Oct 22, 2025Action roguelikes are a tough genre to screw up, yet Towa and the Guardians of the Sacred Tree manages to do that. From lacklustre in-run upgrades, to permanent progression that is boring, to perhaps the biggest problem of how utterly dry combat is, it drops the ball in many locations. The better parts, such as the banter and voice acting, are not enough to carry the woefully lacking core gameplay.

Oct 7, 2025Overall, there’s a bit too much holding Towa back from a recommendation. There are better Hades-likes out there, most notably Hades II: Melinoe Goes West. If you’re a dyed-in-the-wool roguelite fan, Towa and the Guardians of the Sacred Tree will definitely fill your cup, but I think it’s too easy to walk away from.

Sep 24, 2025Towa and the Guardians of the Sacred Tree was a game that surprised me. It offers some nice new features for players who enjoy roguelites and complain about how similar every game they play is. It's one of the best games, especially on the Nintendo Switch 2. However, while playing, you'll constantly encounter things that make you wonder, "What if it were like this?" The game has the potential to improve with updates and improvements after its release. However, its biggest problem right now is that it's released in the same month as Hollow Knight: Silksong and Hades 2. With so many compelling games out there, I think there are plenty of players who can easily switch to Towa's underdeveloped system.
