A really fun text-based RPG game, it’s a promising and enjoyable experience with a lot of charm6 found this helpful
The Between is a text-based roguelike that delivers way more than you'd expect. The writing is immersive, the music sets a haunting tone, and each run feels personal and meaningful. With 50+ skills, evolving abilities, random events, and custom skill creation, there’s plenty of depth. If you enjoy dark, story-rich games that make you think — this one’s a gem.3 found this helpful
Dull, repetitive, hard to understand, would not recommend.1 found this helpful
This game mixes roguelike mechanics with a rich, emotional story in a really creative way. The wave-based combat is engaging, and the variety of enemies and events keeps things fresh. Facing twisted reflections of your character adds a personal touch that most RPGs don’t even try. It’s polished, thoughtful, and totally worth your time.1 found this helpful
So this is definitely the first text based roguelike I've played, but I can't help but want to play non stop. Best way to explain if you'll like this game or not, but like I'd give it an Autism approved label on this game. (Anyways back to playing more, I must 100%)1 found this helpful
