Jan. 2025
One of the best rougelikes I've ever played and despite the really simple concept of you can only travel to the right, has incredible replay value The gameplay reminds me of the pokemon mystery dungeon games but better, this is hands down one of the most memorable rougelikes full of so much charm and fun Its extremely upsetting we didnt get more games like it or sequels. (Mystery chronicles one way heroics is NOT a true sequel and runs terribly compared to this game, avoid it no matter how much you desire more of this game)

10 years later, this still stands proudly with the Roguelite greats. Simple and well executed concept, surprisingly in-depth systems, cool subtle online features, addicting replayability, many different endings, lots of classes, unlockables, etc. Runs can be as short or as long as you want, depending on the difficulty and ending that you're going for or if you're doing one of the many character side-quests. In the end it also tells a decent little story. It's fantastic, get this along with its DLC, which elevates this solid game to a 10/10

The game takes such an interesting idea and runs with it. It's a unique experience and for a game that came out in 2014 it's one that is still very much worth playing. The price is down right crazy for the quality of the product being sold.

Very fun game and addictive when you get the hang of it. It can be somewhat repetitive when you have been playing a while but I don't consider that a bad thing. When you want to chill out and drop some hours in to a fun game, discover some new worlds and armor, etc, this is a great fun game.
