A really great game marred by blur

The title might seem a bit off, but Children of Morta only has a single noticable flaw IMO, but it's one that easily drops it to 3/5 for me, and I was tempted to go lower. What is Children of Morta? At its core it's a hack&slay game where you explore dungeons and slowly advance a story, with the typical roguelite element of repeated runs and slow permanent upgrades thrown in. What sets it apart is that there's in fact a host of player characters you slowly unlock, each with only a couple of abilities, but as a result there is a ton of variety. Oh and it looks gorgeous. The artwork is something to behold. But speaking of looks, the one crucial flaw: The game doesn't scale its pixels, and for some reason the *text* isn't scaled properly. This has the effect that *everything* is blurry, and quite significantly so. There are resolutions where it's better, but it never goes away, there doesn't seem to be a "match", pixel-perfect, resolution. And while that might be okay for the artwork which is still pretty, having the text not scale cleanly sadly makes it induce a headache in me whenever I need to read a bit. It's... weird to describe. It's like your eyes are over-strained and keep going out of focus. Super weird thing, especially because the game had a lot of patches, so there's no hope this'll get fixed. Without that flaw it'd be a really really great game though so I'm still hoping it'll eventually be resolved.

GOG version eternally outdated

Don't get me wrong, it's a really good roguelite. But the Steam version received its last update in 2022 (the "Fellowship Sanctuary" one) that added online co-op to the game, and the GOG one is still stuck in 2020. They promised to update the GOG version too, but that never happened and now they are remain silent about that. Just do yourself a favor and buy it on Steam.

Modern fairy tale.

I was waiting for this game for a long, long time. I tend to stay away from early access so the wait was even more painful but finally here it is! And what a marvelous gem people from Dead Mage gave us. From the moment you start a game and hear a top notch voice over (Bastion-style) which is with you through the whole story it feels like opening a long lost and loved book. Every thing here is top notch: tight and responsive controls, feeding of story bits to the player smartly tied to death mechanic (it's a rogulike so expect to die... a lot), music and, oh my god, pixel art. What Dead Mages have done is nothing short of masterpiece. The amount of detail is astonishing - everything from design to animation - hence the lont wait. This is truly one of the best games this year and not even because of above reasons. It's the story of a Bergson family, their relations, hardships and the world around told through main hub area (tip - conversations family members have are on a loop so dont worry you miss something between missions, make sure you take a look around the house, all conversations compliment each other in some way), very well written books, journals and gameplay itself for example: you dont feel like you are a lone hero in the family, game adapts to which one of delightfully different characters you pick and you meet other family members doing their quests in the dungeons with short stories of their own. And I haven't even talked about sidequests, minigames (with nods to modern popculture) and easter eggs. This game is perfect for a cold evening where you cover yourself with warm blanket with munchies and a cup of coccoa and play. Cause thats what this game ultimately is - one the best modern fairy tales of old! :) Awesome stuff Dead Mage, just awesome!

Bergsonowie niewspółczesna rodzina :)

Gra całkowicie mnie zaskoczyła, w pozytywnym senie ! Generalnie nie przepadam za ragalikami (sic!), ale tutaj, pomimo swej prostoty, historia mnie zainteresowała, kolejna rzecz to grafika - fakt pikselowa, nie każdemu to odpowiada, ale w tym przypadku doskonale pasuje do klimatu gry. Rozpisanie scenariusza gdzie mamy możliwośc sterowanie rożnymi postaciami, a tym samym umiejętnościami, majstersztyk. Bardzo intuicyjne sterowanie, po kilku chwilach pace same odnajdują własciwe klawisze + oczywiscie myszka. Można wymieniać inne zalety, natomiast dla mnie w grach chodzi o jedną i podstawową rzecz - miodnośc i chęć dalszego grania... a to znajdziecie w CoM i o to chodzi :). Polecam.

This is how it should be done

An ARPG with rougelite elements. (Or a rougelite with ARPG elements?) + lovely pixelart + balanced difficulty + multiple playstyles throught different characters and items + a story that is very well told This game definitely has the 'One more run.' / 'Where did the time go?' feeling. If you usually aren't a rougelite player give this a try.
