    I'm not sure what the official reviews are talking about - there are absolutely zero rougue-like elements in this game. You don't level up or keep upgrades, you only unlock cosmetics and starting points. The procedurally generated maps can sometimes literally be impossible when you get to peaks (because it prevents you from going around unmakable jumps).

    Overall its fun and I got it on

    Overall its fun and I got it on Xbox Games pass for PC, but I wouldn't spend a cent over 10 dollars for the game. It's a lot like Steep - it's fun to play for about an hour and then you realize how shallow it is.

    A decent bike alternative to Steep or SSX with randomly generated levels and challenges.

    Descenders is a great surprise. As we see too many dark Rogue-Like games in an heroic-fantasy style, Ragesquid offers a dramatically different approach with a biking game that will remind us of the best moments of the PS2 era and its extreme sports games, offering something modern and adapted at the same time. This game is hard, punishing even the slightest mistakes and making you sweat. On the other hand, you will get a welcome sense of achievement by succeeding. Descenders is an interesting piece for Rogue-Like and biking amateurs, with nice graphics and a killer soundtrack.

    Descenders is an arcade extreme downhill freeriding, a real tribute to the '90s.
