For those that are approaching the game with fresh eyes, they might be paralyzed with choice. In other games, these options are unlocked as you attempt various runs, but Streets of Rogue exposes the player to nearly all of these amenities from the outset even for a veteran roguelike enthusiast like myself, it felt overwhelming.
There are items to purchase with currency, modifiers you can add or remove to your character, and ways to unlock fast travel to various levels. Things don’t get complex until you’re passed the tutorial and that’s when the real fun and frustration of Streets of Rogue begin.Īs with many roguelikes, the player begins each new run in a hub area.
Walking, attacking, using/equipping items, and identifying level objectives. The very beginning of the game is a tutorial that takes the player through the basics. I just wish that playing the game felt as tight and fleshed out as its systems do and that it had an art style to lend it some visual identity. You fight through levels attempting to clear objectives in order to open a path to the next floor. You choose a character with any number of stats and attributes. Streets of Rogue take on the genre is fresh and the concept is engaging while remaining straightforward. From shooters like BOI to strategy titles like Slay the Spire they all have their merits and each solid entry puts a new twist on the genre. Every time one comes out that looks even remotely fun I jump on it.
