I've sunk probably a thousand hours into Slay the Spire, have beaten Hades, and just finished Cult of the Lamb. Looking for something else to scratch that itch- preferably on switch. Any suggestions?

Update: Y'all convinced me. I bought Binding of Isaac and am excited to start. I also tried out Dead Cells via Netflix, but feel like I'd prefer it with a controller compared to mobile. Gonna start with Isaac, and wait for a sale on Dead Cells. Thank you for all the recommendations! I'm saving this thread for future reference.

Highly recommended Roguelikes from personal experience or friend recommendations:

Binding of Isaac, FTL, Risk of Rain 2, Enter the Gungeon, Darkest Dungeon (my favorite)[not the second one], Monster Train, Crypt of the Necrodancer (another favorite).

FTL is amazing, especially with the multiverse mod. Basically a fan-made DLC, maybe even a 1.5-quel.

Thank you! I have binding of Isaac wishlisted. I watched some gameplay of Risk of Rain and it didn't grab me. I'll check out the other recs.

It's worth noting that Risk of Rain 1 and 2 are very different games (3rd person 3D vs. 2D side scroller), and both are good - so if 2 didn't grab you, maybe check out 1 and see if that's more your thing. (The remastered version has a lot of nice QOL stuff and some new game modes and items.)
