Overlooting

[h3]Pretty neat addition to the June 2026 Humble Choice bundle.[/h3] Starts out pretty simple and straightforward for a dungeon crawler with inventory management mechanics. However, the longer you play the more you realize just how much your experience can vary from facerolling everything to getting absolutely destroyed by the first boss. At times it can be a little rough getting the set(s) going given the RNG but it can also help you learn to play different styles based on the best you can do with the sets you can actually find. While it definitely gets repetitive after a couple hours, that typically won't stop you from wanting to do "one more run" to try and create Build X that's even better than what you won with before. On the other hand, it can be a little demoralizing once you've played enough to know before you even hit the first boss that the build isn't going to make it that far into the corruption.

Soft no from me. The discovery phase of playing this game where I was unlocking new skills and equipment was quite fun, and there's a lot of combos that are satisfying to watch when you first hit them, but once everything's unlocked (~9 hour mark for me) I felt like I saw everything the game had to offer... but all the achievements weren't completed yet. Getting from that point to 100% achievements was very much a grind rather than a challenge, where the game turned into mostly an idler and all the engagement for a run was playing to the first skill selection, looking at the available skills, and resetting if they didn't match the starting items I got. I think the main feature that reduces the variance in runs, where all the characters get some innate ability to make locking in a build easier, is a double edged sword. On one hand, it made the game really easy to pick up and get into it, but on the other it cut the joy of discovery off just as quickly as it hooked me, limiting its replayability. I want to say I'd like to revisit this game if it gets more content but I don't think that'll be the case if I'll just be forcing the new items in a few resets and watching the game play itself again.
