Comment on Any Roguelike/Roguelite suggestions?

I’ve played several Shiren games (1 on DS, 3 on Wii, 5 and 6 on Switch) and I recommend Shiren 6 (Mystery Dungeons of Serpentcoil Island).

5 kinda went too far from its roguelike roots and feels too grindy, with too many ways to escape safely, especially easy ways to undo your death indefinitely.

6 is a lot more fun to me and makes good runs and crazy builds more special again.

For a very good introduction to the series, if you can play it, the port of Shiren 1 on DS is very good and already has a lot of what makes those games great. There is also a rom hack translation for the original on Super Famicom (that one only existed in Japanese), but I’ve not played that one much.
