A brilliant little guide. I personally have played this game a hell of a lot and learnt a great deal from reading that.

Skate-AK3490d ago

Going to bookmark this. Been wanting to play the game but have been apprehensive because of the horror stories I hear about the difficulty.

UglyGeezer3490d ago

Far from it Skate, it's a real pick up and play game.. It's as you go on, the complexity kicks in.

It's a great game, even when you don't have a clue.

aemosier3490d ago

It's not easy, but it is by no means too difficult to play. There is an obvious learning curve but nothing too bad.

FrugalDaz3490d ago

The themes in this game are really out there. You want 'grown up' gaming? This is your baby.

Nivekki3490d ago

One of the most re-playable games in the world, and one of the best games ever made in my opinion. I bought the Afterbirth dlc yesterday and started a new save to play through, what I've seen so far makes an excellent game even more excellent.

Looking at Steam I have 223 hours logged, but I also have it on my ps4 and have around 90 odd hours on that as well. Oh and 198 hours on the original Binding of Issac, lol.

It's fair to say I love this game.

So when does afterbirth release for PS4?

The Best Roguelike Games

IGN : Ask three different video game fans to define what a “Roguelike” is, and chances are, you’re likely to get three very different responses: One might say "Oh yeah, those are like that game with the sexy greek gods!" Another might reply "No, you idiot, Hades is a Rogue-LITE. A roguelike is a game like Spelunky." And another still might slam their hands on the table and shout, "The reason why they're called rogueLIKES is because they're LIKE the 1980s dungeon crawler rogue. None of those games are roguelikes at all!"

Everspace, Moonlighter and Monster Train are my top 3 quick time wasters.

Atom6661450d ago

Can't argue there. I am firmly on the Hades bandwagon too.

i81duce1450d ago

I’ll have to agree with a comment below that Binding of Isaac is my top, but thank you for 3 recommendations that I’ve never heard of to appease my addiction. @atom666, I’ll try and see what Hades is all about as welll ☺️

Loved FTL.

Oh, & Dungeons of Dredmor was pretty good.

Eviltattoo 1450d ago

My daughter and I had a blast with Rogue Legacy - our favorite by far.
We also enjoyed Undermine which I didn't see make this list unfortunately.

Vanfernal1450d ago

To me Binding of Isaac is the GOAT. No two runs in that game feel the same. The unlimited combinations of item synergies is still something no game has been able to match.

Hollow Knight was a masterpiece. I cared less for the arena combat (Gods, not in the in-game arena) but everything was tight and the exploration was extremely enjoyable. Absolute masters of their craft in level design. I hope Silk Song gives the bees a second chance since their area was only a short subsection.
