Old school action RPG roguelike with manual combat. Powerlust is an old school action RPG roguelike with manual combat and a dark atmosphere. Completely free, no forced ads, no p2w. Micro transactions are just donations with some cool cosmetic rewards like different camera perspectives (top down, TPP, FPP), camera filters, character customization and the bloodbath mode. There are also some quality of life features like a faster character specialization unlock and a shared item stash. Made by one guy. Hobby project made by one guy (me). I spent quite a few years on it already. No huge corporations involved :) No rigid classes. You can create your own class, nothing is locked, feel free to play as a fire mage wielding a two handed sword or a necro archer. Tons of masteries and skills. There is a vast number of options to choose from when it comes to spells, weapons, abilities and masteries. You can create a ton of builds and constantly find new ways of crushing your enemies! Still in development This game is under ACTIVE DEVELOPMENT, I have many updates planned for it. I'd appreciate any feedback, it will be a really huge help in further development.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Powerlust at Free against Space War's $0.99. Powerlust also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 8 months). Space War's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
