Relic Abyss, developed by Reverse Loop and published by Mameshiba Games, takes the increasingly popular survivor-style roguelite formula and injects it with a surprisingly rich blend of fantasy adventure, cosmic horror, and long-term progression systems.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.

Not sure what it is but something is working here, i usually fall asleep after awhile in these games to repetitive but this one keeps me going, i think it is the sub goals on the maps that actually rewards you for playing constantly with more then a 1% upgrade rewards (sure they have them as well) and also the story is great, the little cut scenes are fun and keeps me want to see more.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
5 of 62 sampled reviews raised it

As for the visuals, they’re very cute and remind me of games from years ago in terms of artistic design.
