Rogumon

Played around an hour so far on the steam deck, some odd UI glitches requiring a restart of the game. Other them those this is a must play of you've played slay the spire or similar rogue-likes. Highly Recommend

As someone who grew up playing Pokemon, this game is great. Easy to learn and fun. Would recommend!

Very reminiscent of slay he spire and other deck/teambuilding rougelikes. There's a pretty wide range of workable strategies which is really cool to see!

Rogumon is a turn-based combat roguelite with gameplay echoing Pokemon (in mechanics) and Shin Megami Tensei (in story and characters). It's easy to learn, so you don't have to spend time watching YouTube videos to know how to play it before you jump in, and it's simple rhythm allows you to play at any time, for any amount of time. It's also got enough combat mechanics for the more strategically-minded. The soundtrack is both fantastical and relaxing, and the capturable creature designs are reminiscent of Monster Galaxy.

Rogumon is a delight to play, even as someone who doesn’t really play roguelikes. The instructions were clear enough for me to jump in and enjoy right away, and it was thrilling to make progress in the game. The world is really interesting with moody backgrounds and distinct character designs. My favorites were my cute Spinthri (little cactus guy) and my very cool Ellius (water dragon). The game is tough (all Roguelikes are tough for me lol), but Rogumon is VERY FAIR. I remember having some issues with blights so when I came across the item Multiblight (which would make me immune to several of the blights I was having trouble with) I was so happy! There are different systems going on which makes each round exciting and fresh. Can’t wait to continue and see what other creatures I can collect!

Been following this game since the demo. Cute art, and a good mix of challenge and payoff once you figure out strong teams. Pretty hard without meta progression, but meta progression is pretty fast to max out and not grindy.
