    Though it’s pretty derivative, Devil Slayer Raksasi is a notable take on the roguelike. Its directly overhead camera perspective is novel but serves really to draw you too far out of the action, and its randomly earned drops leave it straddling the line between roguelite and roguelike. The real problem is that most of its other elements have been seen before and in better games.

    Once you die, everything gets reset but your character upgrades are permanent.

    In nintendo, FPS drops here and there for a nano second all on a sudden and it is forgivable.

    Read description before you collect any relics and you will be good to go.

    Overall, a pretty little gem.

    When you’ve got a crowded eShop first impressions can be everything, so when you struggle with a title right out of the gate it can be toughWhen you’ve got a crowded eShop first impressions can be everything, so when you struggle with a title right out of the gate it can be tough to recover. Raksasi does end up delivering a decent enough roguelike top-down slasher experience, but warming up to it can be a challenge since you’re pretty quickly left to simply figure out what to do. Certainly roguelike fans will understand some of the way things work without too much info, but for folks who are still getting acquainted this may not be an ideal title to get the introduction with. Once you’re locked into what limited skills you have to work with you’ll get your dodge and weave down, though you’ll need to be mindful of how differently a variety of enemies change up their attacks to challenge your skills with. A variety of characters and weapons can then be unlocked to then spice things up a bit and help you develop more of a style your own, but since the base combat never gets much more elaborate beyond biding your time and dodging attacks before effectively countering genre fans with plenty of exposure may find this one runs out of excitement a bit too quickly.

After hundreds of hours of playing Hades and Dead Cells, I got really oversaturated with action roguelike games, and I was able to return to it only after starting to play Devil Slayer Raksasi. Cool art and setting, 8 playable characters, more than 200 of relics, about 200 monster types to slay, plus the developers are constantly releasing new game updates and patches.… Full Review »
