Title
Despite this game's faults (way too short, boring/nonexistent story, repetitive) I find the core gameplay so tight and addictive that it's really hard not to like it anyway. I don't often find myself sucked in by a game like I was by this one; it was hard to put it down from the first time I played it to when I beat the final boss. It was a lot of fun to see the unique combo of Metroidvania with the Roguelite genre, and although Dead Cells does that same thing and excels in a lot of ways that this game failed, I can't look back on my playthrough of Rogue Legacy without a good sense of appreciation and fond memories. I found that the game really fizzled out hard at the end, but the meat of the game was juicy enough for me to love it all the same. The fact that it had very polished and cute graphics and a great sense of humor certainly didn't hurt its cause.

    also as one of the reviewers here pointed out, it feels like a missed opportunity that the descendants have absolutely nothing to do with their ancestors, which is not what I was expecting for a game where the "legacy" is right in the title

    this one has aged pretty poorly in the wake of a lot of the games that were inspired by it, still alright though

    The game that ruined roguelikes by proving that all you need to sell a subpar action game is to ducktape a progression system on to it.

      because the game is more of an rpg than action. the exploration and progression are compelling enough to keep replaying.

    As someone who loves obsessively breaking every object in every room in Castlevania, this game is like crack to me.

    First time playing this and did not find it dated at all. Played 10 hours nearly non-stop to beat it as I found the progression and fast-paced action super addictive.

    I tried giving this a fair chance a while ago. But some of the platforming and the lack of health pick-ups just turned me the fuck off.
