First of all I must say, beautiful fucking soundtrack wow.
Death's Door is an isometric hack n slash with a gorgeous pastel artstyle and challenging difficulty. I had lots of with the 14 hours it took me to complete this game.
This game has sort of a Zelda like exploration where you can use items you obtain in the game to come back to past areas and explore places you couldn't access before, and I am a sucker for this.
However the absolute best part of this game are the boss fights. These boss fights are challenging but fair, and any boss fight where I can die 20 times and still have fun because the music pumps you the fuck up is certainly one of my weaknesses.
This game would be an easy 10 for me if it weren't for 2 downsides. The first being the fact that the level design is a bit samey and tedious, you can easily get lost (and not in a good way) or forget where you need to go. This is understandable as levels are kind of labyrinthy in design, however a having map would have eliminated the tedium. The second downside is the amount of bosses. There was a severe lack of what was the best part of this game, and I'm sure if there were at least double the amount of bosses I would have been satisfied.
I definitely recommend this game to anyone wanting a challenging action game. I really hope a sequel is in the works as this game has some amazing potential to become a masterpiece.
