What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The gameplay of this game is increadibly fun and while it's difficulty can be frustrating at times, like many games in the rougelike/rougelite it's increadibly rewarding when you do finally manage to beat whatever you might have gotten stuck on before.
This is my 1st review and I am not use to writing anything online so if there are any problems please kindly let me know.
"Our Darker Purpose" is a stew composed of "Binding of Isaac"'s gameplay, a "Don't Starve" art style, and an atmosphere similar to Tim Burton's earlier movies.
The atmosphere of this game is increadibly compelling with an artstyle and soundtrack that while simple are quite compelling.
My major complaints with the game are the limits to its controller support, as well as I am truly convinced it is impossible to get 100% achievements in this game, unless hacking or glitching was used.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. One more theme was raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and is not shown.
