## Quick answer

There is no single best roguelike for level creators; Streets of Rogue has the most proven editor-plus-Workshop pipeline, while Lumencraft is the pick if you want to paint fully destructible maps and define custom tower-defense or survival game types. Most popular roguelikes, including Enter the Gungeon, Nuclear Throne and The Binding of Isaac, list no Workshop or editor on their Steam pages.

## Key takeaways

- Level editors are rare in the genre: as of October 23, 2026, the Steam store pages of Enter the Gungeon, Nuclear Throne and The Binding of Isaac Rebirth do not list Steam Workshop support or a level editor.
- Streets of Rogue ranks #1 — its Steam page lists both a level editor and Steam Workshop, and it holds 96% positive across 8,425 English reviews at €19.50.
- Lumencraft ranks #2 and is the only game here whose editor is built around fully destructible, paintable terrain and custom game types (tower defense, action, survival or a mix), at €19.99 with 75% positive across 1,089 reviews.
- Neon Chrome (€14.79, 93% positive across 548 reviews) is the cheapest pick with both a level editor and Workshop, and its 2016 mod tools can build standalone game modes.
- Brotato (€4.99) and Noita (€18.99) list Steam Workshop but no level editor — they are mod platforms, not map-making tools.

## How we evaluated

We started from popular roguelikes and kept those whose Steam store page lists a level editor, Steam Workshop or mod support, then ranked them by how much a player can build and share, the size of the audience and price. Prices, review percentages and counts are point-in-time English-language figures from each game's Steam page on October 23, 2026, shown in euros as listed on the EU storefront. Editor details beyond the store page come from developer press material and GamingOnLinux. We did not measure Workshop catalogue sizes, so audience is judged by review counts only.
