What do you mean by tacked on? If you're talking about the framework, I can't imagine it'd be remotely the same game if it wasn't one; if you're talking about the label itself, making it a roguelike was pretty clearly a driving principle in its design.

During the pre-release and early release of this game, it also felt like nearly every game was touting itself as a roguelike, thus the definition appears to have expanded. To me, it's more like a card game. Because it is.
