Rezrog

Wow. DO NOT BUY THIS GAME. Completely unplayable. Game breaking bugs literally stop all progress and you cannot progress. Dev's haven't addressed a single issue since 2017. Dead game.

I bought this on sale for $1.29. It's got simple game mechanics, and a cool aesthetic. But it's got one glaring problem: It's not fun. When you're defeated, you have to send in another teammate to rescue captured heroes. I got my first guy through the dungeon alright. But every other player I sent through died at least twice, no matter what I did. So now my main tank guy is like level 4 just from rescuing all the newbs who can't even get through the starter dungeon without dying. This is not fun. Potions are useless. It uses a turn to drink them, but while that turn is taken, the enemy hits you and undoes the health recovery. So just... don't bother I guess. Spam attacks and hope for the best. But you'll probably die and have to be rescued. But in order to advance, you have to have at least a couple of higher-levelled heroes to rescue the guy from the next level, because your main guy will invariably be killed and need to be rescued, possibly several times. This is not fun. There's a roulette wheel at the start of every dungeon that randomly screws you for the run, -10 damage on all attacks, or enemies get more health, etc. It's like they're trying to punish you for playing. …

Rezrog, developed by Soaphog and published by Kasedo Games, is a dungeon-crawling roguelike RPG that immediately distinguishes itself through its tabletop-inspired presentation. Rather than relying on traditional fantasy art direction, the game adopts the visual language of miniature board-game figurines, cardboard terrain, and exaggerated tokens. This aesthetic choice isn’t just a stylistic flourish—it informs how the world feels and functions. Every dungeon resembles a constructed playset, every character looks like a painted figurine, and every combat encounter feels like a turn taken around an imaginary table. It creates a cozy familiarity, especially for players who have spent years around physical board games, and it allows Rezrog to feel charming even when the gameplay grows tense or punishing. At its core, Rezrog follows a simple but effective structure: assemble a roster of adventurers, enter procedurally generated dungeons, defeat enemies, harvest loot, and climb the difficulty ladder in pursuit of powerful gems. The twist lies in how the game handles failure. Instead of simply killing a character when a dungeon run goes wrong, Rezrog “captures” them—removing them from a…
