About

Take all of the combat of an Action-RPG and cram it into a non-stop action game with RPG character progression, add a bit of satire, and just one life to make it to the end, and that’s Pylon: Rogue.

Pylon: Rogue excels because it knows what it is; a rogue-like RPG about skill, precision, and stacking a crazy number of skills. Its presentation is nice if a bit simple and some enemies sadly tend to blend into the environment due to lighting which can lead to unfortunate hits, but it’s still a solid experience.

Pylon Rogue attempts to combine several good ideas in a way that just doesn’t quite succeed on the level they hoped. There’s a lot of potential, and there is some positive user feedback on its Steam page so there is an audience here, but I think most would agree a simplified Diabloesque game combining pick up and play accessibility and unforgiving roguelike difficulty doesn’t succeed in either regard.

All in all, Pylon: Rogue has proven to be a very challenging hack and slash that will require quick adaptation, decisive accuracy, and a great patience with frequent death. The game is graphically pleasant and fun to play and even throws in a range of different tactics and mechanics. If you like hardcore challenges, this is definitely a game to try out.
