Neon Abyss Reviews
Neon Abyss is an enjoyable Rougelike game that due to its gorgeous graphic and enjoyable gameplay can easily entertain you for hours. Although levels layout will become repetitive and there are some other issues in the game, still, Neon Abyss is a very well made game in this genre which fans of Rougelike games should definitely play.

Neon Abyss could've been one of our favourite games of the year if not for its repetitiveness and the lack of variety, it's still an enjoyable roguelike characterized by its fast-pace and chaotic nature.

Lack of meaningful innovations makes Neon Abyss "just another roguelike," but if you like this genre, you'll enjoy this one too.

Neon Abyss is a dungeon based game with gun elements offering intense action with great pixel art style and a good soundtrack that is a boost to the whole interaction. Providing a defined lockdown system and good characters, this game is dedicated to hardcore fan players who is searching for repetition and absence of elements like story or deep characters. Delivering a well-defined style, Neon Abyss will be a great title for strategic players, but it can push back some other public who is not adapted with the genre making the game a boring experience.

Neon Abyss is among those games that have great ideas and the developers have succeeded in implementing them. But that are holding the game back to become one of the best Rouge-like games. knowing Team 17, I am sure that they are going to address these issues in the future updates and the value of the game in going to be higher than what it is now. But still the game could bring an enjoying experience to those familiar with the genre.

Those who love The Binding of Isaac and Enter the Gungeon will find an awful lot to like here. The gameplay is fast and fluid, the presentation striking, and there is a huge amount to keep coming back for. There are tons of things to unlock that change up subsequent runs, unique seeds to master the most enjoyable versions of levels, and even an insanely challenging difficulty mode to unlock. The biggest issue is the small amount of rooms to pull from when generating a stage. It's not too noticeable for a few play-throughs, but for the players who will run this over and over, it really detracts from the experience.
Neon Abyss offers a good alternative for those who likes the genre with a well told new-age gods theme and plenty of equipment, but it won't be able to find itself a spot amongst the best.

Neon Abyss is colourful, bright and a lot of fun. While I found a lot of the room layouts and levels a tad repetitive, there is enough there to keep you entertained. The mini-games and weapons are great. It looks good, sounds awesome and will find a home in any rogue-like fans gaming collection.
Neon Abyss is occasionally great. It's let down by repetition, uneven difficulty, and the occasional game-breaking bug.
Neon Abyss is a highly playable action-roguelike with a huge number of perks and weapons to take on the ever-growing horde of monsters that show up in each room.

Neon Abyss provides incredibly rewarding gunplay and a plethora of upgrades that can quickly turn each run into a chaotic display of bullets and explosions. It unfortunately isn't as creative or cohesive as some other roguelikes, with a story that sits firmly on the sidelines, but if you value gameplay over narrative you're bound to have a good time blasting through the abyss.
Borrowing from greats like Binding of Isaac and Dead Cells, Neon Abyss throws every type of weird ability and gun imaginable at players, making for a roguelike not lacking in substance but strangely missing a touch of style.
Neon Abyss is a game that offers a lot, but we have the feeling it's going to be a bit of an also-ran in the roguelite genre. If so, that's a shame, because it's an enormous amount of fun, with a good challenge, lovely controls and plenty of scope for craziness: which is all a roguelite really needs to be compelling. As long as you don't expect to be blown away, we can give Neon Abyss a strong recommendation. It's up there with the best roguelites on the Switch: it's just a shame it wasn't there first.
Neon Abyss is one of the best roguelite action games to come along in recent memory. Given how many great roguelites we've seen the past few years, that's definitely a tall order. But thanks to its smooth gameplay and compelling upgrade systems, there's no denying just how entertaining and exhilarating Neon Abyss is.
Neon Abyss has perfected the Binding of Isaac formula, but its lack of creative energy and problems with similar locales drag it down considerably.
A deliriously entertaining mish-mash of roguelike platform shooter, mini-games and Pokemon style mechanics, if Neon Abyss feels like Roguelike Shooter 2.0 - that's because it is.
Neon Abyss' emphasis on thriving, not surviving is a breath of fresh air in a subgenre defined by struggle. It's chaotic, cathartic gameplay is a welcome surprise and unique take on the formula.
