The game itself? Well, it's normally not the sort of game I'd rush out
to get. I mean, for one thing the soundtrack is absolutely obnoxious,
and I usually don't fall for retro-themed games, and rogue-likes don't >particularly excite me either. Still, I added this one to the library
simply because the visual aesthetics reminded me a lot of the classic >"Ultima" games. I'm a sucker for those.
Another freebie!

So, this game is free because it's currently in early access. But the
devs report that it's soon coming out of EA, and once it does, they'll
start charging for it. So get it now if you don't want to pay.

Plus the 'Korean folklore' angle is intriguing. I've killed enough
orcs and dragons that I'm open to slaying new monsters. I mean, I'm
not sure I'm actually going to PLAY this game... but maybe I will.
Certainly there's more likelihood of my playing the game if its free
than if I had to pay for it.
But gog, that music is awful. I can understand if you skip this game
on the account of that alone.
