    This is a rogue like that is interesting because it gets harder with time and enemies are always spawning around you. There are also several characters to chose from.

    Pros: - Solid gameplay with multiple characters each with special moves (with cooldowns) - Cool upgrade system with shrines and chests and droids available Cons: - I couldn't figure out what icons represented what

    Risk of Rain has a lot of issues that have to do with chaotic graphics and boring action, but the original features save the day. The game is very stressful, but as it is different every time you replay it stays interesting.

    I can't say my feelings towards Risk of Rain ever went beyond mere appreciation, though.

    Risk Of Rain finally gets the console release it deserves, a solid port with improved multiplayer capabilities only improves upon the fun had with the PC version. Must have for those looking for a great couch co-op experience.
