I hate the word 'roguelike.' Judging by the recent adoption of new phrases like 'YOLO' and 'procedural death labyrinth,' it seems I'm not alone in this (though it's not exactly like that last one rolls off the tongue, either). Regardless of how I feel about the terms we use to describe it though, I very much like what the genre represents: the challenge of outdoing your own personal best.Dungeon of the Endless is very much a roguelike at its heart - you'll face procedurally generated stages, plenty of treasure discovery, and permanent death - but it manages to bring something new to the genre that gives it a truly unique appeal: controlling multiple characters at once.Rather than controlling a single hero in a "fight or die" scenario, players start with two characters to swap between and will uncover more as they proceed deeper and deeper into the game. With different skillsets and upgrades, players will balance their time between both, employing tactics that will make or break them.But we're getting ahead of ourselves - I haven't even told you what Dungeon of the Endless is about!
