A Robot Named Fight" is an underrated gem that is often misunderstood. At first glance, it appears to be a straightforward Metroidvania, a clear homage to Super Metroid, sticking to familiar conventions and structure. However, as you play, die, and retry, the game gradually opens up, unlocking new items, power-ups, rooms, biomes, and lore. This evolving experience pushes it into Roguevania territory. The most pronounced rogue-element is permadeath: unless you have a single-use save-room secured, a single defeat means starting fresh. At first, this feels restrictive, encouraging cautious play and grinding over exploration. Yet, over time, the game reveals itself as more than just a brutal test of survival—it's primarily a Metroid-inspired randomizer/mutator that evolves as you progress. If you cannot get enough of the original formula, this is gold. There's an impressive variety of unlockables, with many items serving similar functions—such as the rocket launcher (weapon), rocket bolts (gun mod), and rocket boomerang (equipment). Each can open rocket-locked doors, yet they play differently and offer unique advantages. This is a cool spin on progression, well coupled with procedurally generated levels. However, rooms are more shuffled than uniquely generated. I never encountered an unplayable run, but levels feel familiar after just a few attempts. While I continued discovering new room layouts even after 100+ runs, many areas felt repetitive. Exploration is also minimal. Rooms containing secret objects are clearly marked on the mini-map, and you can often spot precisely where the hidden item is located—or simply know it, if it's a familiar room. While this design choice supports the game's fast-paced progression, it can be a letdown for traditional Metroidvania fans. The pixel art style creates an immersive atmosphere that reminds me of the golden age of the genre. The soundtrack is good, the SFX are unfortunately unappealing. I also struggled with the reverse-dystopia story at first—it felt cheap and unconvincing—but in the end, it works and surprisingly even makes somehow sense. Despite these quirks, the game's approach demands adaptability and persistence, rewarding players who embrace its evolving nature. In summary, A Robot Named Fight is a beautifully crafted, often misunderstood experience that truly shines after multiple playthroughs. The developers clearly poured their hearts into every detail, blending classic Metroidvania gameplay with modern rogue-like meta-progression. It really offers a lot for a (very) small price. 7.5/10

This game has had me hooked ever since I bought the game! I’ve already clocked over 50 hours into the game in two weeks. It’s a combination of a metroidvania with rogue-lite aspects. Lots of secrets and hidden goodies to look for too. I want to be clear, this game is difficult. You’re going to have a learning curve to it at first, but as you progress through the game, you will get used to everything and how it feels. Fight does feel sluggish when starting out, but you can fix that. It does help to know that going into this. Another thing that will help is knowing that there is always a way to go, even if you don’t think there is, just keep looking around and you will find the way. My favorite aspects of this is the game plays like Super Metroid. You get upgrades, but upgrades will always be different every run. In addition, the map will always be different every run, so it provides a unique experience every time you play the game. Overall, this game is absolutely worth the money. It does go on sale, but for either full price or a discounted price, I would pay for it either way.

The fact that a roguelike is able to bring the same satisfaction as Super Metroid in terms of the secret hunting and power progression while still having its own identity is absolutely stellar. If you haven't played this game and are a fan of OG Metroid, you owe it to yourself to at least try it.

The first time I played "A Robot Named Fight" was on the Nintendo Switch. Got it on sale for $0.99 and it was well worth it. A Metroidvania with procedural generation of maps each time you die. The rooms themselves are fixed though, so that runs will always be possible. There are many weapons and items to collect to help you fight off the fleshy invaders with items unlocking as you play through the game. Teleporters and Revenant stations are pretty neat too. If you die, you can spawn one time back at a Revenant station for a second chance. In the end 5/5 stars from me.

This is what happens when metroidvania roguelikes actually apply the full metroidvania formula to their gameplay. Really quality platformer and metroid-like (a metroid vania ). It is not just a metroid game turned rogue like though, there are many new ideas and they don't feel out of place at all. Using the metroidvania formula also just makes the abilities/artifacts you obtain feel just about as satisfying as in a typical metroid game or other non-roguelike metroidvania. The game is very Super Metroid flavored from the actual content to even the controls, and I feel there were even some hints of Mega Man with the way weapons are handled (death animation has gotta be Mega Man). "The last Metroid is in captivity. The galaxy is at peace." are the words I hear over this games intro. This game even includes a bit of sequence breaking Buy if you like Super Metroid and roguelikes, or even just 1 of the 2, this game is pretty good.
