Oct 9, 2017Rogue Islands, even though it looks disarmingly simple at first sight, is a challenging and immensely enjoyable game for those who love to play challenging titles. It’s a simple take on the survival genre mixed with gung-ho FPS action makes it a really unique and memorable experience. I'm a relative newcomer to the rogue-like genre, yet I adored Rogue Islands, poised as it is perfectly between enjoyable and challenging.

Nov 12, 2017While it may look something like Minecraft, Rogue Islands is definitely its own, very enjoyable beast. [Issue#267, p.56]

Aug 28, 2017You can’t overlook the fact that Rogue Islands is currently lacking in content, but it’s to be expected whilst still in its early access stages. If the development teams behind this whimsical creation can continue on the path they’ve set out on, I’m convinced this game will achieve great things. With the recent addition of Keystone Games’ development team, the future of Rogue Islands looks set to be a bright one. Heck, I’d even go as far as saying we may be in for a rare treat; an enjoyable, Roguelite FPS.

Sep 18, 2017I also just really like being in the worlds. The Florid Vale is this pastoral idyll (plus killer skeletons and demon skulls), but it’s chill, it’s pretty and you get large land masses to navigate meaning less danger from the gnome-eating fish which live in the water. Later in the game you get desert worlds with sheer drops and mangroves with twisted roots that are easy to fall off and thus strafing is no longer your best friend.
