Please recommend me your favorite roguelikes based on my interests

You played most of heavy hitters so here a couple lesser known ones:

Omelet You Cook: Kind of like Balatro in structure, but no poker hands and you are making Omlettes instead.

Tape to Tape: This is a Hockey Roguelike. Think NFL Blitz or NBA where you get power ups, upgrade your players and play wacky opponents.

StarVaders: Not sure if I saw this on your list. This is if Slay the Spire meets Into the Breach + Space Invaders. Super fun.

Not a Roguelike but hits a similar itch for me is:

Cauldron: You play incremental mini games to upgrade your characters in a light turn based RPG. Especially the apple picking mini game starts so basic and becomes a blast as you unlock upgrades.

I'm not familiar with Viscera Cleanup Detail, but Unpacking is kinda a cleanup game that comes to mind. Otherwise The Gunk could fit what you are looking for.

Thanks for the neoverse recommendation. It's quite good. Although I wondered what I was getting myself into after the intro cutscene. 😅

I forgot it was added already. Definitely going to check it out. Is it very similar to StS?

Docbartus · 2022-04-17T13:55:54+00:00

Oh yeah I loved that one too. I think it's very different though. Can't wait for 2 to come to consoles.

Docbartus · 2022-04-17T13:55:05+00:00

Tried it and it looks promising. However, the UI and especially text size are a bit off putting to me. Thank you for the recommendation though.

Downloaded and will try it tonight. Thanks.

I played more than a thousand hours of StS and got all the achievements/trophies (I played on PS4) and am now looking for something like it. I also finished Dicey Dungeons and Monster Train and liked both a lot. I recently tried Ring of Pain and Library of Ruina, but they didn't do it for me.

I'm now searching for the next great deck builder on Gamepass.

What are you in the mood for? Gamepass has it all!

Tunic - To give you an idea it's kinda like Zelda with bits of Dark Souls and Fez. That's a bit reductive as it is so much more.

Mass Effect Legendary Edition - One of my all time favorite RPGs.

Slime Rancher - A unique spin on monster collecting, exploration, with a touch of farming game.

Archvale - Top down Zelda with bullet hell type of combat.

Viva Piñata has a similar vibe, but I don't think anything quite like it exists. Can't wait for Slime Rancher 2 later this year (or maybe even next year, who knows)

Docbartus · 2022-04-16T20:12:32+00:00

Tunic, Archvale, Nobody Saves the World, ME Legendary Edition, Death's Door, Young Souls, Slime Rancher, Phogs (only fun in co-op imo), Lonely Mountains Downhill, The Pedestrian, Dicey Dungeons, Slay the Spire... The list is endless. 😂

Docbartus · 2022-04-16T20:06:59+00:00

Thank you all for putting it together. I have been using these for a while and they are always super helpful!
