    Giving Hades a run for its money, Reignbreaker is a stylish, high-octane hack-and-slash roguelike that sees you moving through a Medieval-punk world. With satisfying combat and excellent storytelling, it's a great deal of fun to play — and it's an absolute bargain to buy.

    Reignbreaker is a great rogue-like set in a dystopian punk world that feels more forgiving than titles like Hades.

    A Hades clone with a lot of spunk and gritty action to satisfy the cravings of anarchy!

    Reignbreaker from developer Studio Fizbin and publisher Thunderful Publishing is a solid rogue-lite experience that brings a good story, wonderful gameplay progression, and motivating rewards to the table. While it stumbles with common enemy and level design, it has far more positives than negatives with what it delivers in its gameplay.

    Wonderfully smooth and frantic combat is the glue that holds Reignbreaker together. It's got a great aesthetic, if a little samey at times, but works hard to keeps things fresh, even if the progression is strangely gated.

    Reignbreaker is a solid action roguelite that will feel familiar to fans of Hades. Its fast-paced combat is enjoyable, and the variety of power-ups encourages experimentation with different builds. While the art direction is creative, other aspects of the game adhere closely to genre conventions, rarely breaking away from its inspirations. Though undeniably well-crafted, it may struggle to distinguish itself in an increasingly crowded genre.

    Reignbreaker is a decent isometric roguelike, but doesn't do enough to stand out in a genre that's getting more and more crowded.
