The D20 Beat: Loop Hero has cast a calm, strategic spell over me

Some games are hard to describe in an email. When Devolver Digital‘s reps pitched Loop Hero to me, I didn’t get it. I read the email over a few times, and I didn’t get it. I watched the video a couple of times, and I still didn’t get it.

Then I played it last Friday night. And twice last Saturday. And twice last Sunday. And every night since. And now, nearly 16 hours later, I get it. Loop Hero is like a good coffee blend: It highlights the flavors of each bean (or in this case, genre).
