Review: City Of Brass - An Action-Packed Roguelike That's Worth Its Weight In Gold

A diamond in the rough.

City of Brass is all about greed. Naturally, you love pilfering shiny and sparkling trinkets, but just how close will you tread into the unknown to sate your desire for wealth? Will your avarice help break an age-old curse and claim limitless riches, or condemn you to an eternity of torment? It's an intriguing premise, and one that fits the oft-used roguelike template like a freshly-stolen glove. City of Brass takes that tantalising prospect, wraps into a mythical Arabian shell and leaves it for the taking on Nintendo Switch.

The titular city is a nightmarish metropolis filled with treasure, traps and monsters in equal measure. With only a Castlevania-style whip and a bladed weapon to your name (and an unhealthy thirst for silverware), this first-person roguelike sets you a simple task: reach the centre of the city. Any riches you find on the way are yours... if you can survive long enough to spend them.
