The Captivating Universe of Caves of Qud
There is no shortage of fantastic Steam roguelikes, and Caves of Qud is one of the highest-rated ones for good reason. Since its early access launch in July 2015, it has garnered an "overwhelmingly positive" rating of 95% on Steam. A massive update brings a wealth of new things to do and discover. While it may not have the same level of recognition as Hades, Dead Cells, Spelunky, Dwarf Fortress, or The Binding of Isaac, this is certainly a roguelike not to be missed.
Caves of Qud: Creatures of the Seventh Plague is a massive update for one of the best roguelike games on Steam, described by developer Freehold Games as a "year-long patch" and one of the biggest additions to the game since its launch. Based on a deeply simulated world full of physical and political systems, it is a roguelike with a truly remarkable story, allowing players to assume the role of anything from a gunslinger to a telepath.
