In conclusion, City of Brass is a decent game IF you like first-person dungeon crawlers with no turn-based action. While I was enchanted in the beginning, after 5-10 hours, I was sadly disillusioned. This is one city that should’ve lost, like Atlantis kind-of lost.

While there is something to be said about the game’s combat and Arabian setting, the frustrating amount of traps and repetitive gameplay makes City of Brass hard to play, and the lack of upgrades makes it hard to come back.

City of Brass takes us to a lost city in the desert, where our thief will have to explore 12 levels against the clock while fighting with a host of nightmare enemies and avoid many traps, to be able to seize the wonderful treasurers and riches that the City hides. The first person action of this roguelike with procedural generation levels, will offer us a high challenge, although perhaps it ends up being too strict and this makes the game can be repetitive and demoralizing if this style of play is not for us.

Despite its promises, City of Brass is an ideal game to buy on sale, where the fun will surely be measurable with your investment. It's a shame, but with the Switch building a stronger catalog every year, the competition is fierce and City of Brass doesn’t have what it takes to be a must buy game on Nintendo’s console.

City of Brass brings its mix of challenging roguelite gameplay and Persian fantasy to the Nintendo Switch, but control issues mar the experience.
