What players think
The recurring themes across 121 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Route selection can influence how a run develops and helps reinforce the sensation of exploring an unpredictable abyss.
There are more than 20 playable characters, giving players a sizable roster to experiment with rather than forcing every attempt through exactly the same starting conditions.
In all I'd say grab this game - it's a solid-buy for its price (a definite at a discount) and the Gauntlet vibes, graphics, layout, music and co-op (local via gamepad) make for a nice slog-fest.
More interestingly, shop upgrades are connected not only to greater rewards but also to increased difficulty.
All heroes attacks also looks good and are unique for each hero thus showing the amount of work that was put into pixel graphics to represents these attacks and each hero own identity.
The level layouts also feature multiple possible routes, adding meaningful navigation decisions to the combat.
