Dead Cells

A stunning rogue-like platformer with Metroidvania elements, Dead Cells features real-life battles between the hero and ever-changing castle levels. Our hero is a creature who is trying to get out of the castle's maze. He will try again and again to deal with constantly generated opponents. But in random places on the map you will find many weapons with random characteristics. The character improves with each new death. You will have about 100 abilities and unique characteristics that will help you cope with a series of changing monsters. The main character's weapon will constantly change, as will his appearance - he takes on the appearance of killed enemies. For example, you will be able to carry two weapons with you - a blade and a turret. And replace auxiliary items with throwing knives and grenades. Each enemy drops cells. At the end of the level you level up your skills on these “cells”. They seem insignificant, but they help a lot during the game. One of them is the ability to drink a health potion more often. Secondly, for example, your poisoned blade will deal more damage by 3% of the poison. As the developers say, most monsters can be simply avoided, but the truly difficult battles are with bosses, which are made according to the system from Dark Souls: the larger the boss, the more powerful his blow. Although you will still die from one hit. Constant improvements to weapons and character, leveling up abilities that carry over from level to level: this is the whole essence of a metroidvania. Gradually, the explored locations will take on a familiar appearance - this means that the world is no longer randomly generated, and you are approaching the end of the stage.
