First purchase I've kind of regretted on Playdate. I really wanted to like it. A deep dungeon-crawling RPG on Playdate sounds great but this one just feels like it has no real depth and makes you waste a lot of time walking back to the same area over and over because there's no real strategy to any of the combat, at least early on. You just mash the attack button until eventually a fight kills you, you receive no punishment for dying, and you walk back to whatever killed you slowly and start mashing attack again. Rinse and repeat. Also has a really bad onboarding for a new player, just dropping you directly into a random shop with no instructions and making you fumble through menus until you find the actual game. Didn't care for it.
