I was expecting a little more even if it is minimalist -- I never took any damage and finished without much effort. Are all the levels like today's? I think my main complaint is I don't really see how it's Rogue-like in any capacity except a similar text-based format Unicode-shifted up to the emoji section. I assume it's making that comparison because the daily one-try limitation is a bit like permadeath, but that isn't really enough on its own. Cool idea, I hope it keeps improving, thanks for sharing!

The point of these games is that you do one a day and share your results with others to show how good you are.

I think it started with Wordle, but I'm not sure. There will be more genres of games popping up as "genre"-le until this fad dies out.

Oooooooh I totally missed the Wordle clone aspect, that makes way more sense now, thanks. Hope you enjoy your cake day!

I've been doing this game for a few months now. Today was a pretty easy day. There have been a few where there were double vampires or a dragon guarding the last room in such a way that you can't kite them around that I couldn't figure out how to beat. However I think like most of these daily games, it is built for you to usually succeed
