Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
40 of 204 sampled reviews raised it
To me they condense the key elements of games to the most fundamental components and allow a depth of gameplay (without grind) that other types of games can only dream of.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
12 of 204 sampled reviews raised it
One major, welcome convenience is that weapons that drop from enemies are always empty of ammo.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
10 of 204 sampled reviews raised it
It should be pointed out that although the game does not have the depth or variety of something like DCSS it is still a complex game with plenty of depth (and difficulty).
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
8 of 204 sampled reviews raised it
The sound design and attitude is still there from Jupiter Hell, but the engine is from the chaotic and crunchy DRL, and the graphics are pixelly and (importantly) work on my 6 year old laptop with no dGPU.
Steam Deck
Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.
6 of 204 sampled reviews raised it
P.S. it's truly Steam Deck optimized with a great control scheme and everything.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
6 of 204 sampled reviews raised it
