May 2025
Held off on writing a review until 100% because I wanted to explore as much of the build variety as I could before expressing my thoughts, but I can say definitively that this game takes the cake as my favourite rogue-like. The learning curve at the beginning might as well have been a vertical line but it's incredible to experience the steady growth of game knowledge over hundreds of runs. The format is unbelievably addictive and even after failed runs that were upwards of 40 minutes I frequently found myself immediately booting up another attempt. I'm shocked that even on my final run I was discovering stuff I had no idea about regarding item and path interactions. I'll return at some point to get those final 3 hidden items, but for now, great game no notes.

The game definitely could be way better balanced, but the base mechanics are definitely good enough to give the game some replayability.

This is one of those games that as you play and figure it out, you get further and further. One day you have the furthest you've ever been. You make a stupid wrong click and dead. You won't want to play for a time. But then soon after, you just need something to focus on other than life...

Ring of Pain is an intriguing and unique roguelike card game with a dark, yet captivating atmosphere. Every run feels different thanks to its randomization and the variety of enemies and items. The tactical decisions you make with each card flip keep you on your toes, and the balance between risk and reward adds depth to every playthrough. If you're into fun, strategy-based games with a twist of unpredictability, or just looking for something to play after Slay the Spire, this game is definitely worth diving into!

Great game. Someone(s) complained about randomness, that however good you are, still you have to be lucky with the drops to finish a run, exploding creatures exploding on you, etc. Well, that is part of it, I just accepted it and enjoy the game, can play for many hours in one go.
