The Story Goes On

All-in-all The Story Goes On is a solid game. What it does, it does well. The visuals are pleasing and varying enough not to get boring. Boss fights require strategy and perma-death means that you take caution whilst battling through the dungeons.

The Story Goes On is a simple hack & slash adventure game with a top-down view. You need progress through randomised levels, fight bosses and collect as many buffs as possible. The game is repetitive and offers just around 15 minutes of fun and unique gameplay, later succeeded by boring and tedious do-overs.

Seeing past that though, and it is most certainly an addictive little well paced game – but only really for those who wish to go cheevo hunting in the process.

The Story Goes On is one of the most interesting roguelikes that I've played in a while due to its incredibly clever secrets and satisfying gameplay.
