If you’re anything like me, you appreciate the roguelike genre. While there are many, many examples of it, one thing they all have in common is the capacity for constant diversity and startling variety. They also tend to skew to the tough side, and that is certainly the case with the latest offering, Necropolis.

Published by Bandai Namco and developed by Harebrained Schemes, it places players in a vast necropolis swarming with vicious monsters, traps and tricks to keep players on their toes. Your goal is to make your way to the bottom of the pit and find the source of all the threats within. Though the game is slated to come out to PS4 and XBox One, today is officially out on Steam. While the price point of $29.99 might seem a bit high, after playing it last year at PAX, I can attest to the quality of the game.
