This game is everything I wish Dead Cells was - I really wanted to like Dead Cells but it was not for me, way too difficult without any way to mitigate the challenge through progression (well, there was but it was very limited). Plus, the difficulty and learning curve were really steep.

This is not the case with Dragon is Dead. If you are familiar with ARPG games like Diablo or Path of Exile, you can optimize your character to make the game much easier.

Plus, everything about this title is top notch - the vibe is very Berserk-like, dark fantasy with some asian folklore thrown into the mix. Combat feels great, really polished and progression is extremely rewarding and meaningful.

Totally recommended, great game that is much more Roguelite than Roguelike.
