Ziggurat

Very addictive as you gain new weapons and better skills.

Great game to play on days you just want a quick game with some meat on it.

I've played it for 5 hours so far (over several days). Ziggurat is perfect for a quick blast for those occasions when you've not got the time to commit to a more complex game. It's a Fast paced single player with movement and dynamics similar to the original Quake, or OG Doom with a 3D mod. Nice crisp graphics, striking the right balance between colourful and gloomy. Atmospheric sound effects, and balanced difficulty (maybe a little to easy for the hardcore gamers- I no longer coumt among their number!). Theire's characters and weapons to unlock to give it depth and Online leaderboards, daily challenges and Acheivements make nice addition. And finally, you can dip in for a couple of levels then save and quit (as long as you're not in a room with enemies), to pick up where you left off next time you boot the game up. Anyone who liked the feel of the FPS games of the late 90's will like this

Reminds me of playing the original Doom or Wolfenstein3D games back in the day. Great fun!

This game does not have a ton of depth, but I really enjoyed playing it. Each time you start a game you pick a base character, then tackle the 5 randomly generated floors of the Ziggurat! All combat is arena style with heavy circle-strafing strategies. But the game does throw in some random scenarios and variables to spice things up. Learning the enemy types, upgrades, and weapons/spells was the main fun for me. You want to build up a well rounded character as you progress. But sometimes the randomness of the Ziggurat seems unfair (looking at you Shrines...). It took me 30 attempts to complete the game, each attempt being around 20 to 60 minutes. Also I got the game on sale, so my expectations were not that high. I had a lot of fun with this game over 1-2 weeks of playing nearly daily.
