Is Tetraphobia worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Action roguelite players who want procedurally generated runs through changing realms
- Bow-combat fans who prefer switching between close-range and charged long-range attacks
- Players who enjoy collecting artefacts and altering runs through modifiers and secrets
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players looking for a fixed sequence of levels may find the procedurally generated runs a poor match.
- Players who prefer combat without repeated dodging, shooting and fighting bosses may find the run structure repetitive.
- Players seeking a primarily narrative adventure may find the emphasis on combat and loot does not fit.
- Players looking for cooperative play may not find the solo-focused description a match.
Our take on Tetraphobia
Rather than keeping dungeon-crawling action underground, Tetraphobia shifts its runs to floating islands. Its bow also changes between two forms, while rescued characters and artefact trades can alter later choices within a run.
What is Tetraphobia?
Tetraphobia is an action roguelite in which Trixx, a treasure-hunting rogue, fights through procedurally generated floating islands.
The bow switches between a shortbow for close-range attacks and a longbow that fires armour-piercing charged shots. Runs take Trixx through different realms containing distinct enemies, bosses and artefacts, with four Titans guarding realms. Artefacts, modifiers and secrets can change a run’s options, and an airship island lets players trade artefacts that do not suit the current build. Rescuing people affected by their fears unlocks access to advanced artefacts and modifiers, as well as challenges and quests with rewards. Cat treats can increase the chance of finding extra loot from Trixx’s cat companion, Reno.
