ETG is one of the best rougelike games I've played in a long time. Rather than just rewarding good rng like most in it's genre, ETG makes it so even the worst luck runs can be won with skill thanks to its SHMUP like enemies and bosses. The amount of content in this game is insane and puts others to shame even going so far to include secrets that you might only find once every 100 hours.

The name of the game is guns and there are about 200+ of them to pick up during a run-through. While you have the standard AK, Shotgun & Pistols which are great in their own right, the game has a ton of wacky weaponry that are not only fun to use, but also have a use so you don't just forget about them minutes later.

There are a couple of gripes, the look of the gungeon's floors do feel repeated at times and can get quite boring by the 20th hour. There are some technical problems with the game such as controllers not responding after entering a new floor or the game crashing but most of the original launch issues have been fixed and they're still committed to fixing bad bugs in the final upcoming update. The last problem I have is that the pacing of the first floor could be way better, getting stuck with the beginner pistol at the end of the first floor is a pain as it's not as challenging as it is really slow to clear rooms until you get another weapon.

Overall, the game is really fun and polished and if you like rougelikes I highly recommend you check Enter The Gungeon out.
