Crypt of the NecroDancer
Over the past several months, I’ve had the pleasure of testing an alpha of Crypt of the NecroDancer , a retro styled rhythm based roguelike.
A what?
Crypt of the NecroDancer is a procedural dungeon crawler where the player and enemies movie on the beats of the game’s music tracks. That may sound like an eclectic mix, but it works. It works really well.
You play as Cadence, a firey young woman who, against the better judgement of her elders, descends into the NecoDancer’s crypt in search of answers. The intro cinematic shows Cadence prone, her head against a blood smeared rock whilst her narration says, “I don’t know how I survived that fall.”

Crypt of the Necrodancer is a timeless masterpiece of an Indie game that never seems to bore me. I have bought this game on 3 separate platforms, and I don’t believe that I wasted a single bit of time spent in it.
Crypt is a very interesting and fun fusion of both rhythm and puzzle, while presenting itself as a dungeon-crawler. The controls are simple, but the skill ceiling is so insanely high for something so surface-level in appearance. Missing a button press on a note resets a stacking “Coin Multiplier” which rewards you for treating this game with precision, taking damage also does this. There is no such thing as “Mandatory Damage” in this game, you are perfectly able to control yourself in order to avoid haphazard conditions, and every single enemy has a pattern or “Tell” that indicates their movements, attack patterns, and the sort.

This game is a fun “rat in a maze” style solo player game. You use various colored discs to move about and defeat enemies! If you like this style of game, then it’s a MUST PLAY! It was made by ONE INDIE DEV! Huge Kudos to the dev known as TANK! I played the first level here, https://youtu.be/vrx9mMJUvgQ

Dark Treasury
The game interested me with its simplicity and beauty of the pixel art. Since I was a kid, I loved playing games like Dark Treasury. This game plunged me into the past, where I experienced the same feeling as then.
The game is good. Pixel style graphics, just like menus. Soundtrack pleasing to the ears. Simple controls. The levels are very difficult, where you have to sweat to reach the goal. Pharma in the game for several hours of play. I played for two dozen hours myself and never got bored.
I advise you to ponastalgize those who also miss such games.

I bought this game not so long ago, but I already liked it. When I first entered the game, I really liked the menu design, which is simple and attractive at the same time. Pixel graphics that delight the eye, simple controls, high-quality sounds. That’s why I loved this game.
You may ask, what is this game about? This game is about war, whose mission is to go to the endless world of dangers and adventures. you will be waiting for a whole bunch of very dangerous enemies, unrealistically difficult levels.
