A roguelike action game that can be played with up to 4 players? Sounds pretty fun to me!

There's not much content to the Early Access, because... well it's Early Access. My initial impressions are that the gameplay is quite fun, but it needs a bit of tuning. However, the content amount feels a bit scarce, so I don't think you need to get the game immediately unless you like this genre of roguelike.

I do like that the Classes are based on folk tales and legends, so we don't fully get just a generic Warrior, Mage, etc. They have a little bit more thematics to them. Combat is fairly good, it didn't feel needlessly punishing and the difficulty (at least for Normal mode) felt correct. The game pace feels a bit chaotic as you have 20 minutes to explore and upgrade before the fight. The collect hay mission seemed impossible initially, but there's actually a bundle of 6 hay at each marked location, so it's actually doable.

I found it a bit strange that the default bind for the keyboard mode uses the Up arrow, but all of the other skills are focused around the WASD keys. The Pied Pipers upgrades didn't feel very impactful like the first Epic one I got seemed really good, but I didn't notice a huge difference in my damage. Maybe because of RNG, but I got mostly traits related to being in close range and very few longer-range upgrades.
