Jimmykiller456 Going Under Review
Mar 28, 2025
"Going Under" is an unexpected gem that completely took me by surprise. Recommended by a sibling, I dove in without any prior research and emerged with a newfound appreciation for dungeon crawlers and roguelike games. The game breathes new life into the genre, offering a fresh, innovative take that kept me captivated.
What sets "Going Under" apart is its exceptional storyline, which masterfully blends humor with a poignant critique of corporate America. Its randomly generated dungeons ensure that each run feels new and challenging, pushing players to their limits while also encouraging them to keep trying. The variety of weapons is a highlight, turning everyday office items into tools of dungeon exploration.
The difficulty is well-balanced; challenging enough to be engaging without being frustrating. The game smartly incorporates power-ups and permanent buffs, allowing for strategic customization of each run. Additionally, the inclusion of NPC co-workers who provide assistance adds a layer of depth and strategy, making each attempt unique.
"Going Under" excels in creating tense, edge-of-your-seat gameplay, where success feels rewarding and each run is a roll of the dice with the RNG gods. Whether purchased at full price or found on sale, this game is a must-own for fans of dungeon crawlers and roguelikes alike. Its unique blend of story, gameplay, and challenge makes it an essential addition to your library.
