Hell Miners

⠀

‎

"Hell Miners" is a garbage mobile app that's been dumped on Steam for god knows what reason. Does my gaming rig look like an iPhone to these guys? Anyway this is dumber than Angry Birds, you just use a drag and fling mechanic to punt around a mobile app arena to collect (probably flipped) sprites. What a time to be alive. This is a mobile app... it doesn't matter if this was ported to PC before or after the app store release, or even if this didn't even make it to the app stores. This is built for the absolutely lowest of all gaming platforms and must be judged as such... it's not going to give you a cutting edge PC gaming experience. That alone is enough to disqualify this from any recommendation. We don't spend thousands building gaming rigs so that we can pretend they're iPhones and play iPhone games and mobile apps. The graphics are lacklustre because this was designed for mobile phones, not gaming PCs. Whenever a product is designed to run tolerably on 5 year old iPhones, it's obviously not going to come close to the minimum quality standards that PC gaming enthusiasts except on their cutting edge gaming rigs. One more, mobile devs have made gaming worse for everyone…

It appears simple but there is a skill to it. It becomes addicting and have found myself having 'just one more try' which turns into another 5 attempts! The enemies have enough variation and the random generation of the level makes for a refreshed route each time which prevents it become tedious. The soundtrack fits very well into the games vibe and I find myself humming along whilst playing. I think the focus on having a good soundtrack was the right move, it becomes memorable. Kudos to the team, i'll be first on the leaderboard one day, maybe. (probably not)

Great game play loop and nice progression with the unlock system, always leaves you wanting to play just 1 game more. The visuals and soundtrack are awesome!

Surprisingly addictive, it's been my go to game when waiting for queues to pop and when the discord can't decide what to play. Pros: - Progression is rewarding and the upgrades are worth it - Big fan of the monster art style - Music slaps and sticks in my head - No ads or pay to win nonsense (a welcomed change of pace for a free to play game) Cons: - Caster Demon on a god-run - Levels get very grindy after 25 unless that's your thing - Music slaps and sticks in my head...
