Death-initely worth it

Review Battle Chasers: Nightwar (PS4)
Up all night to get lucky
Battle Chasers: Nightwar is a turn based role-playing game with an emphasis on traversing randomised dungeons. However, it's not an endless loot-'em-up dungeon crawler – it has a story, a cool cast of characters, and an interesting game world to explore.

Has it been too long or short since its original release? With this in...
