    Overall I’m actually very impressed with Tallowmere and would recommend it strongly to any roguelike fans out there looking for a great way to spend some time on something a bit light but still challenging. In many regards, though the style of play is very different, it reminds me of Quest of Dungeons, a sort of gem of a title hidden in an unassuming package. If you like to constantly feel like you’re on top only to have the rug pulled out from under you, Tallowmere delivers a high-quality challenge at a budget price.

    Tallowmere is a solid budget roguelike that offers approachable yet deep combat and a fantastic amount of replayability, at the cost of becoming stale with time due to repetition. Although that core gameplay is rather fun, the visuals and soundtrack are offputting, and fail to adequately present the much better underlying game mechanics. We’d mostly recommend Tallowmere to fans of the roguelike genre, or for those looking for a pretty good game at a low price. There are definitely some blemishes and shortcomings that prevent the experience from being anything memorable, but you’ll probably find enough entertainment here to justify the purchase.

    Tallowmere can be fun, challenging, addictive, silly, irritating, and boring at the same time, but, thankfully, it's neither a bad, nor a mediocre game amongst rogue-likes. Just don't go in expecting one of the best either.

    Although not original when it comes to the use the rogue-like template, Tallowmere could have taken form as an enjoyable 2D platform game if it wasn’t for its messy layout choices and poor art style.

    This game is a masterpiece for roguelikes lovers! The engine is really clean and fair with your movements and your enemies'. Good FX onThis game is a masterpiece for roguelikes lovers! The engine is really clean and fair with your movements and your enemies'. Good FX on elements and flawless fps. The mechanic could seem simple and repetitive, but once you move on and dig a bit into the procedural scenarios and and take a look to the system created for progressing, then you will do nothing but love it. It has a bit from dead cells, a bit from rogue legacy and a bit from souls series. What else can we ask for? Highly recommended!!… Expand

    Despite its unappealing audio-visuals, this game is very fun to play. If you like the roguelike games, this one is for you: greatDespite its unappealing audio-visuals, this game is very fun to play. If you like the roguelike games, this one is for you: great replayability, just to get a room later... tons of weapons and armors, impeccable procedural generation of the dungeons.
    Maybe, the game could became monotonous, till to boring for the "non-addicted"ones to the genre.
    Overall score: 9 for the roguelike lovers; 7 for the others.    … Expand
