    I got this game for about one dollar and that's about what it's worth.

    Devil Daggers feels more like a little minigame that you'd find in a bigger, more complete FPS rather than its own, fully fledged game. It's simple, it's repetitive and it's pretty pointless; see how many seconds (or minutes, if you have the patience to get better at the game) you can survive running around a bleak,    I got this game for about one dollar and that's about what it's worth.

    The visuals are pretty decent. Good use of low-poly models and creepy creature designs.    … Expand

    A one note experience, Devil Daggers is the sort of thing you either love or hate. Less skilled players will find themselves blasting the same three or four enemies over and over and over again. It's intense and stylish, but also singular and highly repetitive. It's fun for a while, but it's also the style of game I played to death twenty years ago.

    With only one arena and death coming quickly, you would think this game would get boring fast. However it is very addictive as it keeps making you want to beat your high score due to its great combat.

    This might be the most suggestive vision of hell I’ve ever seen in a game, both repulsive and entrancing. [05/2016, p.69]

    Movement is smooth and fast, recalling the fluidity of seminal arena shooters such as Quake 3 and Unreal Tournament 2004. [May 2016, p.122]

    It’s not that deep, but it’s bizarrely engaging and fun.
