  8.0

  Skipmore’s 1-Bit Rogue is a 100%-free ad-driven game featuring rogue-like turn-based dungeon-exploring action (complete with both perma-death and randomized-layouts), which is furthermore free of any greedy-caveats (unlike games such as Into the Dim).

  7.0

  Still, the presentation is attractive and the game on the whole is competent if not terribly exciting. It's hard to get too thrilled for an average roguelite these days, though, and that's basically all that 1-Bit Rogue is.

  5.0

  Together, the lack of skills, the homogenous classes, and the exclusion of an inventory feel like one giant missed opportunity that could have easily pushed 1-Bit Rogue past mediocrity. Still, despite the minimal amount of player input, it does have its moments of fun. And, if you find yourself enamoured with it despite its problems, there’s a reasonably priced visual upgrade that adds a much-needed splash of color.
