Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
9 of 42 sampled reviews raised it
It's relatively cheap for the content in it, and a variety of playstyles is always a plus.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
6 of 42 sampled reviews raised it
That does rob the game of the usual rogue sensation of escalating strength and the thrill of lucking into an item that totally warps your run, but the flip side is how well it embraces that retro combat simplicity... which pays off because that combat is fun.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
5 of 42 sampled reviews raised it
Pixel art style - do not understand me wrong, in general it's good, but the style sometimes is too much basic, while I see that it can be better for some models and envs.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
4 of 42 sampled reviews raised it
I thought the difficulty was good too, even though I struggled it felt rewarding to finally beat a boss I had been struggling with.
