Maybe the best puzzle game on Steam. It's the kind that gives you a box full of Lego and a new shape to make each time. You could do it any which way with a whole bunch of pieces, but the fun's in grabbing a new bunch each time and figuring out how they'll fit together. Maybe trying to do it in as few pieces as possible, that kind of thing. It's kind of a roguelike? But it's just pure tactics - if you ever played Hoplite on iOS/Android it's like that times a million. You'll know within the refund window if you click with it, and if you do then you'll get your money's worth for sure. All of the above also goes for Rift Wizard 1. Do a bit of research on which you'd prefer as they're very similar games that go in different design directions. 2 doesn't nullify 1, it's less of a sequel and more of the dev's do-over of an already great game. If you want even MORE build synergy focus and less tactics, Path of Achra is that way.

Feels harder than the original which I don't have a problem with, but it's not necessarily harder in a good way, which I do have more of a problem with. What I mean by all that is the difficulty feels a tad opaque. It's a little tricky to explain this but essentially I would describe the distinction in terms of the fact that a game's difficulty comes down to "how many times do I need to have a crack at this before I get the hang of it?", whereas the transparency/opacity of a game's difficulty comes down to "how much of my improvement at this game feels intentional versus just throwing random ideas at the wall and seeing what sticks?". A bit convoluted but hopefully that makes sense, and I found that with Rift Wizard 2 the very much welcome increase in difficulty level was accompanied by a very unwelcome feeling the difficulty is significantly less transparent. I would say all told that if you've never played Rift Wizard before, you could give this title OR the original a whirl and I think either option is pretty good. If you're a super fan of the original and desperate for just any additional content along the lines of the first then of course this is similarly a pretty easy recommend for you. However, if you're a player who wasn't entirely convinced by the game play of the first title and you are hoping this might perhaps deliver an improved superior experience, I'd have to say I very much doubt that it will cater to anybody fitting that description. So all in all it's a happy Recommend from me, although YMMV depending on the finer details of your circumstances.

I might be statistically one of the worst players to ever touch this game with nearly 100 hours played and zero dubs, but this game is tight if u like classic-style roguelikes with a heavy focus on strategy, immense build variety, and infinite replayability

This works perfectly on the steamdeck! You just need to go properties, set resolution to 1600x900 and launch default, not windowed. Key bindings by valve are serviceable, but you have to make your own layout for this to be a smoooooth gameplay experience.

I am too stupid for this game. If you have a ripply brain like the ocean waves during a storm this will likely be for you. 10/10 Ego Check.
