ScourgeBringer

ScourgeBringer is truly excellent, with quick as lightning gameplay and charming graphics. I have had quite a bit of fun piecing together the lore and gathering new skills. The only problems I have have to do with the judge blood and chiming tree. The first problem is instant gift. It gives me way way mor than 10 percent of the total spent blood, which is fun, but I got all the upgrades a little too easily for my liking. It might also be better if it doubled the amount of judge blood you had obtained in a run. The other problem is the branches. I have come to believe that in other versions branches three and above are locked behind certain judges, similar to the final branch. It is not so for me. All in all these aren’t big problems and you can certainly just choose not to take instant gift and to wait to unlock certain branches.

Probably one of the best rogue likes on iOS. Difficult but engaging, has one of the most satisfying combat system. That being said there is a bug that have ruined my runs on multiple occasions. When I click save and exit, the game will automatically reduce me to one hp, which is basically a suicide since hp is extremely rare in the game. Please fix this bug asap. I have literally got the the fifth judge once with full health but when I click save and exit it instead took all of my health. I didn’t survive the fight and it is extremely unfair. I am aware that if you save and exit during a room the game will take a point of hp from you but I always save after I have cleared the room, so this really shouldn’t be happening. Other than that, highly recommend the game.

I’ve played ScourgeBringer on Steam and GamePass for a combined total of 100 hours since I had to restart when I moved game clients. Now typically, having to restart a game is an immediate dealbreaker for me. ScourgeBringer is different. The game ramps up significantly as you move through your first few hours of upgrades but even before your first visit to the upgrade tree, the gameplay play is fast frantic and absolutely enthralling. I will admit I am biased as I absolutely love the action roguelite genre, however, if you are a fan of action games in the slightest then do yourself a favor and buy a copy. This game is a bargain at its typically $15-$20 price point on PC or console, so for six bucks it’s an absolute steal. I would love it if this game finally got the recognition it deserves on the App Store. I have yet to try it with touch controls but it plays phenomenally and butter smooth with my Kishi controller. Easy 5/5. Will buy it a fourth time with no regrets if the opportunity arises.
