The gorilla is your tank class and obliterates anything in site. That said, if you’re playing co-op with someone relatively good, you can experiment with a weaker character who has some potentially devastating traits. Some classes are ridiculously better than their counterparts that when you have rotated through them all, you’re likely to go for a select few only. It’s rare to play a game with so many classes to choose from, and they’re all quirky enough for you to try out each character as you unlock them. Some of these include being able to hit an NPC through a wall, having a scary face so enemies don’t attack, or just being quick at whatever you do.

Examples are killing rival gang members, eating a particular NPC or destroying a series of generators.Īs mentioned, these are optional, and it is up to you if you want to do them, but if you choose to do so, you can improve your XP to level up and then get more perks. Each character also has a ‘big skill’, and this is an optional side quest for the class you choose. Sometimes this is to neutralize a target, escort someone to an exit or to hack a safe and retrieve the contents. For each area, you have your main missions. It’s a little like Gauntlet, though each map size changes considerably, so no two consecutive levels look the same. In the future time in which this game takes place, the communities build on top of each other, starting with the slums, industrial district, then a few others until you reach the top, Uptown.
In fear of not doing it any justice, the characters and projectiles in the game look good, and it’s just right for the speed and the type of game. Though don’t expect amazing graphics as this is a stripped-down pixel art game. The game design is a dungeon crawler with elements of Deus Ex. There are 24 character classes you can choose from, and each one has their perk or trait to apply. Go in gung-ho, sneak around stealth-like or encourage others to do your dirty work for you.
But, your play style changes it up big time. Yes, the game is straightforward, and the procedurally generated levels are very much the same. There is a plethora of options and approaches to each level. Unlike some of the game’s peers, Streets of Rogue isn’t as frustrating as you would expect. With “rogue” in the title, one would assume that this is a rogue-lite game and yes, it is. Streets of Rogue doesn’t take itself seriously in the slightest, but the humour doesn’t abuse that. A tutorial follows that helps you come to grips with the controls and the game’s many features – all told with funny dialogue. They’re quite blase about everything anyway but decide to let you into their world. Your character decides that he wants in on The Resistance. As missions progress, you receive these glorious nuggets as a reward. As you would expect, the citizens won’t take this and decide to keep the contraband in circulation. However, the most ludicrous of all is an outright ban on chicken nuggets. I’ll cut to the chase: The mayor has done a lot of wrongs and imposed some ridiculous rules on his townsfolk. The newly elected mayor in this game is a bit of a rogue himself. Developed by Matt Dabrowski – a dream venture (he quit his 9-5 to make this, so the achievement in getting it finished is fantastic in itself) and published by quality publisher tinyBuild, we have ourselves a potentially great game. If you’re not interested in a permadeath game, still give this a try as it is a lot of fun. Streets of Rogue is another pixel art rogue-lite game available on a wealth of platforms, and if you have a palate for these type of games, you won’t be disappointed.
