![]() Rogue Legacy 2 is a gorgeous game, and it can’t be disputed that the developers have done a fantastic job in how good it looks. Whatever you decide, there’re so many different spells and talents to choose from when you pick your next heir that I never got bored. While some traits affect the difficulty, this risk and reward mechanic offers yet another layer of challenge to Rogue Legacy 2. One that gave 200% more gold was great, but if I received a single hit, it was game over. One way to counter this is how certain Traits characters have can be more rewarding when it comes to the gold you receive, however, the challenge becomes greater. A safe can be unlocked to keep a portion of your proceeds, but spending wisely and consistently will be more beneficial than giving it to the greedy ferryman. Every time you die, you need to spend the gold or else Charon will ferry you to the castle and keep whatever you don’t use. I will say that there’s quite a steep grind to get a lot of the good stuff, and it might put off some players. Not just the range of enemies and their attack patterns, but environmental challenges and boss fights mean you’ll probably let a few naughty words slip out. Speaking of the difficulty, Rogue Legacy 2 can be pretty tough. ![]() Each class can be improved and levelled up, and when they are further improved by better gear and stats, you’ll start to feel better equipped to deal with the more difficult sections of the game. Experimenting with your favourites and finding the right fit makes up for most of the enjoyment. On top of these, there’re Chefs, Dragon Lancers, Bards, Pirates, and more. Enemies are relentless, and it’ll take time until you start to feel the benefit, but the vast array of classes make Rogue Legacy 2 truly wonderful.īarbarians are powerful dudes with a lot of health Assassins are swift and have a three-part blade attack that does a lot of damage in quick succession Rangers are gifted with a bow and Mages have some fancy spells that can be fired through walls. In the beginning, you’re going to die a lot. Cellar Door Games wants you to succeed, and there’s so much help on offer that exploring and persevering is greatly rewarded. You can buy Runes that provide permanent buffs, take part in challenges to rescue souls for special benefits like improving the quality of gear dropped, and permanently unlock portals thanks to the lovely Maria, the Pizza Girl. Blueprints can be found in chests for better armour and weapons, and by visiting the blacksmith, you’ll be able to buy and upgrade providing you have enough ingots as well. If you’re happy with your recent run, the Architect will lock the world, allowing you to return to it exactly how you left it. When you die, this gold can be used to unlock new classes, improve your health and mana, and open up new buildings at your castle that have some amazing benefits. Throughout each run, you’ll find gold from fallen enemies, chests, or by breaking furniture and objects. Curio’s Shoppe can be found on your travels, letting you switch out your current weapon for something more powerful, or a new talent that provides a unique spell. This could be an increase in a particular stat, or a visible ability such as causing a shockwave upon landing and an electric aura that forms when you’ve struck an enemy. Relics can be found throughout that give you buffs that will stop when you die. There’re tons of variables in Rogue Legacy 2 that give you plenty of options for how you play. ![]() Each challenge has you make use of the new skill, such as being able to dash in the air, and if you reach the end, you’ll be able to use it for the rest of your playthrough. Each Heirloom can be unlocked after finishing a challenging area that teleports you from where you stand. ![]() Rogue Legacy 2 offers Heirlooms which are permanent skills that help you traverse new areas. With many Metroidvanias, a lot of the enjoyment comes from unlocking certain abilities and revisiting areas previously unexplored. It’s a huge improvement on the original, bringing enough new content to keep players engrossed. Whether it’s playing through as a newly unlocked class, spending coin on new gear or upgrades, or just replaying because you like beating the various creatures to death, there’s tons to love. Not only does it have that addictive ‘one more go’ mentality, it’s gameplay is so varied and fluid that travelling through the rich world never gets old. It’s really difficult to put the controller down when playing Rogue Legacy 2. ![]()
