  • Upgrade using Glyphs, wield powerful elemental reactions and craft new, more powerful gear for each run

In terms of the roguelike gaming category, Enter the Gungeon is undeniably one of the most renowned titles (and it’s coming back for mobile play too). It’s not surprising that the rapid-fire shooter gameplay of Gungeon, highlighted by the distinctive dodge roll move, has left a lasting impression on numerous roguelike games, such as Phantom Tower, the latest addition to this genre.

However, don’t assume that Phantom Tower appears unoriginal due to its resemblances. Although it shares many traits with other action roguelikes, it offers unique elements as well. In this game, you take on the role of a typical fantasy hero embarking on a journey to scale the legendary tower in pursuit of riches, reputation, and authority. Your objective is to conquer all 100 floors and uncover the secrets that lie at its summit.

If you appreciate both Vampire Survivors’ gameplay and the skill-management elements of Diablo, Phantom Tower is definitely worth checking out! As you progress through each playthrough, you’ll discover new Blessings for the Tower and materials dropped by defeated monsters, which will empower your character with every try.

Don’t forget your torch and hempen rope

It wouldn’t be hard to look at Phantom Tower and assume this was more of a budget offering. But look a little closer, and you’ll see a roguelike action adventure obviously crafted with plenty of love and attention to detail, as well as plenty of fast-paced, flashy combat for you to enjoy.

For dedicated roguelike enthusiasts seeking fresh excitement, the Elemental Dominion system, where you blend elements that each class can utilize for potent interactions, should prove intriguing. Furthermore, there’s a wealth of discoveries to be made with unlockable Glyph enhancements and crafting opportunities to bolster your character even further.
