Caves of Qud

Live and drink, friend!

[Original Review from Steam] Quetzal, quetzal, quetzal, traveller! Hear me now chanting some of my adventures. I've explored the rainbow road in the middle of the mushrooms forest. That was quite a [TRIP]. I've been infected with fungi so many times that even my tongue fell off. I've been dealing with Snapjaws, Chainsaw Bots, Racist and Xenophobe True Kin, Sludges that spite wine and make you drunk, an Invisible Troll in a pool of covalensce, sleeping bear-cat-like and so many creatures. I've never starved or didn't have a dram of water to quench my thirst but I've faced times of difficult finding these resources. I've actived a strange cube, shooted laser rifles, crafted chem cells, injected salves to regenerate my members, found strange artifects and old technology weapons. Hell, I've even chopped the face of enemies and wear it on my on face. I've been dismembered and ate my own hand to regenerate it. I've drank acid, that was strange, so much wine untill drunk and confused, a mix of cinder and honey that was delicious... And lava. I prefer to not talk about drinking lava but I must say it's... HELLA SPICY. I love Qud with all my heart. Caves of Qud is a fantastic Post-Apoc Mutants Roguelike. It's hard to understand it in the beginning but once you get used to the controls and world itself it turns out to be a remarkable experience. The sound is minimalistic but effective. The tiles are one of my favorite aspect, it's charming, strange yet familiar and has its memorable aesthetic. The mechanics are solid and it can be simple or complex, depending on what you're building with your character. I played countless times as Chimaera and it's my favorite character type. I played a few times with true kin. I must say Tinker builds are very interesting but it starts very, very weak. After 200h playing, now I want to understand and play with Espers, mutants who have psychic mutations and are very powerful yet physically fragile. It's a MUST HAVE for Roguelike Lovers.
