Noah's Dilemma

You're able to get so many synergistic items and dudes making you feel overpowered, and yet it's still that perfect level of difficulty where every encounter is still tense and fun as hell.

the Noah's Ark roguelike nobody asked for but needed

This is a super well-balanced roguelike game, if you're into this kind of thing, you really shouldn't miss it. I was lucky to get into the playtest and thought I’d just check it out before getting back to work... but ended up playing it all night over the holidays without even noticing. Come play it!

+ unique art style + fun and well designed gameplay loop + comfy ui and music + god tier hentai crab - slightly unsatisfying replayablity at its current state, still worth the price tho (would love to see more bosses) recommended for those who enjoy strategy/roguelike games and wanna try something fresh over the weekend

It's really not at all what I thought it would be. As another person's review mentioned, it's much much much less of a puzzle game and more of a resource management simulator. That wouldn't be too bad, but the bosses at the end of each zone are pretty infuriating to deal with (the serpent king was the last straw for me). It's cheap so I'm not too bothered by it, but there's nothing clever about every boss getting multiple free hits on your guys in combat, it just highlights the weak game design.

The combat can be brutal at times, but the gorgeous art style more than makes up for it
