The game has potential but needs some improvements!

This is a masterpiece as far as free Steam games go. You can wall climb, double jump, throw shurikens, dash through enemies and become camouflaged by transforming. Lots of levels and a cool overall design with some upgrades and things of that nature. You have to collect scrolls that are hidden on the levels so you can't run through the whole thing. I like the violent story and there's even a final boss.

Rage Simulator Platformer/Combat game where you throw Shurikens and constantly run into multi-step traps designed to make you lose your ♥♥♥♥ or laugh (guess that depends on you ;) No, it is truly something to behold, how annoying this game can be. You gotta see it to believe it. After you level up all of your stuff (I recommend doing Lives first), the game is quite fun, albeit still frustrating AF. This game is designed to piss you off, no question about it. If you can't take a bit of frustration, skip it. If you can handle a bit of screaming at the monitor from time to time, and mastering the controls/traps, it eventually becomes REALLY FUN! AND FREE! All you have to lose is your time, I'd say give it a shot! 8/10

Seriously loving this chill stealthy ninja game, it's got a great balance of difficulty and grace that lets you be challenged without ever raging out lol, it's in a weird way kinda like a mix between ninja gaiden and Limbo. UPDATE, another 2 hours in and i just made it to the second of four worlds at 15 levels a pop and it really ramps up, this game is even more intense than i thought and i aint mad, super clever nuances added at well paced timingsx make this steadily progressive in a perfect rate and the new ways to get caught by unseen traps doesnt upset me but makes me marvel at the ingenuity of it all, i havent ran acroos any bugs, and believe they have either been fixed or arent bugs but things people assumed were but they really hadnt figured out a nuance they missed for example the shooting off the side of something is actually meant to be a technique of the ninja and the menu problem is the way it looks makes you assume you need to push left or select when in fact its all as simple as pushing up or down, this game is full of things that you have to learn on your own but once you figure out everything you realize there are no bugs and this game is actually very brilliant and…

EN+RU review. My first negative review in which I strongly do not recommend this game to anyone! It is terrible from any side - full of bugs, an absolutely crooked port obviously from mobile phones, terrible character control, strange placement of game buttons, and reverse incomprehensible control of the menu and pause... Everything is bad in this game, the plot - there is none, the control is mega crooked, the level design is terrible, irritation from constant death hundreds of times from a pixel touch to a thorn or spike, the upgrade and pumping system is terrible... Do not waste your time on this game under any circumstances, I spent 8+ hours of my life for you, so that you, using my example, simply bypassed 'this', even despite the fact that it is free! ======================================================================= Мое первое негативное ревью в котором я крайне не рекомендую никому эту игру! Она ужасна с какой стороны не посмотри - полно багов, абсолютно кривой порт очевидно с мобильных телефонов, ужасное управлении персонажем, странное расположении игровых кнопок, и реверсивной непонятное управление меню и паузой... В этой игре плохо все, сюжет - его нет, управление …

Games like Borderlands 3: guns that roll, trees that branch

Games like Borderlands 3 have to do two things at once: roll a new gun every few minutes and make a skill tree worth planning. These manage both, and one asks you to craft instead.

Games like Dragon Age 2: one city, ten years, three acts

Games like Dragon Age 2 are hard to find because almost no RPG keeps you in one city while it rots. These come close, from Neketaka to the streets of Serene.

Games like Remember Me, for the memory remix more than the city

Games like Remember Me, picked for the Memory Remix rather than the neon: minds you can break into, a vertical city to climb, and combos you build yourself.

Games like Noita, where the physics is the real enemy

Games like Noita for the two things it really does: spells you assemble yourself, and a simulated world that takes nobody's side. Seven picks, from a slugcat to a dwarf fortress.
