    I've been playing for a very long time. I wish it wasn't so hard. There is an assist mode but it still feels bad.

    We are all aware that Dead Cells is a game overshadowed by Hades. As far as I can see, he is constantly compared to Hades. But did you know that Dead Cells is a game released a year earlier? The two games are the same genre, even two-dimensional, but they're actually so different. They're both two-dimensional, but their preferred dimensions aren't even the same. I will not make this reviewWe are all aware that Dead Cells is a game overshadowed by Hades. As far as I can see, he is constantly compared to Hades. But did you know that Dead Cells is a game released a year earlier? The two games are the same genre, even two-dimensional, but they're actually so different. They're both two-dimensional, but their preferred dimensions aren't even the same. I will not make this review based on comparison because I do not find it correct. However, I don't think it's a game that can be crushed under Hades.

    Dead Cells is basically a Roguelike game, based on dying and playing again. In such games it is difficult to keep the player in the game because no one likes to lose progress. Therefore, it is necessary to show the player that he is making progress, that the previous half-hour sequence was not wasted. Dead Cells does this, but in a slightly different way than other games. While other games usually provide you with permanent updates that will work in other rounds, Dead Cells does these updates in two ways; new platforming abilities and new items/weapons. Thus, the game stands out with one difference from other games of the same genre: Exploration. Dead Cells is a game about exploring and trying new things more than its counterparts. Although there are countless weapons in the game, you have to discover these weapons in previous games and buy them later. Thus, when you die, you will be able to explore more places and try different weapon alternatives in the next round. This keeps you in the loop of gameplay.

    The game is difficult at first. Because there is no "regenerate health by staying out of combat" mechanic that we are used to for a long time. Well naturally, the game expects you to die and play again. While the game is difficult even in this state, it also shows you that when you finish the game, you have actually finished the easiest part of the game, and you have a longer road ahead of you. Here some people may quit the game, but it is also possible to see a large majority that continues to play. In addition, it does this challenge not only by increasing the number and health of monsters, but by actually causing a separate trouble for you at every difficulty level.

    The game also incorporated death and resurrection into the story. In most games, dying does not end the game, you either rewind or respawn, this is actually a mechanic that we are very used to, but we have to accept that it is not very logical. However, Dead Cells incorporated this death into the story. So dying and being resurrected is a part of you in this universe, which cuts down on not understanding anything from the story. Games don't always need to understand the entire universe, but the player at least wants to understand the main scenario, why he's doing what he's doing at that moment, and Dead Cells replies, "The character you're directing in the game doesn't know why he's doing what he's doing either." While this may seem like a short cut, at least it's a simple mechanic that prevents you from finishing the game without understanding anything.

    In short, Hades might seem like a better game in the first 5-10 hours, with more exploration, innovations and difficulty, but if you're looking for a game that you can play longer, Dead Cells definitely offers a longer and deeper gameplay. I definitely suggest you give it a chance.    … Expand

    Про все остальное умолчу так как это есть во всех rpg.

    Мне не особо нравится данный сейтинг игр, но эта игра смогла мной овладеть в хорошем смысле. Впечатляющие саундтреки которые всегда были в тему с локацией, графика,сюжет .(хоть кому-то и может показаться что сюжета там небыло,но для меня бегать по локации и искать разбитый пазл сюжета , а затем собирать его в едино было очень приятно и интересно.) Также в микро кат сценах есть свой шарм (анимация как самого гг так и мобов)

The gameplay really echoes and channels your deepest muscle memory of playing platforming games in the 16bit era, except with the modern fast pace that you would expect from most games these days. Its very fast paced, it almost feels like button mashing at times, but the gameplay is very tight and fluid. The progression system is also very well paced, and it drip feeds new items at a perfect speed. The game consistently introduces new items, moves, or costumes for you to work toward unlocking, so it brings in some grinding, but it is not a chore by any means. Its fun exploring the new weapons and finding the best combinations. The graphics and sound are beautiful as well, which also pulls at your nostalgia strings. Everything is very simple, yet very effective.

    I have been playing this game for years across multiple systems, and I keep coming back for more. This game was fantastic years ago, and its even better now in 2023. The amount of content they continue to add to the game is astonishing, and I absolutely love all of the easter eggs to the major indie games on Steam that share the shelf space with this game. I would highly recommend you buy all of the DLC upfront - it adds so many new areas, new costumes, and new weapons that its best just to have it from the start.

    The only flaw with this game is something that this genre will naturally suffer from. While there is a ton of content to unlock, there will always be a wall that you hit with this game where it begins to feel repetitive. I personally think that this is unavoidable in a genre which involves doing the same thing over and over. But of all the rogue lite games, this is the one I have consistently returned to. This is a must own on Steam.    … Expand

By the way, I don't see the point of designing so many weapons/skills because most of them are just useless junk, sometimes I even regret unlocking them becasue the only thing they are good at is polluting my starting pack.… Expand

Also i see some people think that is too much updates for a offline game. I personally think that it is the plus to the development to listen the game's community, although sometime it make the game lost their point to non-hardcore gamer who can't follow the updates on time. So in a word, well done Motion Twin.

    Dead Cells is a fast-paced (obviously) rouge-lite action platformer that does its job pretty good. It has hidden bosses which are amazing, secret places, weapons etc. If you want to give a shot to Dead Cells, don't just play the main story and quit, find secret bosses and places etc. to have one of the best rouge-like experiences you can experience

    Nice game, with a lot of maps and options and styles to play it. Ideal for podcast and relaxing play.

    It's not my type of game, but it has a very good graphical component and is interesting in gameplay.

    It's a cool, funny game with challenge crumbs. Many references to another games, smooth mechanics and MANY-MANY weapons. It's cool. And for several passes. BUT! Few bosses and locations :( and little achivs bug.

    Dead Cells is an adrenaline duty for every player. It gets you not only with a beautifully crafted dark world and countless weapons, but mostly with elaborated gameplay. [Issue#288]

    As one of the best 2D action games to date, Dead Cells is a game people will be talking about for a long time. A true masterpiece.

    Combat is very satisfying: strikes have proper weight behind them, hitboxes are where you expect them to be and controls are very responsive. Procedural generation, on the other hand, leaves much to be desired: from playthrough to playthrough, levels feel too similar. [Issue#232, p.68]
