The Leetdom reading room
Idle RPGs, MMOs, browser games and mobile RPGs, taken apart properly. Every review carries a score out of 10, what the game does well, what it does badly, and the kind of player it is actually for.
A Uruguayan studio's first major project turned a portal sponsorship deal into the Flash browser era's most influential tower defense game — one that outlived the plugin it was built in by porting itself, tower by tower, onto seven other platforms while the original still runs today under emulation.

A ninja falls, slides and wall-jumps through a wireframe apartment building full of homicidal robots, in the 2004 freeware download that taught a generation of Flash developers what momentum-based platforming could feel like — years before N+ or N++ existed.

Edmund McMillen and Florian Himsl's 2011 Flash roguelike sold itself for $4.99 on Steam rather than living free on a portal, and turned a three-month game jam project into the game most credited with dragging the roguelike out of niche obscurity — years before Flash's own limitations forced McMillen to rebuild it from scratch as Rebirth.

Two and a half years after the meme that ate January 2024, Palworld's 1.0 finishes the job — a survival sandbox whose real subject is labour, with 72 more Pals, a level-80 ceiling and two new regions bolted onto the top of it.
8.5 / 10
Obsidian's satirical space RPG grows a genuinely excellent build system and a slow-motion gunfight worth building around, then hands the writing and the companions less attention than either deserved.
