Rogue Legacy 2 is a game that understands it's own...legacy.

The first game was an early success in the rogue-lite genre, and the sequel builds on that. But it also understands the legacies of the games that succeeded since then. Games like Hades and Dead Cells pushed the genre forward, and their influence can be felt here, in a very good way.

If you liked the original, you'll like this. It's similar, but with an added layer of thoughtful polish on just about every aspect. More build variety, more customization, more diverse biomes, more attention to detail in the graphics and animation, more wacky traits--it's got everything the first game had, but better.
