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 – The Sixth Axis

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