Automon

This is surprisingly fun. It's the perfectly balance of autobattlers to me where the fights resolve fast and you're not given too many choices between fights making the loot and fight cycle really fast and satisgying to me. The stats are simple enough but allow for a lot of strategy in your team building and synergies. This is really fun to learn until you can consistently reach the end of a run.

This game is better than it has any right to be!

Neat little auto battler.

I'd play more games like this. It's clearly mocking it's inspiration, but in a fun way. I would enjoy just a straight up game like this without the humor. Recommended, especially for the price!

It's a good premise, it's just sorely lacking in content. If you get the collector with level-up ATK buffs and a sniper, then you can steamroll everything for hundreds of rounds. It's not a true roguelite; this is a roguelike where there's no carry-over unlocks or upgrade trees besides different characters and knowing which automons are in each area. To improve this I think you'd need to do an overhaul on the base mechanics along with a huge expansion. After clearing the first champion, there is basically nothing more to the game besides seeing how far you can get. Well, I'm not opposed to infinite rounds in games like these, but there needs to be something more to keep it exciting. And since a permanent increases to stats is clearly way more useful than anything else, there needs to be some kind of balance for that - be it making other strong avenues of upgrading, or nerfing these abilities. Most consumables also seem to just dilute rewards and will never get action. Besides healing, I couldn't really find a use for them. It might be worth making them more interesting, or nerfing the healing options. Alternative areas, and like 20x the content would probably elevate this game.…

Worth the $2.78 I paid for it.
