Dead Cells is a shining example of a phenomenal, engaging roguelite. Having languished in my Steam backlog for quite some time, I've been slowly chipping away at progression in this stylish, challenging platformer. The action reminds me of the beloved Super Smash Bros. series.

The homages to other indie titles are particularly enjoyable, clearly showing the developers' respect for the content they were granted permission to use.

I purchased all of the DLC, but the Castlevania expansion resonated with me the most. The evident love and respect for the source material shine through in the phenomenal music, iconic locations, and weapons that are a blast to use.

I'll definitely keep returning to Dead Cells over time to continue progressing and exploring more of its world.

I JUST WANTED THE DAMN MAGICIAN OUTFIT BUT I HAVE TO GRIND THROUGH SO MANY HURDLES JUST TO GET IT LIKE GIVE ME A BREAK AND I GOTTA USE THE BOSS CELLS JUST TO GET TO THE AREA OF THE ENEMY THAT DROPS THE DRIFTER SKIN AND YET THE DROP IS SO LOW THAT IT MAKES ME WANNA SCREAM

Absolute crack. I lost about a week to this earlier in the year, and I would have lost much, much more time to it if it had any sort of thoughtful narrative.

perdi meu save e kitei pra sempre

La DA est superbe, les musiques sympas et le gameplay agréable. J'aime la difficulté, mais je ne pense pas que j'aurai la foi d'aller jusqu'en cellule 5.

Roguelites and likes are the spawn of satan himself, so when a game in this cursed genre introduces options that help get rid of the stench of it, I always end up giving it a shot. I end up regretting a lot of the time, but Dead Cells is one of the few exceptions. the gameplay's fun, the visuals are great, the music is fantastic and the loop is very satisfying. The assist options still fail at getting rid of some of the hallmarks of the genre, but they were good enough for me to find this an ultimately enjoyable experience.
