Critic Reviews
Rogue Legacy PlayStation Review
This PlayStation release of Rogue Legacy is undoubtedly the definitive release of the game. It might not get the hype and praise that the 2013 launch did, but those who happened to miss out on Rogue Legacy for PC/Mac should definitely take a look at this early release in Sony's Summer Play Program.

Rogue Legacy is a fantastic platforming adventure. While it's far from perfect, it's brilliance is in the way that it places a new spin on the genre. It masterfully gives players reasons to keep on coming back for more, building their legacy, and ultimately making a run towards the end game.

When it comes to having a player forcibly retry to get better at a game, Rogue Legacy hits the right amount of notes to make for a fulfilling romp despite the obvious repetition at hand. The difficulty may sound like a turnoff, but this is no Simon’s Quest. Once you’re able to understand the advantages of combining certain skills with your suited play style, it can be extremely gratifying to finally conquer that one particular section. All that, and you get to do it again at even higher difficulties with the new game plus modes!
