Good FPS that creates a good balance between action and combat simulation.
Well maintained game with regular and free updates.

If you're looking at this game and its reviews, you probably have certain curiosity and interest in the "old style" or "true" Roguelike games. You might've tried some but have been put off by their sheer complexity and extremely steep learning curve, so you've come looking for something a bit less complex, something that offers a good entry to the genre.

So the question is whether this game can be considered as such?
In my personal opinion, yes it can.
It combines many elements from roguelikes (such as random generation, permanent death, statistical minmaxing, variety)
and elements from modern (RPG) games (such as UI&actionbar, character&story progression)

For a new player the system will feel familiar and accessible enough to not put off by it while still offering deeply strategic and intricate systems for more advanced players.

As you might've already read from other reviews, you can get the almost full version from te4.org for free.
