Hades, The Binding of Isaac, Monster Train – the conflict between Heaven and Hell is a recurring theme through many of the best roguelikes. So it is in Lost in Prayer, a new traditional roguelike game from Nine Dots Studio that has you flipping between the divine dimensions, where each enemy that kills you becomes a new playable character. Ahead of launch, PCGamesN speaks to Nine Dots CEO Guillame Boucher-Vidal about making the more classic roguelike format approachable and making players feel like a genius.

It offers a fresh take on the roguelike genre by allowing players to control the enemies that defeat them, adding a new level of strategy. I’m excited to see how players will adapt their tactics and playstyles with different characters and abilities. The replayability factor is also intriguing, as it could lead to a more dynamic experience each time. I can’t wait to see how players tackle the divine dimensions and master the game mechanics!
