New roguelike turns the dullest bit of RPGs into its greatest strength

From The Elder Scrolls Skyrim to Diablo 4 and Baldur's Gate 3, inventory management is typically one of the most time consuming and frustrating parts of many games. While the likes of Resident Evil 4 and its briefcase Tetris have found innovative ways to toy with the system, the next evolution looks to be coming up with smart ways to make sorting your loot both essential and enjoyable. Following the breakout success of Steam multiplayer game Backpack Battles comes Megaloot, a new roguelike game where meticulous loot management is very much the key to success.
