    I am a casual gamer and games like Dead Cells are hit or miss with me. I was in the mood for a game like this, so I feel like it made the game better for me than I would have felt picking it up randomly.

    This game is crazy fun, if you like the Metroidvania style games. It can be a little repetitive, but still fun!

    So this game can be frustrating and fun at the same time. You die a lot. It is a rogue-like action platformer. As you progress, the game gets a little easier. I would recommend.

    Dark Souls meets Metroidvania

    I had heard the reviews and had to see for myself. Bought the original dark souls but never quite got into the series due to the repetition after dying. With this though the procedurally generates levels keeps making me come back for more because you never quite know what your run is going to be like or what items/combos you’re going to get. Such a great game, can’t wait for more content/a sequel to this game

    Great fast-paced action. Pretty difficult by design. I wish the level design and powerups weren't so random but they have to be to keep the game from being too repetitive.
