Summary
The games journalist has had enough of a certain genre of gaming, the rogue-like deck-builder, and calls out their frustration at what seems like an endless production line of similar products.
However, they then goes on to talk about ‘Rogue Light Deck Builder’, which is a parody game that has just enough uniqueness to be entertaining.
The game pokes fun at many of the tropes of both rogue-like and deck-building genres, as well as taking swings at games like ‘Borderlands’ and ‘Dark Souls’ in the process.
It’s a simple game, where the objective is to build a wooden balcony, using a variety of upgrades and tools to make this task more interesting.
The biggest joke in the game is the ‘escape’ key, which of course is the biggest in-game purchase and requires one million dollars to unlock.
