Review

My thoughts on this game have evolved considerably since I first played it. At the time, I considered it another amazing action roguelike in the same league as Spelunky; I now realize I was sort of tricked. It's fun the same way a slot machine is fun. With Spelunky, dying over and over is how you learn to be better at the game; With BoI, you're just kind of doing busywork, unlocking stuff and hoping the RNG gives you a good item combo. All the dead baby jokes and poop stuff wasn't my cup of tea even at the time, and now I find it all so very sad. All the time I put into this game (and the DLC, and the remake) makes me sad.
