TL;DR: In a way, it's sort of like a serial sex offender. It's really good at what it sets out to do, but maybe you don't always want it to be. Negatives? Difficulty. It's not actually unfair, but the severity with which it punishes mistakes is akin to blood-eagle'ing a 3rd grader for failing a math problem. Something I like to say is that this game requires at least some combination of mental illnesses and/or personality disorders to earnestly enjoy its challenge aspect. Another thing that "jimmies certain rustles" is the semi-modest number of ideologically charged anti-pozzed jokes (or as some would call them - acts of thought terrorism) peppered throughout the game. They... don't land consistently. But for what it's worth, they also don't suck consistently. Overall, while I don't think they add much, those are nonetheless *my* side's jokes and therefore that makes it okay. No, I'm not kidding. Positives Visuals are good. They're not impressive, but that's not important. What's important is they are coherent. The maps are very clean and easy to navigate. The monsters are all approximately as dangerous as they look. UI only shows what it needs. Compared to its competition Rogue's Tale feels downright IMMERSIVE, and that's one hell of a rare boast for a trad roguelike. Controls are great. They're lightweight and work wonderfully with mouse if you're one of those heretics like myself who plays trad roguelikes with only one hand on the keyboard. Everything is but a couple keystrokes or clicks away, like a normal videogame, and there's no need to commit more keybinds to memory than you could find on an airplane control pannel. Mechanics are intuitive. Rogue's Tale has standardized mechanics, rigid boundaries, impactful and coherent effects, it's comfortable to get into without requiring a PHD in advanced autism while still being deep enough to allow for some outlandish theorycrafting. Downright artist level of game design, don't see this kind of competence every day. One of the absurdly few rogue-adjacent games to get meta-progression right. Purists need not apply, and can go back to huffing the expulsions of their digestive systems until they lose all brain functions from critical methane poisoning. In this game meta rewards feel: - Meaningful. No +1.5% damage that you need to buy 500 times. You get noticable benefits and/or unique effects for each unlock. - Earned. You're not gonna be dying in the first dungeon until you gather enough s##tcoins to buy +1.5% damage 500 times and oneshot everyone. In here you need to do achievements before you're allowed to get meta-unlocks. And you won't complete those achievements until you learn how to play. This game operates under the "You don't get it until you prove you don't need it" philosophy. No cheap hollow victories, by the time you're a demigod - you will feel like you deserved every single ounce of power you fought tooth, nail, hair, and dingleberry for. Conclusion Well I love it. 520+ hours, 100% in all 552 achievements (although to be honest, it's more like 352 because around 200 of the cheevos are dedicated to each individual collectible card so that doesn't really count), endless steam forum posts with feedback... It just overall feels like a videogame that's fun to play (which is quite ironic for one of, if not the most psychotically cruel roguelikes on the market). Rogue's Tale is in my top 10 favorite games, probably top 5. If you're anything like myself... Well first of all, you have my condolences just in general, but other than that do give it a chance.

Its fun, I have no idea why the dev has gone for such overdone cheat protection on such an rng driven game though :)

Splattercat covered this so i got it. Fun as all hell. It's brutal so if you whine about dying a lot you should pass on this. Each run gets you better at the game and unlockables that affect later playthroughs.
