A Rogue-like with old school Japanese style
A Rogue-like with old school Japanese style. Despite its cheap price there's a lot of replay value with its unlockable classes and "Dimension" (randomly generated worlds from their online server) select which you choose before setting off on your adventure. Gather equipment, healing items, upgrade items and even party members to become strong enough to defeat the Demon Lord. Time is limited however, the screen will continuously scroll to the right and if you are caught in this "Darkness" you will die. This is not an open world RPG where you can take things slowly and explore, your destination is eastward and the game will happily remind you of that. At the end of the Dimension (win or lose) you are graded and given Hero Points. Points can be spent to unlock additional classes or skills, called Perks, but also to expand your Vault. Your Vault allows you to transfer over items you have collected to a bank so that any new characters you make will have access to these items before beginning their level. The game also comes with achievements and cards. For the asking price I couldn't recommend it enough!

Easy recommendation
One of the more overlooked games on Steam (probably because it was made in Wolf RPG Editor), this game was actually made by the creator of Wolf RPG Editor. In this game, you have to battle against the screen scrolling basically. If you get scrolled off the screen, you die. There are lots of interesting RPG elements at play here, such as different classes, leveling, skills, weapons, partners, and more. You can also save some items from your failed runs to use for the next run. The game is procedurally generated, and you can play worlds other people played by entering their world's seed. The game will also show you who was/is online on the same map you are. There are daily maps to explore and this game has a ton of depth you might not expect just looking at it. The expanded version is out on Playism and coming to Steam in the near future, but this version is well worth playing on its own.

A quiet favourite
I had already logged in about 70 hours before the Steam release, so let me say that, for a price this small, this is definitely a game worth checking out. The game's big gimmick is that the world's slowly getting gobbled up from the left side, which means you gotta keep on going to the right, which adds an element of urgency since you gotta plan your moves ahead of time or you're getting screwed over. And with eight different classes to choose from, each actually requiring you to play differently (like, you wouldn't head in solo with a bard or keep your backside exposed with a hero) and a whole bunch of perks to apply and combine in whoknowshowmany ways, in addition with too many possible worlds to traverse and daily campaigns AND a bit of writing here and there that, while often rather generic, still has a couple bits that might make you go "oh, I didn't expect that" the first time you encounter them, you'll more likely than not spend a lot of time on this, provided you're into games experimenting with the roguelike concept. Presentation wise, it's a bit eh, though that's more of a personal issue. The music got annoying very quickly, so I turned it off. And the character portraits look rather amateurish and sketchy, but you don't see them too much, so they're easy to skim over. Still, if you got the cash to spare, give it a shot.
