Game recomendation corner
On this page you will find videogame recommendations from me, one for a month. This will only include games that I played and liked ( or perhaps even loved). This will mostly be text, because I'm too lazy to add a bunch of screenshots each time. If you want to see previous recommendations, see link to archive at the bottom of the page.
July 2024 game is:
The Binding of Isaac: Repentance
TBoI is an action dungeon crawler roguelike set in deteriorating mind of an abused, dying child.
The game's gameplay is based on classic The Legend of Zelda dungeons, with every floor being a dungeon of its own. Unlike classic TloZ though, you normally don't use a sword, or a melee weapon, but your tears, as a ranged weapon.
Another appeal of this game is it's galore of content. Hundreds of items: lots are good and even amazing, some bad; hundreds of enemies and bosses: Most are fun to fight against, others are... Edmund why. Thousands of rooms. 17+ characters with only 2 bad ones (IMHO).
The replayability is a focal point of the game. You're supposed to beat it over and over to unlock everything. As you might guess, this takes... a while.
You might be wondering: "What exactly am I supposed to get?" as there appears to be 2 games and a bunch of DLC's. Well, you get The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth, which is a remake of 2011 Flash game, and you also get all DLC's: Afterbirth, Afterbirth+ and Repentance. I also advise to get Steam version because it has modding, and an amazing modding community that makes new music, graphics, items, enemies, bosses, floors and rooms, and rebalances of existing stuff in game.
Oh yeah, this game is kinda gross. Plenty of body horror, and dump trucks of poop.
