Awesome rogue-like FPS where you play as a wizard. Everything is random generated so prepare for surprise combat battle royal. Many different types of weapons, enemies and traps. You will encounter many type of rooms some of them will have monsters, secret power ups and challenges. On each run you power up your character selecting one of random skills as you level up you gain more useful abilities. Gameplay is fluid and visuals holds good. Soundtrack is more on ambient side but it sets the atmosphere just right.
Over 10 years still playing to this day...

It's fun! Graphics are pretty good for how old it is. Lots of enemies with different kinds of attacks. I like it

Simple and to the point, exactly what I wanted. No unnecessary bs, just moving around running or bunny hopping and shooting. Know your enemies, know their attack patterns, know your weapons, prioritize accordingly. Starts with 2 characters, but there are many more to unlock. Every one of them coming with unique features. Same goes for "game modes" and yes one of them is "Endless" mode! A lot of weapons, items and amulets to unlock. "Hard" difficulty is not unlocked by default, you have to beat the game on "normal" with the character you want to play "hard" with. Oh yeah and this game is challenging! So far I have only finished one "hard" run. What a satisfying feeling. If you are like me and are into simple yet fun and challenging shooters, I recommend it even for full price. If you are not, wait for a sale. Highly recommended!

A very good FPS roguelite. The controls are pretty straightforward, and smooth. There are multiple classes to unlock, and like most of these kind of games, it can get pretty hard at times. As a fan of fantasy games, and a MASSIVE rogue lover, this game ticks a lot of boxes for me. Definitely worth playing, 100% recommend.

challenging, but very fun. i wasn't sure if i'd like ziggurat since i'm not usually into these sort of games revolving around magic, but ziggurat literally just feels like a boomer shooter game with magic instead of bullets.
awesome stuff, highly recommend.

I didn't believe in love at first sight until I found this game. The moment I've seen someone giving it away for free I knew it'd be a banger for me. But even with that I was positively surprised. They could include a bitcoin miner, ransomware file decryptor and gangsta rap budget musical intro in it and I wouldn't care too much.
The combo of oldschool jumpy FPS + roguelike is already good enough, wish there were more good games like this. But it's also smooth/optimized, diverse, with lots of various room/weapon/enemy types and even has random LORE.
The only downside I found so far is that some of the settings are not saving. And the music is very loud - I lowered it to 10% and it's still somehow loud, have to go lower.

Hidden gem, but snag this off of a sale. Old game but plays like a modern fps/rpg game and has elements akin to binding of isaac due to the incremental upgrades you get when you level up. Very fun, if I get bored I'll play it. 9/10.
