    What should have been a glorious marriage of Binary Domain and Smash TV in Ares Omega ends up as something far lesser on account of its many flaws. While a serviceable roguelike shooter ticks away at its heart, there simply isn’t enough here to recommend Ares Omega to anybody with a hankering for a well-crafted, progression focused blaster.

    Ares Omega provides a challenge, but it lacks anything outside of its vanilla campaign and repetitive combat.

    Ares Omega might interest some players with the pursuit of reaching the final floor, and like many rogue-lite games, it can be difficult and you will die a lot, but the more you play, the more it becomes a tedious, frustrating experience, which lessens any encouragement to go back.

    While I like the roguelike progression, the rest of the game feels like an prototype, lacking any sort of redeeming presentation, polish or any score tracking to keep you coming back.
