Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
130 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
You can carry four weapons at a time, and most of the weapons I’ve unlocked so far feel fun to use.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.

Ziggurat 2 is, at the time of this review, easily one of my favorite FPS Roguelites in a genre that is slowly growing in size: Cohesive, colorful, packed full of content, and just complex enough to elevate the gameplay above a mindless FPS.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
67 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
This means each quest can feel slightly different, which helps to keep the game feeling interesting even after you’ve beaten several dungeons.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
50 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
At lower difficulty levels, players are free to tackle the dungeons like a laid back shooter...but it's at higher difficulty levels where I feel like the game really shines, with a greater emphasis on planning out your build and leaning into the character, tools, and perks you have on hand.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
49 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It's got a real Hexxen vibe, especially on levels where the penalty is retro graphics.
Performance
Players who bring up Performance mostly praise it.
46 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
If you like FPS, magic, and generally really great things you should definitely pick this up and support the devs!
