COGconnectedNicholas PlouffeApr 201685/100Honestly, I went into Leap of Fate with low expectations of just another twin-stick shooter and was very impressed overall.

GamingTrendVictor GrunnApr 201680/100Leap of Fate mixes dynamic, level-based action with a unique cyberpunk/Shadowrun-esque setting, resulting in a solid title that stands out in both gameplay and environment. It’s a fun, well-balanced game limited largely by a lack of variety in enemies and challenge types – which most players will be guaranteed to notice, because it’s still entertaining enough to play again and again.

The EscapistJoshua VanderwallMar 20164/5 starsLeap of Fate offers a challenging rogue-lite experience without making it unapproachable to less serious gamers. The combination of unique characters, randomized skill trees, and an abundance of interesting Glyph effects makes every run feel like a different game.
