One Step From Eden takes my memories of the Battle Network games and turns them into a fully-fledged and incredibly stylish roguelike. It is quite simply the best thing I’ve played all year. It might even be one of the best roguelikes around at the moment, and there’s definitely a lot of competition there. I can’t say enough good things about this nigh-perfect game, but I can say that you should stop whatever you’re doing and go and buy it. You’ll not be disappointed.

One Step From Eden manages to combine the strategic satisfaction of deckbuilding with the chaotic fever pitch of an action game and wraps it into a snug package of player choice. It might feature all the randomness that the genre is known for, but it puts the ball squarely in the player’s court about what to do with it, and that’s pretty magical. My Perspective On One Step From Eden When it comes to games like One Step From Eden, I generally prefer them to be turn-based.

Long story short, if you were a fan of Mega Man Battle Network, this is probably the closest you’ll get to a new game. One Step From Eden takes everything that said game and Slay The Spire did well while cranking it up to 100. It’s a blast of a game that satisfies every video game craving I’ve had the past few years, all in one package. Plus, with everyone stuck inside, it’s the perfect time to get mad at a game that’s tough as nails.

The game succeeds despite its fierce challenge because each system is incredibly well-designed and compliments the mechanical learning curve quite readily, even if that curve’s breadth can feel demoralizing in its darkest hours. Fans of Mega Man Battle Network as well as the original Xbox’s Phantom Dust will be thrilled by this intricate game, one which is informed and educated by those unique titles, while newcomers will discover an engrossing roguelike, so long as they are willing to weather the coming challenge.
