Stoned Ape
Savant
Played a bit, it's slightly janky at the start. For example everyone holds their weapons pointing backwards in the inventory screen.
You can generate your character and hire 1 mercenary in the beginning. Additional mercs are recruited by rescuing them from islands.
You can plot a route to different islands to collect different rewards (including permanent level 2 stat boost spelll effects, extra XP, mercenary recruit, ect) these rewards are shown before you explore the islands.
All monsters so far are worth 1XP, and you get some extra for skill checks. Most XP is rewarded for clearing islands.
Cleared 2 islands so far, both trivial difficulty (first had 1 centipede/fly/spider per room, second had pairs of kobolds).
