Roguelite Potato Action-Adventure: Brotato: Premium Review
Brotato: Premium is a paid action game developed by Erabit Studios, offering a mobile adaptation of the 2D top-down shooter for PC. Featuring a unique art style and gameplay premise, players embody a potato brother stranded behind enemy lines, navigating a hostile environment while awaiting support. With a plethora of possible builds, each playthrough presents a distinct experience, enticing players to experiment with various combinations. The gameplay mechanics resemble titles like Vampire Survivors and Survivor.io, focusing on controlling the titular potato and engaging in manual firing.
The intriguing premise of Brotato: Premium unfolds as a lone survivor from the planet Tubercula, landing in an alien environment with the ability to wield up to six weapons. Players guide this potato-like character through customizable character archetypes, reminiscent of The Binding of Isaac's visual design. Unlike traditional roguelites, Brotato: Premium features structured gameplay where waves target the character within set time limits, requiring strategic enemy engagement and survival tactics to progress. Despite the abundance of weapons and items for diverse builds, the lack of weapon carryover between runs poses a challenge in sustaining late-game engagement.
