What can not be said about the alternate characters, reminiscent of specialized lifeboats from Dungeon of the Endless – their effects and limitations (throw bombs, avoid piles of gold or not fight at all) are unique and allow you to look at the familiar process in a new way, but still overcome the challenges for some tombs are much easier. Enemies, artifacts, altars, secrets and other joys of the “adventurer” are in bulk, and each element is thought out to the smallest detail, unlike the others, and complements the balance without breaking it. Perfectly debugged mechanics attracts to the catacombs again and again, and after another ridiculous death (“Well, I knew that the dragon descends just like that!”), the overworked finger itself presses on “restart”. In a way, the rules are a continuous triumph of minimalism. The combat system is also elementary: just four keys are enough to play, which are responsible for moving. Of the parameters – a few hearts of health and a wallet, no role-playing tricks. In addition to hits, you can use a set of three spells: healing, which restores 1 HP heart freezing, which causes all opponents to freeze on the screen fiery, flying horizontally and cleaning a certain area from evil spirits!Īt first glance, everything in the dungeons is as usual: chests, treasures, monsters with merchants. Otherwise, the passage will seem archaic and ridiculous. The strategy of combat requires the gamer to have sensitive hearing and the ability to feel the rhythm. And green bubbles – run from side to side! Other enemies include iconic cave dwellers such as cave bats, stone golems, and snakes.

Let’s say bluish absorber bubbles jump over the cells and freeze between separate blows. The enemies themselves also take into account the music and act in accordance with it. The further you go and the more progress you make, the faster the pace becomes. The most interesting aspect of the gameplay is that your current set of movements and combat skills is rigidly tied to the tempo of the playing music (soundtrack). Necrodancer is a 2D top-down rpg that can be played using the keyboard and controller. Over 40 new music tracks have been added, including vocals from Mega Ran as “Fortissimol”!Īll-new soundtrack remix by OverClocked ReMixĪdditional DLC remixes from FamilyJules, A_Rival, Girlfriend Records and Virt!
