恶魔迷宫 | Evil Maze

Evil Maze, developed by ZOV Game Studio, is a pixel-art action RPG that blends dungeon crawling, resource management, and a touch of old-school charm. Originally released in 2016, it may not have made waves in the mainstream scene, but it has quietly gained a niche audience—especially among fans of classic-style indie games that don’t hold your hand. You play as a captured female soldier trapped in a sinister labyrinth full of traps, monsters, and puzzles. The objective is simple: survive, explore, and escape. But this is easier said than done. With every step forward, you’ll face new dangers—and limited resources. The real challenge lies in strategic movement and resource management. Keys are scarce, enemies hit hard, and health pickups are few and far between. One bad decision could mean starting over. Combat is real-time, and while it may seem simple at first, positioning and timing become increasingly important as difficulty ramps up. Randomly generated mazes offer decent replay value, although the enemy types and level design can start to feel repetitive after several runs. Evil Maze embraces a retro 2D pixel aesthetic. The environments are moody and claustrophobic, with d…

A censored, low-effort dungeon crawler with reused assets and repetitive gameplay

This was a game in my wishlist purgatory for years and i finnaly decided to pull the trigger on it. The game launched in a 640x480 window on my 1080P monitor and refused to go any bigger. This was an absolute pain in the butt as changing the monitor resolution just scaled the game down making it impossible to see. I went down the rabbit hole of replacing the game engine with a modern reimplementation. This failed to missing dependencies. Because of the antiquated engine and the no modern resolution support i would strongly suggest passing unless it is free. Now as for the gameplay... the controler support is an absolute cluster. The buttons the game was telling me to press didnt match any of my controlers including my era correct Logitech. One would extect Start would get one into the correct menu for equipment, save, magic, exit and so on. Nope! It is the B button on the Xbox/Nintendo controler. X is attack and sometimes accept but also sometimes exit. Y is also accept enter and interact. In menu the Dpad is used yet moving around on the map is left analogue stick. the left analogue stick movement is touchy and i found myself moving to areas when i didnt want to. …

Yesterday I lost 5 hours of my life because I got hooked on the game as soon as I started. At first, you focus on killing enemies while realizing that some can't be killed or that you're missing keys to unlock areas. You keep progressing, collecting orbs that boost your base stats and opening chests, and suddenly you discover there are secrets. You go back to previous levels and examine every wall, every pixel of the map, and keep advancing with your strategy. I've had a lot of trouble on the Steam Deck trying to add abilities to the skill bar and create the key bindings. I really enjoyed it. I was just one level away from finishing the game and I don't think it has much replay value, but I really liked it.

Just for easy achievements and cards
