51 of 51 · most liked firstReviewer's context: I play way, way too many roguelikes/lites. Got a taste for it with ADOM and Brogue, moved onto BoI, Spelunky, Enter the Gungeon, and many, many more. Most played game by hours is currently Slay the Spire, followed by Binding of Issac and Deep Rock Galactic. At the very baseline, NecroBouncer does what it says on the tin; it is a twin-stick arena fighting game, with passive items, active abilities, and roguelite progression. And if that's enough for you, then this will…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm not a big fan of rogue-like games, but Necrobouncer stole my heart. I can't stop playing, please help!))))
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun little roguelike game. I need more prop artifacts.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Greetings all! NecroBouncer is finally out in full release. I checked out the prologue a month or two ago and was dragged out for a while, now the full game is out and you don't have to worry about having a small chunk of the game. Have a great run everyone!!!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An interesting pixel-style game, I'm enjoying it in every run
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I got a crazy dose of adrenaline going through the boss with 1HP left, I haven't had such fun from the games for a long time!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game seriously rocks. It’s your typical rogue like for the most part. This means going through random floors, receive random relics & special moves and when you die you start a new run but you can make yourself stronger permanently. The way the game combines those elements is what makes it so interesting. The game has different floor types, you gradually unlock more with every run. It’s not just beating enemies but how and when. You can see the entire branching path, so you can plan…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →About 3 hours in and I'm having a good time. Detailed review and thoughts to come.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →"Dude, this party is... really cool!". A Dungeon Roguelike, where you are given the role of a necrobouncer who needs to clean up the nightclub in the most reliable and proven ways, and your dexterity and attentiveness skills will help you do it!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It is a fun if not chaotic game with the first floor being just the right amount of difficult, the second floor is absolute insanity (even with all the stuff that lowers difficulty) and almost all of the difficulty on this floor comes from the special big knights that shoot massive projectiles in 8 directions, and they run away from you so you have to catch them, and the second boss is fairly fine except after you defeat it it goes bullet hell mode for a few seconds, but the sondtrack slaps
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →NecroBouncer was just what I needed this holiday season! It's good-looking, well made, fun and challenging. It has a nice learning curve, doesn't throw too much your way at once, but keeps getting more and more engaging and complex as you play. Wrapping my head around all the potential synergies is just starting to get really fun. This game will challenge even the best action platformers with its movement. Art is beautiful and music gets me hyped and bopping my head every time. Even though it's…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dead or alive? Descend into the dungeon as pixels and destroy other pixels! Sweep and slick, slick and swish. Very fun and exciting.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I would not recommend this, even on sale, unfortunately. Gameplay loop is basic, does not feel rewarding, skills are underwhelming. Progression is .. there, but after a couple of runs I didn't feel like I was progressing. Character felt just as meh as it did on my first run.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Too bad, there's a lot of good stuff here that could make a great game. But the combat feels very annoying and boring, your weapon is weak, there's no variety (at least in the beginning), the enemies are too tanky for no reason, the different rooms types change nothing about the combat, and the upgrades are boring and don't have enough impact.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good game. Very cool animation. The game has a lot of content. The game is very addictive, I recommend this game, you can have a great evening with it! The game is very dynamic and will definitely not let you get bored. Huge hordes of monsters are waiting in the vastness of this wonderful game!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →https://youtu.be/OOwYpTBcAaE pretty cool game

NecroBouncer: ~~~~~~~~~~~ One of your local nightclubs is having serious issues because it keeps attracting the wrong crowd. Let’s face it, the bouncers that the joint owner has been employing have not been up to it. None of them lasted more than a night! I guess they didn’t have the magic touch to keep the place safe and sound. That’s why, when the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →love the game so far. A quite challenging game with some amazing soundtracks and lovely pixel art. Developed by just one guy, so huge respect for that . The game is also replayable and keeps you busy for some time. Price is also more than fair. Excited for the upcoming updates !
