Steam review snapshots
Bosses are typically robotic behemoths and are generally well-designed, with the final boss being my personal favorite.It’s a completely different vibe than most first-person roguelikes, and it works well here.It lacks the addictive “one more run” quality of better roguelikes.Many turret-style hostiles hold static positions, though to comedic effect they’re often latched to moving walls or upside down on a roof.Why it fits
Check it if you want action filtered by single-player.
