Been playing Cardinal Quest 2. It's such a joy to come back to this game again every few years. Aside from perhaps DoomRL, it's my favorite coffeebreak roguelike.

It's got such excellent graphics and audio compared to the rest of the genre. The environments (many being outdoors) are much more interesting than your typical dungeon. The classes are quite good and even within a class there is plenty of variety with the skills and talents you take.

The achievement system is great for giving you stuff to do and unlock besides just winning. Itemization is on point for a game with runs that last half an hour. Never tedious, usually impactful.

Wow. First search result was for Kongregate. That brought back some memories.

A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.
