Terry Cavanagh does it again.

On the vein of VVVVVV and Super Hexagon; this game is brilliant on almost every aspect while being charming, a warmth you don't find often and he captures here just like in VVVVVV.

The progression, better than most Roguelikes, manages to not frustrate by sepparating what other designers would make a single tiring run for each character a series of rather small segments you can practice or even skip if you only aim to complete the main story, it never tries to pressure you, what a game by turns does best.

And the combat, what a genius and effective system, so many variations with just the right amount of depth, if you thought card games already did it all and you haven't tried Dicey Dungeons, you'll be shocked.
