Games Like Maze Mice (2026)

Shared: Bullet Heaven, Build Synergy

Forty-five-plus potato characters, six weapon slots, and a shop that fires every 20 waves: Brotato distills the horde-survivor loop down to its most potent form and dares you to put it down.

Shared: tier:sub-5

Russian roulette with a 12-gauge and enough item-based mind games to make pure luck feel like a skill issue. Dirt cheap, brutally short, weirdly hard to put down.

Shared: Build Synergy

Poker logic meets roguelike obsession in a package so deceptively compact it has erased entire weekends. If multiplier math sounds fun, budget your sleep accordingly.

Shared: tier:sub-5

Three modes, one free download, and a cheater problem that Team Jade is still chasing down nine seasons in. Worth your time if you squad up; rougher if you go solo.

Shared: Unlockable Characters

Permadeath, zero hand-holding, and a Tim Burton fever dream aesthetic: Don't Starve earns every hour it steals from you, but only if trial-and-error is your idea of a good time.
