If you've ever wondered what a fully fledged sandspiel Roguelike (technically more a roguelite for those of you who mind) hahe a look at a game called Noita on Steam. It is a masterpiece of weaving an incredibly rich game out of the sandspiel apps of yore. I was suprised by how much I enjoyed it, evej if it is a little punishing.

A great game indeed and they really nailed the use of the sandbox idea in a rogue like context! Highly recommended.
I love Noita, though I could only really enjoy it after installing a save mod. I don’t care about the roguelike ethos enough, don’t have the time to get gud enough to make that feel thrilling, and there’s too much wonder in the exploring the game world’s further reaches to miss out on for a casual like myself.
