The funnest part is that the politics haven't exactly been subtle before this. The villain is your greedy landlord and you get help from a communist who runs a mutual aid group. If you haven't checked this game out I can't recommend it enough.
Kind of a 50/50 split between games and theDunkTank but it's past time we got a lbl appreciation post
Yeah I saw the rerolls and removals. Those seem pretty interesting for taking a more adaptive playstyle, it's similar to how other modern roguelikes work where rerolling and removing items are the tools the player is given to control their situation. Hades, Noita, Isaac, and other roguelikes have a similar approach where your knowledge of the game and knowing which items are better and worse than average (or more importantly in which situations they stand out) can inform your decisions which will lead to better play once you're familiar with the game. It's a cool way to do game design.
