lot of similar games seem to bring more to the table are also free, so it's hard to want to pay for this. It's just kind of lacking a "hook", I guess?

Well, we have WITP that still costs 70 bucks, not to mention the old-as-balls Dominions 3 for 55 (less in some shops)..

Although i guess these two DO add something that other games do not.

what does WITP mean? Should I know this?

It seems that the wave of freebie seekers just overloaded the servers, can't seem to get into the "store" to claim my copy.

They're still down, if anybody is wondering.

Hey brah, dominions 3 is pretty fun, altough I have to agree that $55 is pretty bogus for a game thats so old. If only bay12 were up for another community game :C

But yea, this roguelike looks pretty ok, but its pretty standard and basic roguelike stuff. I'm with most people in this topic saying that its a good game, but there are free games out there that offer more then it does in the same genre.

yup, not promoting this as a game to buy, just one to take advantage of the free offer(if the servers come back). I imagine they will have to extend it for those who couldn't take advantage due to server issues.
