Question Ranking
Pros
Pro Offers an impressive amount of variety in items and monsters, which keeps the experience fresh
Over 300 items and 130 monsters, WazHack offers a lot of variety that will take a lot of play throughs to experience.
Pro Unique twist on roguelike gameplay where the game takes a side-scrolling approach
A 3D rendered side-scrolling roguelike, makes for some very unique mechanics, thanks to not being top down like many traditional roguelikes. While it will still have the player progress in randomly generated dungeons, exploring for new items and gear, the battle mechanics will be more akin to side scrolling platforming.
Pro Surprising depth
Many approaches and strategies are viable in a simple shell.
Pro Controller support
Pro Learn spells
There are magic scrolls that work once and rarer scrolls that let you learn the spell for the rest of the run.
Pro Can play for free
You can buy the premium currency, but you get enough of it through normal play that it's not required.
Pro Four character classes
One of them is a rogue, but you have to unlock it.
Pro Permanent upgrades
Each time you die or defeat a boss (every five floors) you get permanent upgrades, in the form of Runes (which you can swap out to customize your class at the start of each game) or Recipes (which you can use to craft items from materials found in-game).
Cons
Con Costs money to get the full experience
The game asks to spend money on each character type separately to go deeper than 300 feet; cost about $1 each.
Con Some quirks with control scheme and interface
Some specific action in the game are hard to pull off with touch screen, causing the player to move when trying to open menus.
Con Somewhat crude art-style
Graphics are reminiscent of freeware games from the early 2000's.
Con Has ads
You can skip them with the premium currency. But the ads are always triggered by user action, so they don't randomly interrupt your games. This means they're also technically optional, but they give you bonuses you'll probably want.
Con Mediocre translation
While the basic spelling and grammar seem correct, the writing could really be better. It's often not clear what things do, even when they're documented.
