Five more classes can be added to the line up via DLC - each DLC costing $1.99 and adding new items and monsters alongside the new characters.įans of classic/traditional roguelikes will feel at home with Sword of the Stars: The Pit and it's a shame it's been overlooked for more visually appealing options. The Gold Edition release, which added four additional classes, now comes standard with the game on Steam for a total of seven out of the box. It requires heavy resource management, the will to survive at any costs, and careful stat/skill point allotments to survive, scavenge, and fight your way to the depths of The Pit. The game borrows a lot from classic roguelikes.
But it may just be your next planned purchase if you've been looking for a new roguelike and have somehow overlooked this gem. Sword of the Stars: The Pit - Gold Editionįor me, Sword of the Stars: The Pit was an impulse purchase during a sale. It's great, okay? There is no reason not to own this game if you like action platformers and Metroidvanias. This creates new gameplay experience for anyone who played it on the Xbox 360 first. PC (as opposed to console) players have the extra option to play with mouse and keyboard - which plays amazingly well as attacks are tied to the mouse.

There's so much to say about Dust: An Elysian Tail it's hard to know where to start, but the best place may just be that it's the full package in terms of what one would want from a Metroidvania, even with the anthropomorphic characters.ĭust gives players a ton of secrets to find (true to the Metroidvania genre), a respectably-sized game length with an interesting story, and gameplay that's just as fluid as its animations.
This one may not be the least known indie title out there, but Dust: An Elysian Tail is often overlooked because of its basic art style and sometimes grating voice acting.ĭon't let either of these things deter you: It's a worthy action platformer with plenty of content and solid gameplay.
