Children of Morta
Description
IT RUNS IN THE FAMILY
Children of Morta is an action RPG with a rogue-lite approach to character development, where you don’t play a single character - but a whole, extraordinary family of heroes. Hack’n’slash through hordes of enemies in procedurally generated dungeons, caves and lands and lead the family of Bergsons, with all their flaws and virtues, against the forthcoming Corruption.
FEATURES:
GAMEPLAY
Gameplay-wise it's a unique mix of action-adventure RPG, rogue-lite and hack and slash game. By leveling up, you develop not only individual characters but also the entire family. There is no permadeath and you can change family members between the dungeon runs.
STORY
The story takes place in a distant land but copes with themes and emotions common to all of us: love and hope, longing and uncertainty, ultimately loss... and sacrifice we are willing to make to save the ones we care the most for. Ultimately, it's about a family of heroes standing against the encroaching darkness.
DUNGEON CRAWLING
All the dungeons in the game are procedurally generated, which means their layout is different with each adventure. There can be from two to four levels of each dungeon, with a unique boss fight at the end. You can always get back to the previous dungeons to get extra XP or finish all the side quests.
CHARACTERS & SKILLS
Ranged attacks, magic spells, blocks, stuns, healing, evasions and passive skills - it's all there for you to discover, unlock and upgrade. You can choose from seven different family members, each one having unique skill sets. The father, John - a protective warrior with a sword and shield. The elder daughter Linda - a precise archer. Kevin, a quiet fighter equipped with deadly daggers. Lucy - a lively and bold fire mage. Mark - a mindful martial arts fighter. Joey - who smashes his enemies with a sledgehammer. And the latest addition to the family - Apan, a mighty healer and a firm defender in one.
ART STYLE
A combination of hand-painted pixel art and frame-by-frame animations partnered with modern lighting techniques come to life to create the beautifully dangerous world of Children of Morta!

9/10
Dead Mage belts three home runs: one for the story, another for the action, and the last for the deep and interesting RPG elements

4.5/5 stars
Save for the issues with RNG and the procedurally generated environments, Children of Morta delivers an exceptional experience with superior gameplay and a surprising amount of heart.

95/100
With procedural worlds, fantastic cooperative combat, and a storyline that makes you care about the entire Bergson family, Children of Morta represents the best example of games as art. There are still a few months to go in 2019, but Children of Morta is looking like my Indie Game of the Year.

A cool game with a solid story.
The graphics might not wow you, but the story is great. The game has challenging bosses. You get to play multiple characters with unique abilities. You upgrade stats and even some skills are shared between all the family members who fight the battles in the game. I recomment it. It took me much longer than it will take a skilled gamer. Most gamers can finish the game in under 20 hours. It took me over 25.

Perfect Co-Op
I've only played this game with a partner and the Children of Morta never falters in building challenges, opening new realms and maps all with special enemies. One particular thing that stands out is the variety of Bergsons so many abilities to vibe off of and combo together while playing shoulder to shoulder. This is perfect for someone who's not great at reflexes it's pretty fun even when you're loosing 2 minutes into the level. over 10 hours in and no glitches or cheap deaths.
