    It's a testament to how compelling Loop Hero's core gameplay "loop" is that you never feel punished by putting in the extra time as long as you're in the right headspace. [Issue #57 – January/February 2022, p. 17]

    Loop Hero looks simple, but as you play more, more enjoy this great RPG. This is one of the best video games of the year, and is perfect to play with portable mode's Nintendo Switch. [Recommended]

    Great indie game with a catchy gameplay loop. I'd love to see this on iPad so I can play while watching netflix on the couch.
