Synthèse des discussions
Texte original · AnglaisA turn-based creature-collecting roguelike where every monster, item and environment is a real clay sculpture that was scanned into the game; you catch a team each run and beat the Top 5 ranked trainers to become champion.
Texte original · AnglaisSculplings is a small, solo-dev-plus-one indie (Conor Garity and Liam Kerrigan) that left Early Access (launched March 4, 2025) for a 1.0 on March 17, 2026. It holds Very Positive on Steam, about 191 positive vs 1 negative of 192 reviews (99.5%) at the time of the data pull, and players call it a charming, funny Pokemon-meets-Slay-the-Spire hybrid with no grind. The few reservations are polish, bugs, balance spikes and a shortish content pool. There is no Metacritic or OpenCritic critic coverage yet (the Metacritic page exists but has zero critic and zero user reviews), so reception is entirely player-driven. The developer is active, shipped a run of 1.0.x fixes and a 1.1.0 content patch on April 28, then said updates will stay small because of burnout; an unknown number of reviewers also mention being friends or community members of the dev, so read the near-perfect score with some salt.
Ce que les joueurs apprécient
- Texte original · AnglaisHand-sculpted clay art is the headline: creatures and even scenery with faces are real sculptures, giving the game a distinct identity that players say avoids the Temu-Pokemon look
- Texte original · AnglaisHumor and writing land well: silly creature names, on-the-nose jokes, a few swears, an edgy rival and cliche trainers played for laughs
- Texte original · AnglaisNo grinding: each run you pick 1 of 3 starters, catch up to 4 creatures, collect items/pins and adapt, which players say removes the usual monster-tamer XP grind
- Texte original · AnglaisRoguelite structure gives real build variety and strong 'one more run' pull; some players report ways to break the game wide open with scaling attacks, though these are not mandatory
- Texte original · AnglaisBuffs and debuffs persisting through switches, plus a solid type chart and clean UI, make the simple turn-based combat feel more strategic than expected
- Texte original · AnglaisMeta-progression is mostly new options (pin slots, unlocked items, cosmetics, upgraded boss passives) rather than raw power
- Texte original · AnglaisCheap at $10.99, runs well on Steam Deck in reviewers' reports, and the dev engages with the community
- Texte original · AnglaisHandmade, no-AI-art production is a recurring selling point for reviewers
Ce que les joueurs critiquent
- Texte original · AnglaisLack of polish for a post-Early-Access release: settings not persisting, visual oddities, typos, ghost inventory slots, and boss/miniboss AI sometimes wasting a turn
- Texte original · AnglaisBugs on the Steam forum: the Tank achievement and Pudduo passive misfiring, pins not working, a swap bug, revive behavior, Stoompy issues, and cloud backup/save problems
- Texte original · AnglaisBoss mechanics are not telegraphed, so you can lose a run learning a gimmick the hard way
- Texte original · AnglaisOccasional balance spikes such as an enemy move that instantly kills a creature and can be used repeatedly
- Texte original · AnglaisContent is on the short side with a limited creature and item pool compared to established monster-tamers
- Texte original · AnglaisWindows only (no Mac or Linux build); saves live in an obscure LocalLow folder and cloud sync has had problems
- Texte original · AnglaisNot deep by the standards of the genre, per some otherwise positive reviewers
Caractéristiques distinctives
- Texte original · AnglaisEvery monster, item and environment was physically sculpted in clay (300+ sculptures per the official site) and scanned into the game
- Texte original · AnglaisRoguelike run structure applied to Pokemon-style catching: a fresh team each run, pick 1 of 3 starters, randomized paths through 5 environments
- Texte original · Anglais100+ creatures, 30+ passive Pins and 15+ bosses, with Top 5 rank trainers each having unique mechanics
- Texte original · AnglaisStat buffs and debuffs persist across switches, which is unusual for the genre
- Texte original · AnglaisShiny variants and evolution guessing game, plus cosmetic collectibles, in a roguelite wrapper with a cheeky adult-ish humor tone
Points qui divisent
- Texte original · AnglaisDepth: some praise 'decent depth and many viable builds', others say it is not the deepest game and feels like a vibe-out experience
- Texte original · AnglaisHumor: many love the on-the-nose silly writing, while one reviewer notes the swearing and adult themes make it unsuitable for young kids despite the cute visuals
- Texte original · AnglaisBalance: infinite-scaling attacks are called the strongest option by some, though others say the roguelike balance is well tuned
- Texte original · AnglaisPolish: several reviewers call the bugs forgivable at the price, others say they would suggest waiting
