⚔️ 🏔️ Preview: Caves of Qud (Early Access) "What The Hell is Going On?" 🏔️ ⚔️ #GameDev #IndieGame

Game Title: Caves of Qud (early access)

I feel ill-equipped to preview Caves of Qud (COQ) because the only other pure roguelike game that I’ve played in any real depth was Ancient Domains of Mystery, a few months ago (A game that I found to be more initially accessible than Caves of Qud) and I’m glad I did, because compared to this game, ADOM was a breeze.

⚔️ Review: Pylon: Rogue - "rogue, rogue, rogue your boat" 🧙🏻‍♂️ #GameDev #IndieGame

Game Title: Pylon: Rogue

Developer: Quantum Squid Interactive

Platform Reviewed: PC (Steam)

Pylon Rogue is an action/adventure roguelike game which looks great in trailers but when played, doesn’t quite hold up to the initial promise.

🍄 Review: Mushroom Wars 2 - "It’s….it’s….it’s a mobile port" 🍄

Game Title: Mushroom Wars 2

Developer: Zillion Whales

Platform Reviewed: Nintendo Switch

I just wanted to say something to preface my review. I have never been a fan of mobile games and generally avoid playing them or reviewing them as I have a general disdain for their design and marketing. My problem is, “games as a service” has basically been the default model on mobile from the start, so now the expectation is that all games will be “free to start”.
