There's something wrong with the game that makes it feel.. meh. I don't know what.
Decent classic roguelike. Absolutely incredible soundtrack; check it out for the music, at the very least.
Just could not get into this. I try a lot of Roguelites (or whatever this is defined as) and seem to love 50% and bounce off 50%, sadly this was the latter. Struggled to read some of the stuff on the Switch as well.
One of the best roguelikes you can get on the Steam Deck. Super relaxing, feels good on controller, and has an excellent job system that really snowballs into something special as you play the game.
My completed run (Hardcore mode) took about 8 hours with a Soulkeeper/Floramancer (with a touch of budoka to increase my damage). Crazy summoner archer build that when played right let me have 5-6 summons on screen absolutely shredding shit. The final boss was tough, but I managed it blind just barely.
So many ideas for replayability and challenge runs (Solo, no class changing, etc) as well as Ronin mode makes this a game you could easily sink 100 hours into.. For only about 10 bucks on sale!
My only gripe with the game is I feel Heroic mode (The Roguelite mode) is a bit too focused on preparing for the next run vs enjoying your current. That's why I decided to play the game on Hardcore instead. I could also see the appeal of playing the game on Adventure and enjoying it more as a Pokemon Mystery Dungeon-esque adventure, there's plenty of content here to sink your teeth into even playing withoiut permadeath.
Highly recommend this one if you enjoy grid-based RPGs of any time, especially roguelikes and class-system enjoyers.
