"I'm playing BRUT@L, a roguelike role-playing game by Stormcloud Games and Rising Star Games. Taking its inspiration from old-school ASCII-based dungeon crawlers, BRUT@L features both single-player and cooperative modes of play in its procedurally generated dungeons (rooms are scripted but arranged randomly) with permedeath. A dungeon editor is also included for more customized death traps. The interface is designed for a gamepad (consoles are clearly the priority here), which makes navigating the game more limited than necessary on the PC. The protagonist can be moved around each level, melee attack, use weapons (once crafted), block attacks, and execute a special move. Lots of items can be picked up and used to regain health, craft potions, or enchant items. Experience gained from smashing things is used to unlock new skills. Enemies are varied and offer different challenges. BRUT@L is a fairly standard roguelike differentiated by its theme, cooperative features, and map editing capabilities."
