Dead Cells
Description
Dead Cells is a roguelite, metroidvania inspired, action-platformer. You'll explore a sprawling, ever-changing castle... assuming you’re able to fight your way past its keepers in 2D souls-lite combat. No checkpoints. Kill, die, learn, repeat.
Dead Cells puts you in control of a failed alchemic experiment trying to figure out what's happening on a sprawling, ever-changing and seemingly cursed Island. Immortal but crippled, your last resort is to take over bodies in order to move, explore… and fight.
While you may well be immortal, the corpses you possess are not. Each time your host is destroyed, you will be sent back to the dungeon to find yourself a new one and start again...
Experience a Roguevania, mixing an interconnected world, branching paths and unlockable skills with the constant adrenaline-pumping threat of permadeath. No checkpoints. You either vanquish the final boss in one go or you try again. However, you keep some of your progress for successive runs new paths you’ve unlocked, access to new levels, mutations, abilities and weapons.
Tough but fair combat, responsive controls, challenging foes, and of course, the emergency panic roll to get you out of trouble make for a visceral and cathartic action game.

A stellar action platformer with gorgeous presentation and excellent combat. Punishing but worth it.

The Metroidvania at its best: a swaggering role-playing beat-'em-up that's very easy on the eyes and dense with secrets.

9.5/10
Dead Cells fuses breakneck motion with an emphasis on risk-and-reward for an incredibly engaging action-platformer.

The best metroidvania I ever played
Dead Cells is an amazing metroidvania that is fast paced and skill based. There are tons of unlockable gears and a good variety of levels to keep things fresh even after dozens of hours. I love it when games give players the option to customize various aspects of the game and Dead Cells is one of those few games that let you do just that. While the normal game is very difficult at higher difficulties, most average gamers should be able to beat the hardest difficulty and unlock all gears thanks to all the ways to customize the game. My only gripe is that due to a bug, I am unable to obtain 3 blueprints that require doing daily challenges. This is an issue that many players are experiencing (it's not limited to linux). I had the game for over a month and I still have not been able to start a single daily challenge. At this point, I'm not sure the devs will address this issue.
