I spent an hour creating a character, thinking about interactions between mutations. Spawned in, moved one screen over -- evil twin spawns and instantly slays me.

Game of the year.

I absolutely adore this game, a wonderfully deep true rougelike experience! Plays surprisingly well on the steamdeck, after a few extra keybinds and I honestly prefer the experience to keyboard. I strongly urge all my friends to give this gem a go. Live and drink.

Hard to describe it as anything other than "Best of its kind."
Any of its few problems can be modded out, and the game sees consistent support.

The community seems to suffer from PTSD but that aside this game is brilliant, well worth your time and money.

Easily one of the best and most immersive games I have had the pleasure to play

Amazing open-world roguelike. Allows for a large amount of freedom in character creation, gameplay, story and quest decisions, and overall approach. Really great.

My only complaint is that it's totally viable to make a character build centered around growing a party of strong companions- it's a super fun way to play but also incredibly tedious. It currently functions basically the same as companions in Fallout 3/NV, except there isn't a real companion cap. So you can have as many companions as you want but you have to manage them individually through dialogue-esque menus. You also do not have fine control over their equipment or stat progression. You can only give them items to hold and they will equip what they think is best.

This is honestly holding the game back a lot in my opinion. Hopefully it can be adressed with some kind of centralized party management UI in the future. There is not really even a good mod solution.

Live and drink!

Game is very fun with only a bit of clunky-ness here and there with things like looting or heightened hearing stopping the auto explore because you detected a enemy through several walls.

Walked into some lava deep underground, lost my only light source. Wandered into a glass wall and broke it, walked in and started freezing to death because they built a room just to keep a clone of some guy permanently frozen and now i can't move as i slowly die. Detonated 2 thermal grenades on myself to get unfrozen but i also free the clone, who is hostile and my chances to beat him are rated "impossible". Escape him because for all that power he can't see in the dark either, and i have good hearing so i can detect nearby enemies even if i can't see. Its a unique game.

I have tried on multiple occasions to get into this game, but I just haven't ever enjoyed it. I typically enjoy roguelikes a great deal and bought this based on how highly praised it is, but I just don't see the appeal.

Tried to get into the game but I felt clueless after getting lost in the first dungeon and the devs don't seem to nice. Might be worth it if I put more time into it but it just doesn't seem like the game for me.

I like roguelikes and I like MUDs, so I thought this was the game for me. I was wrong and it isn't: the user interface is a clusterf-, the low contrast overall (teal everywhere) doesn't help, and the writing is poor. To me, it's just boring.
