You lose all un-infused equipment - more on that later - and start the day over from scratch. As with rogue-likes, your day resets every time you die - or when 24 hours are up. What is unique, and most certainly interesting, is the plot, and at least initially, the dynamic between Cole and Juliana.ĭeathloop has you, Cole, trying to “break the loop” on an island that is somehow trapped in time. With that established, I believe I can make the argument that Deathloop’s core conceit isn’t at all unique. Games like Dark Souls and Hades are similar as well, resetting the world you know every time you die, resulting in an endless, repetitive cycle that only painfully acquired knowledge can break.
The trope is the same: You play a while, die, and repeat the cycle armed with knowledge of what the future holds. Extending the idea further, rogue-likes are another form of time-loop.
