Description
About This Game
Your character, Jess, is an imp. Because of this, Jess has no friends. No one respects imps. But Jess has heard of an artefact that commands the respect of all beings. Doesn't that mean all beings could be Jess's friends?
To get the artefact, Jess will simply need to delve deep into the ruins of a temple set in the guts of a volcano. There Jess may find some less-than-friendly creatures, but also some helpful items, potent relics, and of course the local merchant.
Besides generated levels, the game features a randomized skilltree that makes every run truly unique without over-complexification. After you beat the regular game, you will unlock the ladder where every win will unlock the next handicap to put your strategy skills to the test. You may also unlock gambit mode, where you may stack as many of randomly-proposed handicaps as you want to make up a challenge of your own design.
A run may last from 10 to 40 minutes. Plays with a keyboard.
