Reviews

“For those who value a challenge, and maybe want something that feels akin to The Binding of Isaac but without the intensely creepy narrative, Beyond the Long Night is a charming roguelike with plenty of play time on offer, and lots of fun to be had.”
8/10 –

“A fun gaming experience packed with so many things to do. The demo felt complete, and I expect great things for the full release.”
88/100 –

“Not every game is fantastic. Some ain’t even good. But every so often I find an absolute gem and that is exactly what Beyond the Long Night is. A pure diamond of a game.”
