Greets,

So after 2 hours of play so far today, my review is quite favorable. Here are a few take-aways that i have noticed, in particular to my mutliple deaths.

Progression - There are some runs that I go on where I don't get enough gold or any unlocks to have made that particular heir's life worthwhile to expanding on future heirs. This is somewhat similar in real-life and it gives me a chuckle at time. Frustrating, of course, but it's how things work sometimes. I have not run into some of the issues yet that other players have as far as upgrades costing way more than they can get in multiple runs, so my opinion on this may change. However, since I've been progressing, I can generally get further and further each time.

Game play - Challenging! Some rooms are just damn near impossible to clear without cat-like reflexes and a good portion of luck to ensure you don't take a hit or two. I find myself back-tracking quite often if I run into something I'm just not willing to sacrifice the HP for to look for another route. The controls work nicely, and i've noticed no issues there (using a gamepad). The "traits" that each heir can also have add a different playstyle/take on almost every run. Adds to the challenge, and the entertainment value.

Graphics/Sound - Graphics are a typical 2D retro feel that are quite common with a great deal of the independent games hitting the market lately. Sound is also quiet on par with what you would assume from this type of game. One thing in particular that I am quite happy with is the icons that track the off-screen attacks coming your way. Nothing used to suck worse than jumping to a platform only to get hit in the face with something that was rocketing at you from off-screen.

Overall, I'm thoroughly enjoying this game and intend to sink many more hours into it.
