DCSS has such incredible depth, these types of games reward you if you can dedicate the time to them.
It's not a pure roguelike but I've found Nuclear Throne to be fantastic. Nice blend of old school arcade controls and brutal rougelike roots.
- WalterSear 10y agoI've been trying to get into that, but I'm just not finding it to have the depth of Binding of Isaac. Then again, what does, in twitch-rogues? Maybe I just need to make it past the first sewer level before I give up.
- zubat 10y agoCatacomb Kids might suit you. It has a lot of depth of interaction.
- WalterSear 10y agoThanks! I hadn't seen that one yet.

- PhasmaFelis 10y agoI haven't played it yet (waiting for the full release), but this video about the many, many uses for a small rock sold me on backing Catacomb Kids: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N59tLIvQeJE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N59tLIvQeJE
- vvanders 10y agoA lot of the meta around NT has to do with knowing what weapons work well across stages of the game and are complementary, then balancing ammo requirements with the need to dish out spike damage. If you haven't made it past the sewer that you've probably seen < 15% of the game. I've particularly found melee weapons(wrench) particularly good at dealing with the sewers.
- PhasmaFelis 10y agoHave you played Spelunky, the very first roguelikelike? It can be surprisingly deep.
