There’s something inherently claustrophobic about being on the subway. It’s all a bit drab, and there’s hardly enough space to admire the tilework, especially when it’s overrun with alien invaders who are actively trying to kill you.

I haven’t become this obsessed with a roguelike since Balatro. Yes, Ball x Pit sits in esteemed company and, no, I’m not touching Slay the Spire 2 until its full release.
