Wow.

No idea how I missed this but in the age of ChatGPT and LLM's, Eliza asked important and thought provoking questions of the player's own views of the technology, the collection of private intimate data of everyday people and how that can be used to help or hinder humans efforts for a better world rather than a thicker bottom line.

I played it start to finish on Steam Deck, took me 7 hours and would highly recommend.

if you're willing to look for it, there are a good 8 hours of fun to be had here.

You can play through the first dungeon and work out if the game is for you or not, you have seen the majority of the content at that point, and Into The Pit spends a good chunk of time pretending that by tweaking enemy health bars and cycling in different chunks of floor tiles over the same 10 maps, you'll somehow not notice that it's too stretched for its own good.

That being said, the combat and movement are both tight and snappy, you can clear a dungeon in about 25-35 minutes and it's a great way to 'switch off' after a long day.,
