SpellRogue is phenomenal as you discover all the different characters and builds, with a healthy balance of managing the inherent randomness in dice through a diverse spell build and optimizing for maximum synergy.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
38 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Playable characters are fun and moderately different, enemies and bosses are fun to fight, spells and buffs are fun to choose and equip which makes runs feel unique.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
29 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
When it comes to the art style, I must say that it is one of the best I've encountered in a roguelike deckbuilder game.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
13 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The music and the sound effects are all pleasant to listen to.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
9 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The introduction of dice makes you feel much more in control of how each round of combat plays out, especially with many of the starter decks for each character that have their own genius strategy.
Steam Deck
Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
If you’re into roguelikes or card-based games, and you’re playing on Steam Deck, this one is a no-brainer.
