What players say
This isn't a fun game, but this is a good game though. I've been stuck on NG+2 for 5 runs consisting of 10hrs of gameplay. If you're looking for a roguelike, maybe rather go look at Brotato or soulstone survivors. Currently this is missing the "Rewrite update" that the creator was going to make, but then cancelled it. And because of that there are some "design flaws" that make the game a lot more dependent on RNG...
SNKRX is a deceptively simple game but very fun in practice, with a strong strategy component. If you like being stuck at your pc for 2 hours staring at colorful dots (I do! apparently) then this is the game for you because you WILL care about those colorful dots and what they do. Keep in mind it's very easy to lose track of time while playing tho <3
It's great overall, nice little short game. Lots of replayability, the amount of strong synergies this game has is quite high despite the overall simplicity, runs still felt pretty varied as I got all the achievements, which entails beating the game with each category maxed out. The item system is pretty great overall and finding good item/unit synergies feels very satisfying (getting all the AoE items is peak)...
