Moonlighter 2 is an isometric action RPG that mixes shopkeeper simulation with roguelike combat. You like as a merchant by day, adventurer by night. Similar to the first game, you must open up a new shop, set items to your preferred prices, and start selling to the townsfolk.

After closing up shop, you enter the Endless Vault, a mysterious artifact that makes you overcome a myriad of challenges. Sell the items that you collect while adventuring in your shop, which can lead you to upgrade your shop to earn more money.

Entropy Early Access Impressions

If you mix dark fantasy, a post-apocalyptic setting, and a dread-adjacent atmosphere into a game, you’re most likely to pique my interest. The Early Access version of Entropy did it for me, for sure. Personally, I’ve never been a huge fan of tactical, turn-based role-playing games, but it only took me a couple of fights to understand I was into something special. Not perfect by any means, of course, but special regardless.

Quick Review: Twisted Tower

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before; a guy’s significant other is randomly kidnapped by a maniacal villain and he sets out to rescue her. It’s a heavily familiar setup, albeit one with a couple of highly familiar twists to bolster it. Twisted Tower’s art direction is overly reminiscent of Bioshock too, but strong level design alongside an above-board presentation and entertaining gameplay make it worth playing despite the cliches.
