A roguelike city builder almost seems like a genre that shouldn’t exist. If you know that the city is finite, that you’re just going to start over from barren earth before long, what’s even the point? Against the Storm is a unique roguelike city build that works against all odds. Where most city builders are about the long game, everything in Against the Storm feels immediate. It’s the roguelike structure that keeps the game from following into some of the genre’s biggest pitfalls as well.
