Patch Quest

PC (Microsoft Windows) • 2023

Should you play it?

In a labyrinth surrounded by vicious monsters, Explorers must rely on their Lasso to survive! Capture and tame ANY monster to leap, glide, surf, tunnel and websling through a treacherous, patchwork maze. This roguelike/metroidvania seems cute, but it’s a deceptively difficult bullet-hell challenge!

What works

  • Addictive gameplay loop
  • Unique monster riding and capturing mechanics
  • Large, varied map with exploration
  • Strong meta progression and upgrades
  • Polished presentation and art style

Things to keep in mind

  • Runs can become repetitive over time
  • Limited endgame content and variety
  • Some difficulty spikes and balance issues
  • Lack of online multiplayer beyond remote play
  • Minor ui and quality of life improvements needed
