Tangledeep

seen dr incompetent play it and been hooked since well worth the money good systems solid roguelike good variety of items and classes and dungeons

Very fun traditional roguelike game. If you dig turn based rogue games, this is a gem. There's plenty of interesting classes to play with different styles and abilities. You do get to mix in classes to add their passives to your class if you like (and can switch back to your original or keep a new one).I had a fun time beating the game.

Tangledeep is a roguelike RPG that manages to combine old-school dungeon crawling with modern accessibility in a way that feels both nostalgic and refreshingly polished. Inspired heavily by classic 16-bit role-playing games, the title blends retro pixel art, strategic turn-based combat, and procedurally generated exploration into a deeply rewarding experience that consistently encourages experimentation. Developed by Impact Gameworks, the game captures the spirit of classic Japanese RPG adventures while embracing the unpredictability and challenge of traditional roguelikes. What initially appears to be a simple retro dungeon crawler gradually reveals itself as a remarkably deep and carefully designed adventure filled with customization, tactical decision-making, and endless replay value. The game takes place in a world where humanity has spent generations underground, cut off from the mysterious surface above. The gigantic labyrinth known as Tangledeep serves as the only path toward freedom and discovery. This premise immediately creates a strong sense of mystery and progression, because every journey deeper into the dungeon feels connected to a larger adventure waiting beyond the…

It's a bit too "JRPG adjacent" for my taste but I understand that can actually be a pro for some people. It's quite fun and gives you lots of build freedom.

Played this for quite some time, and it's only with perseverance and experimentation will you learn the best way to approach every encounter and situation, and it'll be so rewarding every time you do. I love the OST and story, it comes together to make a genuinely moving and endearing experience of a rougelike dungeon crawler. Fully recommended if that's what you're looking for.

Read so many good things, finally started playing, most ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ horrible controls I have ever seen, refunded. Never have I witnessed a game that has such ♥♥♥♥♥♥ controls on both controller and keyboard, with incredibly unhelpful keymapping on top. "start" is not, in fact, start on the controller, but select AND start... The tutorial is a joke. It teaches you nothing, and essentially goes "figure it out, good luck", throwing random button names at you, that you have to look up anyway. Says "keyboard layout WASD" and then you move with the arrow keys. Overly convoluted menus. People say this is a lovechild of TOME. Only if it's functionally handicapped in every department. This is so far away from TOME, I can't even start to tell people how and where that is a horrible comparison. ♥♥♥♥ right off.
