Enter the Gungeon
A bullet-hell roguelike crammed with hundreds of guns, endless dodge-rolls, and more puns than any game has a right to.
Category Roguelikes
The best indie roguelikes and roguelites.
Balatro
Poker, but a roguelike — the 2024 phenomenon that hijacked millions of evenings with the simplest "just one more hand" loop ever made.
Inscryption
A deck-building card game that keeps tearing off its own mask — start as a horror, end somewhere you’ll never see coming. One of the most surprising games in years.
Vampire Survivors
You barely even attack — you just move, dodge, and watch thousands of monsters explode. The minimalist phenomenon that launched a whole genre.
Cult of the Lamb
Build a murderous cult by day, clear roguelike dungeons by night — an adorable, sinister mashup that became an instant phenomenon.
Into the Breach
Tiny, perfect turn-based tactics from the makers of FTL — defend the last cities of Earth from giant bugs, two minutes of agonizing decisions at a time.
Slay the Spire
The deckbuilding roguelike that spawned an entire genre — climb the spire, build a deck on the fly, die, and immediately need to play again.
Hades
The roguelike that finally made the genre’s endless deaths feel like the best part of the story — and the highest-rated game on this whole list.
Dead Cells
A roguevania that fuses Metroid exploration with souls-like combat into a frantic, addictive loop you’ll be chasing for a hundred runs.
Children of Morta
A roguelite about a family of guardians — where the real story is the people you fight to protect, not the dungeons you clear.
