As someone who's worked in IT for the past 15 years, I've been saying FOR the past 15 years that a dungeon crawl or tower climb game set in a corporate office using improvised weapons like office supplies and computer hardware would be amazing. Turns out I was right!
Going Under is an excellent roguelike dungeon crawler with a satirical corporate hustle motif, and it really nails what makes randomized dungeon crawlers such a fun and immensely replayable genre to begin with. It's good for beginners and pros alike in the sense that it's not TOO difficult but not too EASY either, and offers plenty of room for different builds and playstyles, especially the longer you keep playing it. The game takes note of which power-ups and skills you take most often, allowing you to influence each dungeon run to a small degree instead of relying on pure luck. And mentors will keep giving you unique side quests to further encourage experimentation, allowing you to tweak and develop your own sense of style along the way. Completing all of those quests earn rewards and upgrades that are well worth the extra gameplay hours in my opinion!
To add to that, the game is simply oozing with charm. The writing is snarky and self-aware without coming off as mean-spirited, and the characters all feel like real corporate office workers I've known and been over the years. There's not a bad character in the whole bunch, and every single one of them gave me at least one laugh out loud moment in their extensive dialogues. The dungeons are also extremely well themed, combining classic dungeon archetypes with various LinkedIn tropes. You'll find yourself fighting against gig economy Goblins, Skeletons working the crypto mines, and a dating app run by Demons where you can only communicate via suggestive emojis. It's an absolute delight through and through.
Truly amazing game, definitely pick this up if it looks even remotely interesting to you!

Going Under is a parody of modern society and capitalism. The setting, characters and jokes are funny, but in a quite depressing way. The game is a roguelike, but unlike other games in the genre, you don't have to die a million times to understand the game, which is nice. However, I did find it very challenging at some points. What atracted me to this game was the artstyle, as you may have noticed Going Under uses the style known as corporate Memphis, which is used by every corporation on Earth to sell an image of inclusion and friendliness in a very soulless way. On the other hand, this game feels very soul-full, so I'm very happy to have played it and I recommend it to anyone feeling down about the inevitable collapse of modern society.
