With 2021 7DRL reviews out, it's time to check out some of those with the highest ratings! Round 3 is here, including another new favorite from the year. The list we're working from: https://roguetemple.com/7drl/2021/

Today's games:

* 00:01:00 - Amoeba Roguelike (https://vectis.itch.io/amoeba-roguelike): An excellent entry and one of my 2021 favorites! Control a massive and growing amoeba as you defeat and absorb the militia, tanks, mechs, and more sent out from human cities, using their materials to create and upgrade a variety of organelles each with their own function. HUD colors could use more work, but there's so much strategy in this one--this is a *deep* 7DRL. Also the writing's fun :D
* 02:55:25 - Rogue Meteor (https://ponywolf.itch.io/roguemeteor): A pretty polished basic roguelike with animations and SFX but no especially unique mechanics, just managing health/oxygen/energy resources while fighting through open areas containing lots of random pickups and enemies.
* 03:32:17 - Dungeon Tetris (https://numeron.itch.io/dungeon-tetris): Our second Tetris-related roguelike to try out this year, this one doesn't integrate the block mechanics as tightly as Duntris. Turns can be used to either move the incoming block or perform character actions as you fight through a linear scrolling dungeon.
