Didn't play a ton of this past finishing a run but I thought it was pretty fun with some unique build mechanics.

I thought after 50 hours I had played this game more than enough, that I had clearly overplayed it to the point of sillyness, and then yet for some reason I still went ahead and played it for like another 50 hours after that and now even beyond that I've still kept going and probably won't stop at this point.
So I guess Flamebreak one of those highly honoured games in my roster now, one where I don't really have anything more to learn or discover, but I still just boot it up anyway: like any old classic, knocking out a few hours for a bit of relaxation every so often is great, even if I never play it for many hours on end like I did when I first bought it. As with any game that has managed to make its way into my long-term roster in life of things I just periodically pick up fro a bit of fun, this game comes highly recommended from me.
It's a room-style rinse and repeat roguelite in the spirit of Gungeon or Isaac, with a StS style overworld exploration between the encounters + creeping shadow that strictly limits time. It's a very tight experience: all game play, no faff, and no confusion about where to go or what to do next. It's very stripped down but in a good way actually. There are some lore tidbits to enjoy if you like but they're skippable and I wasn't interested. The game play stands on its own just fine so the fact I never really had any interest in the lore was not a problem for me.

Flamebreak is a simple but well done game with a good challenge ahead and an achievements list 99% made to challenge you more than to assess your progress. It is not a rogue like though your death has zero effect on your character other than having to restart from zero. It is not an easy game but not too hard either. I play this only a few minutes here and there though, I'd be really surprised if I end up having clocked a hundred hours on this but it can go that far.
On discount nowadays you can get it under 3 euros so yea it is an easy recommendation if you like small but well done and challenging game. If feels like a flash or phone game though.
