    This looks so promising. A little jewel of a game, with well-polished mechanics. I feel so sorry for this game, it could have been a perfect mobile game, but it's way too hard. You won't last long, and the short run you'll have will make you feel rather dissatisfied with the experience.

    With the difficulty toned down, this would be perfect.

    Downwell is a game you keep on playing. The flashy gameplay, perfectly balanced rogue-lite elements and constant rewards make this game an instant classic. The game is surprisingly deep and the only thing that gets in the way of it being brilliant, are the limited controls smartphones and tablets offer.

    Downwell is an incredibly addictive game, and one of the best arcades we've played this year on iDevices.

    Downwell is easily one of the best action games to hit mobile this year. It’s intense, it’s unique, and every game you play goes towards unlocking something new.
