Death by Scrolling Reviews
Death by Scrolling is a top-down roguelite by Ron Gilbert that blends immediate action with permanent progression: each run makes your character a little stronger, pushing you towards that classic "one last game." The gameplay, simple but tactical, offers automatic combat and limited equipment choices, with procedurally generated environments and a constant wall of flames at your back. However, it suffers from a lack of variety, occasionally uncertain level design, and often unfair difficulty. Fun for short sessions, but far from the brilliance of the best casual roguelites.

Putting a very nice twist on the auto-attacking roguelike genre, Death by Scrolling tasks you with outrunning the apocalypse on a vertically-scrolling screen. It's an absolute delight, but with little variety from one run to the next, repetition can quickly set in.
