Heia all! Do you have some recommendations on any strategy roguelites where you get bonuses that you keep between games?
My favorite one, even though it is a bit different of course, is Against The Storm, a roguelike city builder that essentially removes all the later stages and makes you re-live the first 20-60 minutes of a fresh - and highly randomized - map again and again.
To me it removes all the tedium I always get from city builders. It’s tense, and somewhat depressing in its setting, but also very pretty and super fun.
I spent 80 hours with it in the beginning of the year and it’s really a blast!
Im sold! Wishlisted ☺️
More recommendations! I also really Like it. IT us somewhat similiar to early settlers or Anno Games, from Feeling of designing your First supply chains and discovering the land
- Slay the Spire
- FTL
- Into The Breach
- Bloons TD6
- Wildermyth
- Renowned Explorers: International Society (personally I feel this one doesn’t get enough praise. It’s super underrated)
Similar but not exactly roguelike since they have an overarching campaign for metaprogression rather than completely independent “runs”:
- Darkest Dungeon
- XCOM
- Most XCOM-like games eg Xenonauts, Battletech, Mechanicus
Man I love Wildermyth. It’s really cute!
FTL and Into the Breach
Og, I loved FTL! Need more games like this ☺️
I don’t want to toot my own horn too much here, but I’m developing a card game that is much more roguelite than rougelike, with strong meta-progression. It’s all free and open source and playable at superspruce.org.
If you like strong meta-progression, you might also like incremental games, such as Cookie Clicker, Antimatter Dimensions, and Realm Grinder. These games are satisfying due to the pure progression you experience within them.
I gotta admit, Im done with incremental games, it doesnt give me anything anymore. But I will take a look at ur game, thanks! ☺️
Let me know how it could improve! I’m always looking to try to make it better.
FTL and Into the Breach. Mostly between games it’s unlockables, but still super fun.
If you like dungeoncrawling and math (and wizards), Noita is an absolute banger.

Yeah, Noita is already on my wishlist, but it isn’t really a strategy game ☺️
The Last Spell if you like grid based combat.
I sure do
I should probably try to look it up, but I have been confused for a little while now.
What exactly do people mean by rogue like games? I feel like I can figure out roguelite based off the initial definition, but feel to explain that one to me also.
Well, I mean games where I get progression between games. Like, if I play a round and lose, I will get something that I can use the next time. Or if I win
