Credit where it's due: Doler certainly nails the tonal atmosphere of being a mouse in a giant spooky maze.

Unfortunately, that's it's only strength. The enemies are too plentiful to maintain their eerie nature for very long, and too dumb to really be seen as threats - by fifteen minutes in, I saw them as little more than wandering hurtboxes, which would occasionally wander in my direction faster than I could move away. The message system clearly takes inspiration from Dark Souls, but that game had a larger population and didn't reset the environment every 24 hours, so the maze here is pretty devoid of clues.

Even if it weren't, the key problem is that there's no real positive feedback that you're moving in the right direction, as least none that I could find. If you do find the jackpot, you'll have to retrace your steps across the entire maze to leave a coherent trail - one that will be gone in less than 24 hours. It doesn't seem like other players are interested in doing that, and I don't blame them.

Not recommended.
