I do play a lot of action roguelikes so it really surprised me that this one became a favorite of the general audience. It's not exactly a bad game but after seeing the crazy amount of positive reviews on Steam, I expected something better. Something much better to be precise.

It sports overly stylized graphics, some ridiculous (visually) enemy designs, an annoying soundtrack and not very engaging action gameplay. Add low run variety to the mix - every single one feels more or less the same since the start of late game (4.-5. stage). The chosen survivor and their skillset does not matter that much anymore. Items are everything.

What I unironically enjoy the most about the game is the weird lore delivered in the form of item/enemy logs.

To say it was a letdown after all the hype would be an understatement. It's kind of ok but there are so many better to choose from.
