AI-powered picks based on gameplay, mechanics & feel

Reverse Crawl

Like Pokémon Mystery Dungeon, you control a team navigating procedurally generated dungeons, but instead of a hero, you're the monsters — and the strategic turn-based combat is just as challenging.

85% Match

Swords & Souls: Neverseen

Train your gladiator in a series of fast-paced mini-games to improve stats, then use them in turn-based combat, offering a similar blend of progression and strategic battles.

75% Match

Balatro

While not an adventure, Balatro's deck-building roguelike gameplay offers a similar strategic depth and challenging puzzle-solving as you build poker hands to earn chips and overcome enemy blinds.
