I'm more a fan of the card ones then the action ones.

Slay the Spire, Wildfrost and Monster Train are my favorite deckbuilder roguelikes. Hades wins in the action category.

Slay the Spire is among my top 5 games ever, I put like 1300 hours into it. I think it might actually be my most played single player game.

Well, seems they made Risk of Rain Returns...

Seems like they just slapped what should have been free updates to the original Risk of Rain (they never delivered on all their Kickstarter promises then went to make 2), and just slapped a price tag on it and called it remastered.

Stone Soup, Samurai Bringer, and Across the Obelisk (the last one having several that are pretty close to interchangeable in the top slot).

And I wouldn't put Inscryption as a Roguelite. It has the first segment, yeah, but afterwards it's not really the genre at all. For instance, the second part is just the Pokemon TCG game for the GameBoy and neither it nor the third are really built around you ever losing (I would make the argument about that with the first one as well, but the bears kind of exist so yeah).

I'm not super huge on them and mostly get pulled into some by a friend who is. My top 3 in no particular order are Monster Train, Gunfire Reborn, and Risk of Rain 2. Runner up to Hades but that one didn't quite click for me.

Roguelike/Roguelite: Hades or Binding of Isaac
Card: Slay the Spire

I don't know if I've played a straight roguelike for a long amount of time. Even Isaac has perma-unlockable progression, which is what defines like vs. lite.

All top tier games. Pick any one of them and you could lose weeks of your time.

It's official now? Lol, that's pretty goofy.

And even then Kaycee's is fun, but not really anywhere good enough. What made the first segment of Inscryption so good was the natural puzzles in the environment mixed with the story, none of which is present in Kaycee's. So where Inscryption was a highlight for the year it still wouldn't be worth talking about over something like Across the Obelisk or Griftlands, or even lesser card roguelites like Slay the Spire. The gameplay just is nowhere near as good as the dedicated roguelites.

Enter the Gungeon
20XX and 30XX
FTL and Into the Breach
Rogue Legacy 1 and 2
Crypt of the Necrodancer
One Step from Eden

Roguelikes/roguelites
This simple web game from a few years ago. Can't remember the name unfortunately.

Card version
Meteorfall: Journeys. It has the right amount of difficulty, luck and frustration. Slay the Spire looks interesting so probably that too.

Correct.

It has been an effectively complete game for most of that. It's just how Roguelikes work, they are in development until the people making them die (and there is a good chance someone will pick them back up).

Does Darkest Dungeon qualify as a roguelite? It's more akin to XCOM in how you manage your team and their fates.

Many of them are not very well-balanced. They come off as lazy attempts to stretch out a concept instead of simply making a good one and done single player experience.
