Rogue: Genesia

Vampire Survivors and Slay The Spire are the OGs and Luca / Mega Crit Games deserve respect making those great games, bringing that format to the spotlight; These games have provided obvious inspiration for this title. Rogue Genesia feels like the best survivors game I've played thus far (Out of: Megabonk, Brotato, Enter the Gungeon, Soulstone Survivors, 20 Minutes Til Dawn, Death Must Die, Conquest Dark, and Deep Rock Survivors). All those games are good in their own way, but each have an aspect that irks me; Mostly involving the enemy scaling or player stat limitations. Rogue Genesia throws this aside and gives you the almighty power to crunch numbers and work to break the game, which is what I think the developer is challenging you to do. For those trying to understand what the gameplay is: you can follow a Slay the Spire type map that puts you in various Vampire Survivors style instance that involve objectives, collecting gold, and powering up your character to reach the end unlocking more for you to explore. The other option is to run a potentially endless gauntlet like Vampire Survivors on a chosen tileset. As you play through the game you get to unlock more and more, further honing game knowledge at the same time and giving an organic direction when you start looking at what builds you want to try. I absolutely recommend buying this, especially while it is on sale and/or in a discounted collection. Thank you to Plexus or OuadiHuard (whichever he prefers) for this polished gem and I hope it brings him great success.
