“This is, in my opinion, the best bullet hell game available on steam. I have yet to try one or buy one that comes even close”
“It feels weird to not recommend this despite my time spent playing it, but in short it's a good game that succumbed to feature creep. The equipment system in particular is the core issue imo; the dev didn't originally…”
“A genuinely baffling amount of unlocks, engaging gameplay and some truly silly levels of powercreep add up to some excellent survivorlike dopamine tickling.”

“What can I say. This game is in the top of the Bullet Heaven genre, up there with Brotato, Magicraft, Ball x Pit, Megabonk, DRG:S and VS. Criminally, criminally underrated. Pure dopamine. Many BH games feel samey after…”
“This might be the only V:S style game that lets you get more OP than V:S, I've had enough damage to basically one shot the end boss before. It's a little bit too easy at first, but there's A LOT of game to get through…”

“It's a very low-tier survivors like hiding behind the cool art style, and it got me. I'm here to spread the word. Also, some feedback. Its not fun when 70% of your level up selection is LITERALLY +1%…”
“This game honestly caught me off guard. I was expecting just another generic survivor-type game. Tried the demo and the visuals pulled me in. Saw it on sale and thought why not — really glad I did. It ended up being the…”
“Honestly, the best survivors like out there, i cant describe how much stuff and variety there is and the visuals, the soundtrack are simply incredible. It is one of the best games i ever played period”

“I got this game yesterday and have played 9 hours. I found two UI bugs. Posted them on the boards. The dev responded in 15 minutes. I'm going to ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ 100% this game just to honor the dev!”
“For the right audience this is a great game. Flashy, and probably one of the best examples of these "vampire survivor" type auto-chess, auto-battlers. Your contributions to the gameplay are limited, you control…”

“Enjoyable relaxing busted build game. Easy to spend a lot of time just being a meat grinder.”
“Good overall, and a lot of content. I don't love everything about it, but it was definitely worth the money.”
“The most expansive survivors-like on the market by an absolute landslide. There is, LITERALLY an infinite amount of replayability. It starts off real easy, it eases you into the gameplay loop and eventually becomes so…”

“This was a hard call for me, but I'm just really not a fan of the balancing. In the very beginning it seemed like there'd be some challenge, but as the game progressed, every run became the same: immediately become…”

“Definitely a fun Vampire Like. Quite Janky in it's presentation and objectives imo but maybe that's just me. Also very poorly optimised (tho with reduced settings it can run on anything not too old). It is however…”

“When I saw Rogue Genesia, I figured it was gonna be another trash Vampire Survivors wannabe. You know the type soulless “bullet hell” grind that’s got all the excitement of watching paint dry. This game goes HARD. Seriously, it’s crack for the ‘survivor’ genre. Totally recommend…”
— a player, Steam review · 78 hrs played“Actually insanely good survivor like. Crazy good dev. I brought up an issue and a fix was pushed an hour later. Fair price. Definitely try it.”
— a player, Steam review · 36 hrs played“It's not the most innovative. It's not the most exhilarating. It does suck you in, and the dev(s) actually give a ♥♥♥♥ about updating and balance. Solid 8.5-9/10 to play when your bigger titles are on downtime.”
