ppl seems to love that game. I bought it, played for some 30 minutes and never came back to it. But then again, I might be a minority here.

I think it's a great game, but you've got to know for yourself if you like that kind of sidecrolling roguelite Jump&run genre. I saw you didn't play Spelunky very long, so this game might share the same fate in your case.

Spelunky is way better.

Spelunky sucks because of the ghost which appears if you don't finish level fast enough. That hinders the exploration.

In Rogue Legacy you can just take your time, explore entire level and enjoy the game.

I was only once killed by the ghost and this was when I tried what happens when you touch it. To my mind it's a nice way to build a bit of pressure on the player, but it's not really an issue as you can move incredibly fast if you know what you're doing. But to each his own.

Yup, I also think that Spelunky is better, but when I checked his profile he played Spelunky for only something like 30min, so I doubt he is going to enjoy Rogue Legacy, hence I wouldn't recommend it to him

If you get several health upgrades before getting anything else, it becomes so much better when you can survive hits.

This. I made my save really hard because I bought all kinds of upgrades that weren't health, armour, or attack. The classes and their abilities are cool and all but beef your character out first for sure.

Armor is worthless until NG+. I just saved you lots of time.

Absolutely love it. It has insane replayability, I don't agree with stacking health so much. For me it was about getting the right runes and gear. Once I had lifesteal, doublejump and dash it was GG.

I've seen my little brother play it and it looks fun.

It is quite a steal of a deal right now (75%). I'm thinking of purchasing it as well. I'm trying to justify myself whether or not to get it now, or wait and see if it gets discounted anymore (80%-85%) when the Christmas sale happens. The sale for Rogue Legacy will be on for another 3 more days so there's plenty on time to mull it over.

Don't do it. Not worth. Trust me when I say it is not as fun as people make it sound. It's more of a sigh.. wasted money, let me tell others its great so they blow money too.

You should buy a keyboard with a question mark on it. Clearly yours doesn't come with one.

IF you enjoy roguelikes, and IF you don't have trouble trying and dying several times to achieve a goal, then absolutely go ahead. It's a fun roguelike, among the best I've played.

I found it really fun, but my passion died out with NG+. Worth the money IF on sale. I suggest you wait for Winter Sale.
