i must preface my thoughts with the fact that i am not a rougelike enjoyer. however, when a friend of mine managed to get me to try this game, i was near instantly hooked. it is oozing with fun elements and creativity that you can see in the weapons, characters, and setting. it is still challenging but i believe this is a great rougelike for beginners to the genre, as there are many things in place to help you along the way. small bonus if you are a dungeons and dragons player, as there are several nods to tabletop gameplay present as well.
