Indefatigable delivers once again!
If you liked Amid Evil, The Black Labyrinth will be more than satisfying. Everything that made the original campaign so good is back in full force... and even arguably slightly better. The difficulty level is still reasonably challenging, never truly unfair or frustrating: the enemies are numerous, but each of their attacks can be dodged if you pay attention. As expected since the base game had a different enemy roster for each episode, every foe you’ll encounter in this DLC is new and engaging to fight, due to interesting movesets and quirks! The levels remain of a commendable quality: they’re very fun to go through, varied in their visuals and layouts, and not overwhelmingly complex – plus, the narrow suspended walkways that could be annoying to navigate in the main campaign are almost completely absent :). This expansion relies notably on sprawling environments: the levels are all pretty huge awe-inspiring, the downside being that finding secrets in these gigantic spaces can be a bit of a chore... Visually, the game still leans heavily into fantastic and highly distinctive aesthetics mixing bizarre fantasy, low-poly, and psychedelia. Each level is once again a symphony of shapes and colors, further cementing Amid Evil as one of the most gorgeous and unique-looking shooters on the market… and I’m very much including AAA titles. My favorite parts of the DLC might be the additions to your arsenal. While the weapons of the main campaign didn’t enthused me all that much, TBL fixes that with two incredibly badass new toys: the gauntlets and the Voidsplitter, both of which feel straight out of some insane anime and are very satisfying to use... although you won’t do it too often, the first being a risky melee attack and the second always low on ammo. The only issue of TBL may be its (relatively) short length, being maybe one third as long as the main game. Still, it’s a really good expansion that you should definitely play if you had fun with the campaign!
