✦ AI summary

Players appreciate this roguelike's accessibility and low price point, particularly on sale, praising its mouse-only controls and engaging gameplay loop of searching, fighting, and building.

This is a light recommendation, not a strong recommendation, but yes, at its current price, I would recommend this game with the following caveats: 1) That you don't mind being thrown into the game with very little explanations of some of the core mechanics (but they're generally simple enough to figure out on your own) 2) That you don't mind DOS-ish pixel graphics, and 3) That you don't mind basic searching, fighting, fetching, and building, because that's what this game is. While on the one hand, I did enjoy playing this game, I was frustrated with it at points because objectives can be a bit vague and sometimes you don't realize you purchased and/or built something until you've already done it.

It's not topping any of my lists, but I also have played games much, much worse than this one. So I recommend it, but also warn you to not expect too much. If purchased on sa…

I only have 22 minutes in, but its enough to get a good first impression of it. So far, its an enjoyable Roguelike thats well worth its price on sale (I bought it for $0.50 i believe). Its all played using the mouse for the most part, leaving you with one hand free which is nice.Im not sure how long the fun will stand up for, but ill edit this review after iove played it more. Till then, its an enjoyable roguelike worth its price on sale.

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