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Hello bluesky people! 👋 I am an indie game developer responsible for NecroBouncer (find it on steam) Currently I am working on "Game is Full of Bugs" and will be sharing my progress here :) imgur.com/a/zaoFTwl
unlabelledView post →It's a perfectionistic game. You have to be extremely fast on your reactions, you have to remember where the projectiles are, you have to keep track of EVERYTHING while also trying to remember what enemies do, how they work, where they're casting, what they're casting, where you are, where you're going to dodge, then of course comes the randomness in some of the abilities, and some of the screwing that'll happen just because everything's in the right position, or is literally flooding the…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Reminds me of some rogue-likes. A quality and stylish game. The music isn't quite my thing, but it's pretty good.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Music is pure fire. Gameplay is captivating as hell. So much tension when i'm dodging as fck on my last HP. And i was defenetely not prepared for THIS huge ammount of Relics :3 UPD. Got back to the game affter some time. It noticably got even better. Still a cool "git good" kind of the game. Also IMHO the new Ludeo feature fits this game really well. Smashed my keyboard trying to beat some ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ record and felt myseld 9/10 affter i've beat his pitty numbers! ))
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is the coolest meat grinder I've played. Graphics are fire! I don't regret the money spent at all. I highly recommend it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →All in all, a good fast-paced top-down action roguelike with controls reminiscent of a twin stick shooter. Take on the role of a bouncer necromancer and free the halls of a nightclub from tipsy intruders.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A hidden gem and a must try. My Rating: 9/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Had a game-breaking bug that wouldn't go away for a couple of days, but its gone now and has most likely been fixed. The dev messaged me about it and clearly cares about the game. That alone is enough reason for me to recommend it!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →interesting and cool concept but it really lacks polish and has a long way to go. i'd wait until it is updated more as it has a lot of potential, but at the moment i wouldn't recommend it.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Bought this game on a whim last night from a Steam recommends section...Really enjoying the short time I've put into it. It reminds me of a mix of HADES and CURSE OF THE NECROMANCER, love the gameplay (though the camera shake/bounce is a little offputting sometimes), enjoying the overall look and feel of retro gaming, and fills a need for quick mayhem battling and nostalgia. Recommended!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →so far, I really enjoy the game, it looks addicting and fun
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Extremely dynamic and addictive game, so far now it's my favorite rogue-like .
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →https://youtu.be/FKJOHWRPjT0 While available content do grows with unlocks from each run but the rate is slower than desirable which can cause droughts between meta progression.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun action game that can get quite hard. The bosses are pretty challenging.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A cool game to play through, I would like to play co-op. I really liked the gameplay 10 out of 10! , in general, the game is worth the money.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →many bosses, interesting music and cool graphics
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →✔ decent fun while discovering what the game has to offer (for two half runs in my case) ❔ it's actually a quite a bullet hell, especially during boss fights ❔ eventually you start getting overwhelmed and have to use some semi-broken mechanics to progress without constantly losing hp (instead of normal melee combat) ✘ it gets repetitive quickly, since you only have the auto attack and two active skills (which are costly resource-wise). Passives don't change that much ✘ my character had full…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →When the game clicks its really fun.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Does it do anything new? No Do I giv a ♥♥♥? No rougelite awsomeness: 9/10 soundtrack 9.5/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Boring. Annoying controls.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →fun and simple rogue
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is amazing definitely going to play this a whole lot more!!!!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →basic and boring
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game has some great pieces in it, the passive buffs and debuffs, a FTL-style map path, and it's obviously made by someone who really enjoys the rogue genre... but the game lacks polish and feels unfinished. It feels like the developer really wanted to develop a few key mechanics and for everything else in the game said "meh, that's good enough".
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Today, Ravenage Games and Alchemy Sheep announced that they’re putting NecroBouncer on Switch. #NecroBouncer https://gamesense.co/game/necrobouncer/news/discuss/roguelike-dungeon-crawler-necrobouncer-reaching-switch-in-may/
unlabelledView post →I got a free key from a streamer who was showcasing the Ludeo integration, and the game is actually quite fun, even though the scoring is quite random at times.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Looks fine, feels fine. Will have to spend some more time with it to really form an opinion. It gets boring quick and upgrades or enemies aren't changing much,
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun but pretty challenging, at least for me. Hopefully it will get a bit easier once I unlock more meta stuff. Probably easier for other people as I would put my gaming skills as "below par" but I still have fun.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this is the best game i have never been so captivated by such a masterpiece i cant imagine how boring school would be if i did'int have this game it has a great style good power ups and a difficulty scale i'm glad that this game has gotten this far i just wish it was more out there in the gaming community
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have played 1 run so far of this game, beaten 2 bosses and died on the 3rd floor type. So far I have really enjoyed my small amount of time playing, the game-play is simple for someone like me who isn't necessarily very good at these types of games, but also rather challenging, especially the further along you get level-wise. The boss fights seem fun and intuitive which so far haven't required any frustration but instead I have enjoyed learning the first 2 bosses patterns. Definitely…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →There are a lot of issues I see in this game but I love the gameplay already the devs have a great base all they have to do is make some balance changes like making it so enemies spawned infinetly dont drop money and exp.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun little game
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really love the retro style (it reminds me of Gauntlet from the AMSTRAD) and the sound track in this game. I am playing it for the first time tonight after watching the Developer interview on the Lenovo Legion Channel where I also got the free key from for asking a question that was answered on stream. The difficulty level is nice and balanced so even an old codger (in gaming terms) with slow reactions and failing eyesight like me can have some fun killing and smashing my way through…
