    Bought it cause I love pixel art and i thought it was similar to Hyper Light Drifter based on the videos. but this game is not. is little bit boring. you do the same thing in every single level. smash enemies and continue. the levels look the same and feel the same. they introduce some new enemies every once in a while and some new powers, but still is not enough. the only good thingBought it cause I love pixel art and i thought it was similar to Hyper Light Drifter based on the videos. but this game is not. is little bit boring. you do the same thing in every single level. smash enemies and continue. the levels look the same and feel the same. they introduce some new enemies every once in a while and some new powers, but still is not enough. the only good thing are the boss encounters. if you like pixel art you will be tempted to buy Phantom trigger, but the game gets boring very soon. there are better games about there.… Expand

    Gran juego de RPG de acción para la nintendo eshop.
    Una gran historia con mecánica y estilo de combate muy adecuado por un gran precio.
    Una compra bastante buena.

    Phantom Trigger is on the halfway between a true indie gem and a completely skippable title. It does have an entertaining hack n’ slash combat, but it falls short due to its repetitiveness. Its art style and atmospheric cyber-demon world is interesting enough, though, and may keep you hooked in addition to its surprisingly thought-provoking narrative.

    Phantom Trigger's unique atmosphere and efficient combat system are promising and make this a potentially high quality game but as it quickly becomes repetitive on the short term and displays a lack of variety concerning its enemies and objectives, its expectations end up falling a downward trajectory after rising high.

    Phantom Trigger is decent at being the top-down hack-and-slash game that the developers at Bread Team set out to create. The compelling story, stunningly pixelated neon world, and challenge are its strengths. If it weren’t bogged down by dull dungeon design, a limited move-set, and tedious gameplay, this action title could have stood out. As it is, Phantom Trigger is recommended only to those willing to look past its repetitive nature to experience this hardcore neon slasher.