Répétition et contraintes
- Texte original · AnglaisDefault-speed animations, text boxes and post-fight XP gain linger too long, which would wear over many runs
- Texte original · AnglaisLearning boss gimmicks by dying to them with no foreshadowing
- Texte original · AnglaisHunting for the item you want among a bloated unlock pool with no chest reroll
- Texte original · AnglaisMinor jank and bugs interrupting flow, plus some mis-tracking achievements
- Texte original · AnglaisRepeating runs is required to see the story, so the run count needed to finish can feel long to some, even though there is no traditional grind
- Texte original · AnglaisThe game reportedly pushes players to leave a Steam review (the sole negative review says it 'kinda forces you to make a review'), which feels naggy and may also inflate the near-perfect score
Améliorations espérées
- Texte original · AnglaisProper controller support (the top recurring request; the dev said it is nearly complete)
- Texte original · AnglaisGame speed or faster animation/text options, since battle animations and XP gain feel slow on long sessions
- Texte original · AnglaisItem bloat management: chests have no reroll and finding wanted items gets harder as unlocks accumulate (enemy-drop rerolls for coins were since added)
- Texte original · AnglaisMore content: new creatures (a frog with a tongue is requested), legendaries, and paid DLC that some fans say they would buy
- Texte original · AnglaisBetter save and quit feedback, persistent settings, working cloud saves, and an unlock-requirement menu for pins and emblems
- Texte original · AnglaisUltrawide and GeForce Now compatibility were raised on the forum
Texte original · AnglaisEarly Access launched March 4, 2025 and 1.0 shipped March 17, 2026, with reviews from Early Access playtests still on the page (some reviewers logged it months before 1.0). Post-launch patches 1.0.1 to 1.0.4 fixed softlocks, achievements, an infinite reroll exploit with the rabbit foot pin, music sliders and broken moves like Bloom and Hive Mind; 1.1.0 (April 28) added the capturable plant-type Stoompy, fixed a swap bug and rebalanced XP and evolution stats. The dev later announced lighter updates due to burnout, focusing on small additions and bug fixes and not big features like legendaries, with controller support nearly done. Steam-based ownership trackers show owners of 0 to 20,000 and a revenue calculator page reported $0 (an unreliable placeholder); with 192 reviews a rough Boxleiter-style guess would be single-digit thousands of copies, not a sourced figure. Windows only, priced $10.99.

Texte original · AnglaisTier list Part 5 (2026)
Texte original · AnglaisSculplings is a turn-based, Pokemon-style roguelike where you field a team of four creatures, each with four attacks and a passive, and counter elemental types. Its hook is that every asset is physically hand-sculpted by a single developer. He stresses that the gimmick alone would not be enough, but the game underneath is solid and truly adapted to a run-based format. He finds it very funny and content-rich, though he tires of Pokemon-style gameplay himself. He places it in A tier for its uniqueness and the sheer amount of work behind it.
Ce que le créateur apprécie
- Texte original · AnglaisHand-sculpted-in-real-life art by one person is unique and impressive
- Texte original · AnglaisPokemon formula reworked for roguelike: faster progression, quick evolutions, many abilities and items
- Texte original · AnglaisSurprising amount of content; each Elite Four is fought one at a time across a run, plus a fifth final boss
- Texte original · AnglaisHumor, NPC writing, attack and creature names are some of the funniest he has seen in a roguelike
- Texte original · AnglaisMeta-progression is unlocks and cosmetics rather than raw power, and handmade cosmetics are motivating
- Texte original · AnglaisJoy of discovering creatures, items, moves, jokes and evolutions
Problèmes relevés par le créateur
- Texte original · AnglaisPokemon-style gameplay gets repetitive and tiring for him, so he has not finished it
- Texte original · AnglaisRuns are pretty hard and require understanding the systems
- Texte original · AnglaisDiscovery value fades once you have seen all the sculplings, leaving just gameplay and humor
- Texte original · AnglaisType system is a bit all over the place (food, spooky, etc.)
Observations sur la conception
- Texte original · AnglaisEvery creature and cosmetic is actually sculpted by hand in real life by a solo developer
- Texte original · AnglaisTurns the Pokemon Elite Four structure into repeated roguelike run goals
- Texte original · AnglaisDiscovery of handmade creatures is itself a core reward loop
Avis actualisé
Texte original · AnglaisPreviously featured in his video on five little-known interesting games; this is a re-feature, not a tier move.
