Auch in diesem Puzzle-Rollenspiel im Papp-Design scheint es nicht an Edmund McMillens bizarrem morbiden Humor zu mangeln. Die Steam-Beschreibung umreißt den Ablauf des “Puzzle Based Deck Building Rogue-like” folgendermaßen:
When Bum-bo’s only coin is stolen by a mysterious entity and pulled down into the sewer, Bum-bo finds himself facing droves of deranged enemies, lost children, his fears, and eventually the beast that stole his beloved coin.
Gameplay
The Legend of Bum-bo is a puzzle-based “deckbuilding roguelike” by Edmund McMillen (The Binding of Isaac, Super Meat Boy) and James Interactive, where players collect hordes of items that can be modified, upgraded and comboed with others in many interesting ways. Play as one of many Bum-bo, each with its own unique abilities, as they smash, bash and splash their way through a variety of cardboard monstrosities, giant bosses and dark personal urges…
Oh, it is also the prequel to The Binding of Isaac!
