About

Each run will have you parting from a black and white graveyard into an ever-changing gothic dungeon full of nightmares fleshed out of human viscera. Surviving this distraught roguelike will not only require skill but style, since Nongunz rewards you for long-lasting combos and challenges... moreover, score will play a key role in the progress of the idle game: the formation of your very own band of lost souls and death cultists. As the world of Nongunz evolves, meet special characters that will inhabit your graveyard: praying cultists, self-scourging martyrs, somber gravediggers... which will either help widen your killing skills or improve the performance of the insidious idle game built around the graveyard.

Nongunz: Doppelganger Edition is one of those games where you feel yourself getting better the more you play, and I usually enjoy games that give me that experience. Once you get an understanding of the gameplay it’s a very rewarding and fun game although getting to that point can be a bit unconventional. Discovering everything on your own can be a fun endeavour but I also understand why some players might abandon the game because of its obtuse nature.

Nongunz: Doppelganger Edition is no different. Even if some of its experimentation does not land quite right, it does enough to not only justify its existence but to provide an entertaining time as well.

A savage monochromatic roguelike shooter with a difficulty curve reminiscent of a vertical straight line, Nongunz: Doppelganger Edition is tough to love early on. Over time though, the smart risk vs reward system rises to the surface and the slick gunplay becomes challenging rather than simply impossible.

The repetitive environments rule out enticing any fans who are not a fan of the roguelike genre. Personally, I found it frustrating to play, but also rewarding when you finally make it through any given area, which is always the pay-off. There’s a whole lot of trial and error which can become very frustrating very quickly.

Tras su paso por PC, los usuarios de consolas también pueden degustar un roguelike muy especial y difícil de roer que además posee alguna que otra innovación bastante llamativa en relación al título primigenio.

Nongunz: Doppelganger Edition è un gioco per molti versi estraniante, sicuramente non adatto a tutti i palati, anzi rivolto espressamente a quei giocatori che cerchino qualcosa di diverso, non tanto nelle meccaniche quanto negli obiettivi e nelle modalità di scoperta degli elementi di un'avventura. Gli elementi roguelike sono francamente un po' troppo estremi anche per giocatori navigati ma siamo coscienti che molti di voi potrebbero apprezzarlo o addirittura amarlo alla follia.
