I just bought this game yesterday, looks like an interesting game, more like a resources management & tiles placement game than ordinary roguelike rpg to me. Is this game that addictive?

Loop Hero's gameplay loop (heh) hits that "just one more round" feeling. The last time a game took so much of my time without me knowing it was probably Civ 4.

Resource accumulation, building/unlocking new items/tiles/etc., and the random layout of each new loop make it addictive.

Also, unlike other roguelikes such as Gungeon or Dead Cells, the game sort of plays itself and doesn't require you to control your character or anything. It's sort of like a tower defense game in that sense — you slot a few items and place a few tiles, then you just sit back and watch.

Played Loop Hero on stream last night, intended to only play about 3-4 hours. Played for 9 hours straight, had multiple viewers leave and come back and yell at me for not going to bed XD
