    Realm of Ink is a game of possibilities. It feels deliberately designed to make players sink dozens of hours into exploring every build and satisfying that gamer hunger for big numbers. And it works. Every session feels unique, and the rewards for getting the builds right is immense. Now, if only the developers add more bosses and randomize their rotations, it could make the experience even better.

    Realm of Ink sets itself apart with a gorgeous art style that makes every run through its isometric hack-and-slash roguelite world a feast for the eyes.

    Realm of Ink, from developer Leap Studio, is a deeply entertaining action roguelike that excels through its visuals, stacked buff system, and variety of customizable elements.

    If Hades is your favorite game, you should also give its blood- and ink-splattered competitor a try. Realm of Ink offers great combat, a rich selection of professions, and interesting skill-switching mechanics.

    Realm of Ink took a minute to grow on me, but grow on me it did. The game needs to work on its localization, and I still have mixed feelings about the game’s difficulty, but all in all, it seems to be in a fairly promising state, and I’m eager to see what the game is like after it leaves Early Access.
