I'm so glad I gave this game another try. I hated it at first because I didn't "get" it. Much like prey it starts off very overwhelming and directionless which is uncommon for modern games, but it starts to make sense within an hour or two if you stick with it and learn the game mechanics. This game is not a roguelike, it is a metroidvania with the map being divided into both 4 different sections, and 4 different times of day. Each run unlocks new pieces of that map until you have full access to kill all 7 visionaries in one day. It can get a little bit repetitive, but the art direction, gameplay and graphics are absolutely stellar and the power progression is very meaningful. By the end I was running extra loops just for fun because i was a literal teleporting demi-god sacrificing everyone in the map within minutes. 9/10
