    In its current state, Survive! Mr. Cube doesn’t have enough juice to be a solid recommendation to roguelike fans. More than anything, it feels like a beta that still needs six more months. I don’t want to sound too harsh, though – this small team of devs is 100% on the right track, and with more resources, more polish and a little more depth, I could easily see this one becoming a favorite. I hope they keep at it.

Due to Rogue-lite genre,it gave me a serious pain but once I understand how the system works it is quite interesting. The game is definitely for trophy hunters as it took less than 2 hours for me to get platinum. I highly recommend it to light gamers. Best game ever for killing time. Caution! This game is pretty addictive! Expand

    It was amazing to just lay back and enjoy running around like a child.
    It's fascinating and exciting to find out what is the characters that lies between each and every death that i make inside the game.

    It is very easy to earn the trophy if you wish, and i would highly recommend for users who wants to get some rest from the complicated games nowadays

For every good thing in theSurvive Mr. Cube is one of the more odd games that I was asked to review. You see, it sits on a balance of 50/50. For every good thing in the game there is one thing that can take it away. Now while you would wonder why I wouldn't just give it a 5 then and call it a day, I mean, it is right in the middle! There are a few things that make this worth a 7 definitely.

    The main goal of the game is to find your way out of the deep dark cave that you found yourself in. Right off the bat you are greeted with nice art style, nice ambient music, and a very easy to grasp tutorial.

    After this though some issues occur. The game is tough! at first! if you underestimate the cute chibi style characters you will quickly be dead and back at the beginning. But, once you stand your ground and gather enough items and equipment, you should get through easily enough. There are special encounters other than bosses, where you fight other people stranded in the same situation as you. They are much tougher than normal enemies but drop some pretty good loot upon death.

    You do all of this while opening chests, collecting coins to buy things at the merchant when you die, and destroying enemy spawners so you can use them as portals until you get to the boss room. Beat the boss, continue to the next journey.

    Here is the thing. I am not sure if it was an oversight, or just intended. But in the severely limited options menu, there is no save option. Now I don't mean a save scum option. many games allow you to make temp saves, which allow you to save, exit to menu, and come back later. Those saves also are deleted once you load in, to stop save "scumming".

    The combat is fun, with a varied amount of weapons and items to have at your disposal, a lot of time was put into it, and I even caught a few pop culture references that did get a laugh out of me. My only concern is that since attacking uses your stamina, it is unfortunate that the sensitivity is so high that barely touching the right stick causes you to swing. However, if they updated the game to allow some controller options, this would be a complaint that is completely fixable.

    It Is disappointing that I enjoyed the music in the game but there is so little in it. I would like to see more available.

    Being created by three people this game really does have potential. It is a port of the IOS game of the same name, and now that it has been introduced to consoles, I would love to see the developers focus on consoles first if they ever make a sequel. Even giving it a 7/10, I can recommend it to anyone who just wants a fun and simple dungeon crawler on the cheap.

The game has depressed atmosphere and simple rules. Everyone adapt to game easily and enjoy the game till the end. Also, you don't need to clear the game, to unlock platinum trophy. Conditions for trophy are very simple and easy. It'll take only 1 hour in my experience. But the game has not many contents, everything is so simple and little bit boring. Choice is yours. Expand

    Kind of fun but it needlessly runs at a locked low framerate and low resolution. Even on the PS5 it runs like crap
