First adventure game I ever saw was space quest 3 in the early 90s and it blew me away with the graphics, locations, and being able to tell the character what to do. Up to that point it had just been stuff like oregon trail on PC and nes/snes games. It's been a long time but I've played almost all sierra and lucasarts games, my favs would be Grim Fandango, SQ4, KQ6, PQ3, LSL7, GK, DotT, Full Throttle, and Indy Fate of Atlantis. So many other great ones like Sam & Max, Freddy Pharkas, Torins Passage, The Dig, Monkey island series, just weren't as memorable for me though. I finally got around to playing QFG series recently as as adult so it felt different, and sadly still haven't played LOOM, and some games I never could complete (WIlly Beamish)

I find really intesting that you talked about Kingdom New Lands but not Kingdom Two Crowns, which is actually more on the rogue lite side (upon loss of the crown and heir take charge on a previous island and greed wave strength is set back 100 days). This game is awesome you should play it, plus, it's also a coop

Gunfire Reborn is a good game. Don't think you found the beauty in it. Deserves at least a B. Kingdom is more like a B. All you do is run and drop coins, very similar to Loop Hero, so not sure why you rated the two so drastically different.

Roguelike has become my favorite genre, but I don't understand why people feel the need to argue "like" vs "lite". If it has run based gameplay and permadeath with random variance than it is like the game rogue. "Lite" just feels like an unnecessary and inconsistent distinction to me.

Brotato seems to often be referred to as a Survivors-like game, being one of the gazillion Vampire Survivors knockoff games. My personal favorite Survivors-like game, other than the namesake, is Boneraiser Minions. I wish they would port that one to consoles; it is incredibly fun and addicting, and adds quite a bit to the Survivors formula. 20 Minutes Till Dawn and Army of Ruin are also pretty good. There are so many Survivors-like games, many of them good. But unfortunately most of them are PC only and don't have a console release. Most are playable on the Steam Deck though. I've also heard these being referred to as "bullet heaven" or "reverse bullet hell" as opposed to bullet hell (the idea is that bullets are going all over the place, but they're coming from you instead of at you). I'm not a fan of either name really.

I would rank Children of Morta a notch or two lower because of some gripes, notably the 'unlocks' cutscenes not taking into account the 'story progression' cutscenes. (Slight spoiler but I'll remain vague) - some things unlock only when you die or end runs often enough, and having an important story NPC bed-ridden and near death in one scene, then meeting the requirements for recruiting a new character by finishing a run and seeing the bed-ridden, near death NPC up and about and doing the dishes when they're supposed to be corrupted and on the verge of dying just really dragged me out of the story. Granted, maybe the player is supposed to believe these unlock cutscenes happened in the past, but there's no indication of that. After seeing the craft and dedication put into Hades' narrative, Children of Morta just felt unsatisfying and shoddy craftsmanship.
@00Mk0006 күн бұрын
In my opinion Slay the Spire is to be counted as a Roguelike. Yes, it technically has some meta progression, but..... you unlock it super fast. For the rest of the time, it is 100% pure roguelike.

I am really baffled that you put Loop Hero and Vampire Survivors on such a low teir, they are imo amazing games and Vampire Survivors actually has alot of story, tons of levels and tactics to it. Vampire Survivors is a Rogue Lite, but after it came out there was a surge in similar games due to it's popularity of Vampire Survivors and I think they call it "Garlic likes" now. My list of must play Rogue lites: Binding of Isaac, Slay the Spire, Dead Cells, FTL, Balatro, Hades, Rogue Legacy, Darkest Dungeon, Loop Hero. I would also recommend "knock on the Coffin Lid". It is very similar to Slay the Spire (blatant rip off), but with a twist as it has story to it and the paths are not randomized from run to run in the normal mode, but you have to learn gradually how to defeat the last boss. So far I think it is great.

For those who like the corridors the best there is a great second quest to the game you can choose to play right away that features only the corridors with automatic upgrades given to you as you progress. Just put in the code " TGL " into the password ( yes just 3 characters ) and now you can play a super solid shmup instead. This game is so awesome.

"The game doesn't really tell you how to play" very much summarizes my experience with Kingdom: New Lands. I tried it once, I think it was on one of the subscription services, because I see it get recommended often, but I just couldn't figure out what to do at all. Considering the praise you're giving it as well, maybe I'll just give it another chance sometime. It's usually pretty cheap when it's on sale anyway. Did you try World of Horror? I think that usually counts as a roguelite. If anything it's a very unique style of game. I haven't played enough of it myself to really recommend it in any way. But with many of these kinds of game kinda blurring together, it's nice to have something very different.

Great list and good to hear opinions that mean that even if I don't agree with a particular rating, I can at least understand why you feel differently. For me the Roguelite genre is inferior to the Roguelike genre in instances where a run can't be beaten without the meta progression. I was rubbed the wrong way by Rogue Legacy because it's practically impossible to win that game on your first run. Even if you were an experienced player, you need meta progression stats to make the game playable, so you basically need to grind for a significant number of runs before you can expect to win your first time. Contrast that to something like Slay the Spire (happy to see the S rank!) where you'll likely lose your first run, but if an experienced player starts a fresh save file they will have absolutely no issue beating the final boss on their first run because the 'meta progression' is really just card unlocks to encourage you to keep playing. New players aren't using all of the cards/relics anyway, so gating some of them for your first handful of runs isn't meaningfully restrictive and gives you something shiny while you're likely repeatedly losing.
