You might play a soldier who kicks in doors guns blazing, an assassin who backstabs, or a thief that steals. How they relate to you is dependent on who you are and how you play.

Each level is brimming with the lives of NPCs and businesses. You explore randomly generated districts on a quest to overthrow the mayor. Yet by some form of incompressible voodoo, they do. Streets of Rogue backs these claims up in style, by pretty much being a true combination of Deus Ex, meets old school Grand Theft Auto with the DNA of several other games mixed in that should absolutely not work together.

On the cover, Streets of Rogue claims to be a hybrid of genres, mashing together sneaky stealth, shooter action, and old school brawling wrapped up in a rogue-lite package. Purchasing Streets of Rogue from this Creator Store link directly supports Gideon’s Gaming. Joseph Pugh conducted this review on a Standard Xbox One console. Oh, and guns too.Streets of Rogue is available on Steam, Playstation 4, Xbox One including game pass, and Nintendo Switch. Play the game YOUR way! Don’t want to kill anybody? That’s cool! Want to hack computers? Got ya covered! Random world generation and TOTALLY EXTREME gameplay variety means you can play for 600 hours and not get bored! Seriously though, go outside!!! Super-advanced artificial intelligence that won’t put up with your crap! Outsmart these virtual humans and feel superior to your computer!Stupidly huge variety of items! Shrink rays, hypnotizing devices, boomboxes, bear traps, food processors. In order to progress, the player will need to accomplish specific mission goals in any way they see fit through use of their special character traits, items, and the environment. Rather than taking place in a dungeon, the game is set in a functioning, procedurally generated city, where complex AI informs denizens from all walks of life, who are just trying to get by in their daily activities. The game takes inspiration from fast-paced top-down rogue-lites like Binding of Isaac and Nuclear Throne, and adds free-form, experimentation-driven, emergent gameplay elements of RPGs like Deus Ex. Streets of Rogue is a rogue-lite about player choice, freedom, and anarchic fun.
