Hardly playable. A cheap knock-off of Dead Cells with none of the fluidity and variety that makes it fun. Artstyle, creature design can be very good but the environments are just sticks and stones. I hope I'm never put in a situation where I'm supposed to play this game again.2 found this helpful
Surprisingly compelling take on Dead Cells. It suffers from all the things that ultimately bugged me about Dead Cells (runs can take a long time, exploring every inch of every level can be tedious, the combat feeling somewhat limited in terms of movesets), but there's just something about Getsufumaden that I keep coming back to. Some of it is the aesthetics, with graphics and music that go hand-in-hand in terms of creating a mystical ukiyo-e demon world, but the moment-to-moment combat is what really does it. Every fight requires focus as you figure out how to squeeze your limited moveset into killing stuff that tends to have some combination of better positioning and some dominating abilities that force different approaches. Throw that into mixed mobs and the fights end up feeling fairly tactical. On top of that, the difficulty scaling is done well, where higher difficulties add new levels with new enemies, and new moves to old enemies, forcing new approaches. The net result is that I actually look forward to unlocking higher difficulties because they refresh old content in ways that aren't just dodge skill checks.1 found this helpful
GetsuFumaDen: Undying Moon is one of the worst Roguelike i have ever played it's one of the slow is games to unlock skills and some of the skills are random drops and the skills upgrade cost are higher then they should be.
Art is gorgeous combat is weapon dependent, there are parries and backstabs, but it can get very repetitive depending on weapon, some enemies just force you into a specific playstyle according to what you are using, you have 2 main weapon slots so probs not an issue but that makes half weapons not interesting for me. I have not heard much about this game at all, didnt even know it was a roguelike (dont remember why I even have this). the loop is split in "do I think I can beat the game or do I have to go back to not lose all the materials I got" which at the start probably means beating 3-4 levels and going back as you are focused on improving skills and what not. Easy difficulty makes it easier to grind but you cant get the ending with it overall, was fine, not sure I would complete it though, I dont think there is much else to see for me besides the last boss which eh.
Game doesn't tell you how to use the souls. Got stuck in this game for a long time. Now I know how to use the souls haha. I can already see the meta progression.
Didn't expect to be so fun, but the boss at the last stage is kinda flop :(
