Tower Hunter: Erza’s Trial

Not a bad rogue-lite but it has plenty of issues. The combat and map design seem very inspired by Igavania/Bloodstained games although it's not a Metroidvania but a randomized, level-based rogue-lite dungeon. There is some minor exploration within each level but once you leave a level, you can't return. The rogue-lite progression comes in the form of crystals that you collect and can use to upgrade your stats. Also, the music is pretty jammin'.
Some of the negative points include a translation on par with Google Translate. In fact, it probably is Google Translate. Not that there's a lot of story but some of the item descriptions can be confusing if you don't think on them for a bit. Also, just general indie game jank. If you're expecting Castlevania, you will be disappointed. Everything works, it's just not quite as polished.
Overall, set your expectations low and it's not bad but I can't highly recommend it.

Not the greatest side scroll platformer but engaging enough and good for killing an hour or so.
Visually the game looks good making it easy on the eyes as you go back to grind a few past levels because you are too week to stand a chance against higher level boss.
I great pick up when it is on sale.

It's like the poor, illiterate, cousin of Bloodstained. It's very fun (especially with a controller), enemy and weapon variety is good, customization is good. Haven't encountered any bug yet. Enemy variety is ok, levels are beautiful and level design is good. The major downside, English translation is extremely bad, most of the stuff in the game doesn't make any sense but that doesn't affect the experience :) Can't say that it's not worth the full price, on sale it's definitely worth a try.

This plays a lot like Dead Cells, and that's a good thing for me. I wish there were a few more sensible attacks, like just an "up" or "down" attack,
The equipment is really great and everything is really pretty at all levels of "pretty."
I haven't found it very compelling though. Like, it's fun so far, but not "omg I can't put it down."
They need to re-code the descriptions because a pretty good number of the weapon text just cuts off. Also, please get another English speaker to help clean up the phrasing, this is so rough.
I recommend this if it's on sale, otherwise no.

This game is fun. I have a game going on Rogue where if you die you start at the beginning. You do keep most of your stuff though. You lose weapons and spells. I also have one on easy mode where when you die you lose nothing and just go back to the last resting place you visited. I am the first to admit I normally do not like these games but this ones pretty ok. Plus it was on sale for 9 bucks so why not?

Is it anime Dead Cells without the pixelated beauty? Sure, sure it is. But if you've played hundreds of hours fighting through the Clock Tower and killing Mother Tick sometimes you just want some down time with Dead Cells easy mode with an anime bunny girl fighting with a long spear. It's definitely worth it on a sale.

I'm not very far in the game yet, but I like it a lot. It's like Castelvania meets the Roguevania goodness of Dead Cells and Rogue Legacy, but a bit easier and less punishing than those games. The atmosphere is VERY similar to Castlevania, and the graphics compare actually not that badly to Bloodstained. Fun, if basic, monster design, great platforming gameplay, overall a good time.
Here are some critiques:
- There are some comments that Erza's skull sidekick makes that are in bad taste... kinda rapey, but not too egregious. Don't know why they felt the need to include that.
- Randomization of the areas is very very light. Mostly it follows a map that seems to be 80% the same with some little variations. The things that are randomized are the loot drops and monster placement, I think. It works well enough but a bit more randomization wouldn't hurt.
Honestly, that's about it. It's a fun little game. There appears to be a ton of levels, and I've only gotten partway through two of them in over 2 hours of gameplay. I'm pretty impressed. Definitely worth this sale price for fans of Rogue Legacy, Bloodstained, or Dead Cells, but don't expect it to be necessarily better than any of those games. It depends on your taste. I can definitely see myself alternating between them all pretty often.
