Our take on Concurrency
The game’s compact 2-hour core gives up long-term campaign scale, while its genre-shifting structure may trade sustained depth in one format for variety across eight formats.
What is Concurrency?
Concurrency is a roguelike built around repeat runs through randomly generated halls that return to a shop.
Players fight procedurally generated enemies, buy upgrades, and choose difficulty through branching routes. The game presents a short adventure with a stated length of 2 hours, while also including dozens of handcrafted levels to unlock. Its structure extends beyond the opening roguelike format: the vendor describes eight distinct genres to uncover and master. The game also uses a deliberately misleading presentation, insisting that there are no secrets or unusual discoveries while directing players to continue along the route. Repeated deaths are part of the stated progression, with changing level layouts across runs.
