    Scoring any lower would be a bit far for what the game offers and does. It’s like baked beans on toasts: nice and filling, but you wouldn’t call it a proper meal. If you’re into your Rogue type games, looking for something short, snappy and quick. This is a game for you. Personally, this just isn’t my cup of tea with what it does.

It's a mix between shoot'em up and roguelike, with cool retro visuals, great chip tunes and a truly well balanced difficulty. You'll learn from enemies...and from your errors. It's simply a pleasure to play: MONOLITH for sure deserves more attention from both the players and the critics. A must-buy for action lovers. Full Review »

    Simply the best and most overall balanced roguelike I've ever played. Boss battles and soundtrack are my favorite parts.
