Mystical Map

If you're looking for a bite-sized game for a reasonable price then I recommend giving this a try. I'm generally not big on roguelikes, but I do love metroidvanias so the map system scratches that itch nicely on planning out how many items I'd like to get on each run or if I just want to speed through it. For a first attempt solo dev project made in his spare time I think this game turned out pretty solid.

Very fun game that I'm absolutely terrible at.

A great little title, with solid variety and challenge! Runs are short, but the variety of sub-weapons and relics keeps things fresh every time through! Well worth the $4 price tag!

Never been the best at games like this, but I liked the concept of choosing my own direction! Have been enjoying the gameplay quite a bit even if I die a lot. The game keeps making want to try again and see if I can do better! Combat can be a bit grindy at first, but once you get things down and do some trial and error, it's a lot of fun!

A really inventive take on the roguelike formula, getting to plot out your own map path swaps the uncertainty of the usual randomly-generated map ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ for a cooler feeling of ownership. I made the dungeon that is now whooping my ass, that rocks

Mystical map has been on my radar for a minute now, what with the concept of charting your own rogue-like maps. And that price point? Sign me right up, Susan. My very first foray into Mystical Map was while I was sitting in a coffee shop. The download was quick and I was right into the game. Therefor, if you have a few bucks and a minute, you could be playing right now. The first thing I noticed was the combat, it does take a little getting used to, but that isn't a bad thing. You attack in quick combo like fashion, though enemies will get knocked back, they will remain dedicated to taking a swing at you. You have to get into the mindset of hitting and dashing out of the way of incoming attacks. Which if you keep track of the enemy types, you can usually plan your attacks just fine! Charting my own course is a nice change of pace for the genre! Rather than rely on luck to stumble upon a health room, or a weapon room. I can just plan to go through said rooms. But in doing so, I may be sacrificing another potentially beneficial room for my run. It's a neat concept and my biggest selling point of the game. The dev seems like a super cool dude who would be cool to hang out with at like a BBQ. And as of this writing, V1.1 patch has already come out with player feedback in mind! What a pog champ!

Very fun game. I don't play too many games on Steam because I'm a filthy casual who likes his consoles but games like Mystical Map may change that.

Very fun game. The combat felt a little clunky at first but once I figured it out i found it very addicting and satisfying to master. Plenty of subweapons and items also make each run feel fun and unique. I found myself tempted into "just one more run" whenever I died which is a sign of an excellent roquelike if you ask me and for the price I'd say it was well worth it.
