Crypt of the Necrodancer may not be for everyone, but if the idea of a steamy love-in between two seemingly incompatible genres turns you on, you’re gonna love it.

It’s a unique, fun, and wildly imaginative take on the roguelike formula that stands out, despite being in the company of other A-class titles within the genre.

Crypt of the Necrodancer nails everything that it sets out to do. Every moment of Necrodancer is fun and engaging, the music is some of the best original music in any rhythm game, and the entire experience feels very original. The varying levels of difficulty, in addition to the speedrun clock, daily challenge dungeons and leaderboards give this game a surprising amount of depth and longevity.

Crypt of the Necrodancer is an awesome rhythm game you don’t want to pass up if you’re into the genre. It solidly blends dungeon crawling with moving in time to the rhythm and the soundtrack is great.

For those looking for the next gaming obsession after the likes of Spelunky, Binding of Isaac, or Rogue Legacy, look no further than Crypt of the NecroDancer.
