Great game but…….
Great game but…….
This game is great!
Love it! But…
Awesome
Fummelige Steuerung, verbuggte Quests, überladen
Best in its genre
Wonderful concept, UI is too small
Pass on this game for now, thank me later.
There are a lot of issues in the game that needs to be addressed.
1. Starting skills should just be selectable. It makes no sense why it is random, considering some skills are just straight up worse versions of other skills.
2. Choosing the next stage should also be selectable. I click the map, click off the map, and at the same time it fires the hero at a random direction.
3. “Mid-Game” loop drastically makes the game un-fun. Limiting accessory choices to just three drastically makes the game boring. It already doesn’t have a lot of depth, not a good idea to reduce it even more.
Has potential, don’t buy it now, wait until they add more to it.

Thanks for the feedback! In case it helps you enjoy it any more, here's a couple notes about your points: 1. If you open the "Set Seed" menu and just enter a blank seed, it will randomize the current starting skill. So with a couple clicks you can usually get whichever skill you want. We prefer encouraging people to experiment and improvise, but not so much that we cut off this shortcut. So feel free to use it to get whatever skill you wanted to start with quickly. 2. Sorry to hear its firing you off when you click off the map. That's certainly not the intended experience. Though we like choosing your route using the core game mechanics, as it creates more situational shot strategy to consider... i.e. whether to spend resources clearing an easy path to your preferred exit, or using mana to guarantee you trajectory (with certain skills). 3. We see the Trinket limitation at higher encore ranks helping push players really consider the synergies between trinkets and make hard choices about the optimal build rather than just gather everything up and often lose track of all the stacked bonuses. But we totally understand that's not everyone's preference! Just sharing our thought process. Thanks again for sharing the thoughtful feedback! Glad you enjoyed at least some of the time you put into it, and thanks for playing!
Underrated
play it now and thank me later

Thanks for the thoughtful and helpful review! We really hoped Roundguard could be friendly an introduction to roguelikes for folks who aren't sure about them, so its really gratifying to hear when that works for someone! And hopefully your review helps make other folks aware of the structure so they know what they're getting into as well. Thanks!
