I enjoyed it, though for my taste it was maybe a little too simplistic and easy. The original rogue is before my time, but at one point I got very hooked on brogue (https://sites.google.com/site/broguegame/) and this reminded me very much of that.

If a game called 'brogue' doesn't teach you to understand a colloquial Scottish accent and slang, I don't even know what we're doing here.
Brogue also means "to fish for eels by disturbing the waters", and most pools of water in the game are infested with eels.
