very enjoyable until the endgame grind where it just becomes an unbalanced mess

Doesn't run great on my laptop, but it's ok because Uncle Death lives rent-free in my brain forever

Great game, everything is so hilarious, fun and original. A LOT OF GRIND THOO

The only things this game had going for it was the grasshopper name, Uncle Death, and the marketing. Everything else is pretty hollow. Just another entry in the heat of the soulslike knockoff craze. It was kind of fun if you had absolutely nothing else to play, but it generally felt pretty boring beyond the first couple hours.

servicable roguelike with decent execution but woefully predatory microtransaction shit. Really dig the aesthetic though.


The pay to play killed it for me. Otherwise style gets a 5/5 SENPAI

tv cok uzaktaydı oynayamadım

i can't give a game with such a good OST a bad score

i love so much about this game but god i wish it could've just been a $60 singleplayer game instead of the FTP P2W pvpve disaster it is

I would LOVE to see a version of this that isn't designed as P2W.

You have 2 options. Spend real money on micro-transactions or grind for hours.

Neither is worth it because the game's combat gets repetitive and boring fast and the game just isn't interesting enough to want to spend all those hours grinding and this is coming from someone who loves Suda51.

Finished the mainline floors without ever paying a single cent. The people commenting about paywalls and micro transactions are all fucking casuals who never had to grind or get good in their life. But some criticism is valid to this game as it can get very repetitive to it's combat.

Only tips I'd give you is: Get Good, Get Grinding.

If you don't like grinding then this game is not for you. I personally didn't mind it because at the time I played it there was a stream I followed religiously so I would harvest mushrooms and farm materials while I listened to that. It was comfy.
Not even whaling will help you skip the grind to a significant degree because you can't directly buy specific materials or consumables.
That being said, the gameplay is pretty good. It has a bit of a Souls feel thanks to the controls and deliberate animations, but you can also sneak attack, do wrestling moves, dual wield and perform special attacks. The best weapons for me were the iron and the katana, but there's a lot more to choose from.
On a different note, I really like the visual style and presentation in general. Each area of the tower has its own distinct theme and every song in the OST is called "Let it Die" which makes it a pain to find a specific track.
What I don't like about the game is its always online nature. This is used to great effect for the procedural generation of levels and interactions with other players, but I could do without that if it meant that this game wouldn't get bricked some day in the future. Hell, maybe by the time you are reading this the shutdown already took place, I don't know.
In order to end this review on a high note, I want to mention that this isn't the only game I know where you can eat a lizard alive because Rune Classic exists. Believe in the power of the mushrooms!

This is the only MMO that cops you bitches. It also way to much space on my hard drive so I deleted day one but just take my word as it is a good game.

I sunk a ridiculous amount of hours into this game. I made an analysis video on the experience. I made this game part of my morning routine for at least two years. And finally putting it down for good (probably), all I can do is look at the screen in 2022 and say "shit."

Let It Die is pretty cool . . . for a f2p game. It doesn't really bare any pay2win mechanics, as it asks for your time, rather than your money. The mountain of grinding this game demands is gigantic, and that's just in regards to clearing the first 40 floors that is the original campaign (which I've done on a fresh save twice). Never-mind the floors above 40 which only ramp up its difficulty.

However, the game is undeniably tedious and monotonous. Enemy variety is very low, as most equate to merely being bots with equipment you can also get yourself. And the difficulty spikes get very annoying past the 12th or so floor. It's a frustrating game that I won't argue in its defense whenever folks decide they don't want to put in the time to clear the main campaign. I can't ignore its highlights though, such as the unique soundtrack and charming atmosphere full of personality. The host, Uncle Death, is a pretty fun character as well.

There's probably a conversation to be had about this kind of game being put in a $60 product. For a simple style of traversing and combat, it would certainly had to have done a lot more with its core design to be a full-priced game, but with so many games doing what this game already does, I'm not sure if that would be worth it.

With its sequel "Deathverse" approaching soon, I think it's the best time to put down this game and look forward to the new experience instead.

I thought it looked really cool and really enjoyed the aesthetics, the reason I didn't finish it was because I didn't like the gameplay but hey everything else was pretty cool.

Pues nada un juego gratuito, de mi señor suda51. Aqui lo más chulo, que tiene es de que manera te cuenta la historia. Uncle Death, uno de los personajes del juego es un cachondo. Pero lo que más, falla creo que es la falta de algunos recursos que nos puede joder demasiado la experiencia de juego.

raro de la forma mala, quisieron monetizar un soulslike y no les quedó claro como hacerlo sin parecer completas ratas

eu até gostei,mas é meio confuso e esquisito

I get the point of the game is that it's supposed to be repetitive and grinding since it's the theme of the game, but I have other games I wanna play plus it's just not nearly as fun as the developers thought it would be, making me want to put it down even more.


I’m a black gay guy and I can personally say that Suda51 did nothing for me, my life only changed a little bit and it was for the worse. Everything is so much better under Hideyuki Shin though. I feel respected - which I never do when democrats are involved.

I always liked the concept, but that's about it. Nothing else about it is very good at all, and it's very pay to win. Back to the drawing board.
