Harry from Disco Elysium gets too blitzed one night and ends up in the torture dungeons of El Dorado - and YOU'VE gotta help him!!!
As an avid roguelike fan, this one is pretty good. Combat feels meaty and mechanically solid. While striking and visually appealing, the style feels a little derivative of Hades. Otherwise, while it plays fantastically, it doesn't leave that much of an impression on me and lacks its own identity.
a really interesting take on the rougelike genre, the style does feel like its own thing, but i got bored around the second map, and the lack of lore surrounding the dead gods (apart from the splash art and items you pick up) kinda makes this not worth it to me. still, give this a shot if ure interested!

Roguelike simple, pero divertido. Buena estética y gameplay.

Copy-pasting the definition of "roguelike" [or "roguelite" for anyone who's invested in the distinction] wasn't what I was going to do for a review, even though it was the impression the game gave out before trying it, and it's mostly the prevailing thought after. It feels alright to play, but I couldn't help but think the entire time--as I was reminded of Binding of Isaac or Rogue Legacy or whatever--that I'd rather be playing the obvious influences or discovering new aesthetics or ideas in the space.

Not the most creative, but still good fun. Decent variety in items, nice pixel-art and combat feels great. Could benefit from a less generic setting and enemy design. Permanent progression is present but it's not too agrigious, unlike others in the genre, like Rogue Legacy.
