When I heard I'd only be getting 15 minutes to try Bandai Namco's newly announced roguelite Towa and the Guardians of the Sacred Tree, I was slightly perturbed. Fifteen minutes, after all, isn't a lot of time to fully evaluate a game, especially at an event with demos scattered in every direction.
Some genres, however, are able to show off their best attributes in a short amount of time, and as I've now learned, roguelites are chief among them. In just a quarter of an hour, Towa and her...
