Reviews

Every aspect of Iris and the Giant is honed to perfection and polished to a blinding sheen. It looks great, it plays great, it has all of the amenities I could ask for in a modern roguelike, and on top of it all, it’s got a touching emotional theme that made the journey more than worthwhile by the end.

Aside from some overwrought narrative choices and a feeling of randomization that sometimes cheapens the feeling of expertise, Iris and the Giant is a lovely little roguelike with a great deal of heart and novelty and is well worth checking out for tabletop-based enthusiasts.
