Hargh blargh games are bad, roguelikes are worse, whinge moan complain. It is that time once again. You know whether my complaints will bother you, so consider this a massive recommendation if they dont: Shardtide Verminp… Punktide Verminsha… Shardpunk… goddamn it. Hang on.
Shardpunk Verminfall is, as Graham reported, an excellent mash-up of several familiar games and concepts, yet doesn’t feel like a knockoff of any, or lack its own identity. I would resent it a lot less if it wasn’t also a roguelike. Even with its standard mono-save system and unlocking things and “repeating the whole thing from scratch ad infinitum” though, I can’t pretend I don’t enjoy it anyway.
