Our take on 1 Trait Escape
The premise gives the game a comic sci-fi setup, but the main activity is repeated combat and building strength across runs. The store text also puts a clear emphasis on high difficulty, so the humor and minigames do not suggest a relaxed action game.
What is 1 Trait Escape?
This action roguelite follows Stoney and Trait after they mistakenly board a rocket, crash on a colonized Mars, and find a medieval version of London.
Play as both characters while fighting Martian enemies and bosses, with minigames between battles. Each run adds power, so repeated attempts move the pair closer to escaping to Earth. The setting centers on a trillionaire antagonist who wants to establish feudal rule on another planet. The game is described as very hard and includes flashing lights that may affect people with photosensitive conditions.
