Rogue Rollout First Look

It has been a while since I made a First Look Let’s Play for YouTube. The return video is for Rogue Rollout, a delightful roguelike deckbuilder where you play yahtzee with modifiers. It works surprisingly well.

From the Developers: “Roll dice, score points, and pick artifacts to enhance your gameplay as you aim to reach the highest round possible. Each round requires you to score a set number of points to advance, with the difficulty ramping up as you progress. Failure to meet the required points results in a game over, sending you back to the start for another try.

Thank you to Keymailer and Peepod Inc for providing me a key to play Rogue Rollout.

Costa Verde Transport Department | Let’s Play

I returned to making Let’s Play videos this week. Thank you to the developer and Keymailer for providing a code for Costa Verde Transport Department. I hope you enjoy me fumbling through a few rounds of the game, which I enjoyed quite a bit. The puzzle aspect is right up my alley. And please subscribe over on YouTube if you haven’t done so yet.

Game Summary

A new city is emerging on the vibrant shores of Costa Verde, but the citizens need help: someone must build the roads for them! Luckily, they have you: the head of the city’s Transport Department. The growing city expands in all directions. People drive from home to work and back, industrial trucks transport resources between manufacturers, and you have to plan the road network for the city carefully!

The main gameplay consists of planning & building a road network for the growing city. You have to carefully plan the roads to balance the city traffic and obtain valuable resources that help you progress. Sooner or later, your roads won’t be enough: you’ll have to build detours, roundabouts, bridges, and use some magic!
