Getting into DCSS a lot recently. Still just running Minotaur Berserker with the furthest I've made it being the 10th floor aha.

Regardless, really enjoying it and wondering if others have any other recommendations. I tried ToME4 and just felt overwhelmed and wasn't enjoying myself too much.

Have my eyes of Caves of Qud as well. Love the more "literary" aspect to it (even though I know it's often nonsense), and the atmosphere/setting. Seems to be highly regarded overall though. Wondering if I should buy it and play alongside DCSS.

This is a little bit of a deep cut, but the roguelike add-on to Remnant From the Ashes honestly slaps if you enjoy the core gameplay loop. (The pitch is "Dark Souls with guns," which is like 70% accurate.) High quality 3rd person gunplay, awesome abilities, fun enemies, wacky builds, beautiful maps.

EDIT. Remnant is on sale for $13 on Steam! A very good deal, esp. with Remnant 2 coming out this year!

Darkest Dungeon is also great if you like oppressive horror vibes.

I've always enjoyed roguelikes but never really been able to spend a lot of time with a single one until Risk of Rain. It's my absolute go-to.

Inscryption is pretty great. It's like a horror card game.

I like rogue-lites a bit more, so thethese games may or may not fit your interests.

  • Permadeath mode in No Man's Sky
  • Darkest Dungeon
  • Everspace 1
  • Ziggurat
  • Eldritch
  • Heavy Bullets
  • Teleglitch
  • Legend of Grimrock on Ultra Ironman difficulty
  • Legend of Grimrock 2 with roguelike mod
  • Dark Souls

I'm actually not sure if this fully counts as a roguelike (because I'm not really super familiar with the genre), but I started Returnal on PC yesterday and it already seems to be a pretty darn good game only after 30 minutes of play time. I am looking forward to putting more time into it!

It does fit the bill but this one is kinda weird. I loved it don't get me wrong but it doesn't seem like it has a whole lot replayability when you manage to finish the game. I'd still recommend it tho !
