    Flinthook is a very special game. We are a space bounty hunter who ends up with pirates, assaulting their ships. We will have to go through each room, procedurally created, to find the leaders of the bands. Its gameplay is excellent and will delight the fans of roguelike and Megaman.

    Sure you’re going to swear at the bubbled enemies that need to be hooked before they can be attacked, and you’ll die to an ‘unfair’ trap a hundred times, but you learn your lessons each time, improving as you progress. With tons of hidden collectibles and procedurally generated levels, there’s a huge amount of replayabiilty within, even if you do master your hook and become the best pirate in the whole galaxy. For a small indie title, I came away impressed, not with just the quality of each aspect of Flinthook, but that in the end, it was simply fun to play, even with its frustrations.

    In Flinthook you will not stop jumping and shooting while you are looting spaceships. The game seems to be a usual platform title but it has depth thanks to its random generation of scenarios. No battle will be the same as the previous one only its playable formula ends up generating a certain feeling of monotony.
