Underrated Metroidvania-Roguelike
Dead Cells is easily one of the most underrated indie games on the Switch. The gameplay is fantastic. With its Hack 'n Slash-like combat, you carve your way through various interesting and unique levels in this metroidvania-roguelike. Each level is randomly generated, tied to a set of variables such as which enemies can spawn and which items can be found. After completing a level, you reach a safe area where you can obtain weapons, skills, and more by exchanging your cells with the cellkeeper. To get cells, you have to kill monsters. This way, you become permanently stronger. The incredibly fun gameplay is supported by the beautiful pixel graphics and great soundtrack. Dead Cells is a very enjoyable game for fans of Metroidvania games and roguelikes.
In addition to the base game, Dead Cells has two paid DLC packs. The Rise of the Giant DLC adds 2 new levels, new weapons, new outfits, and a new boss fight. The Bad Seed DLC adds 3 new levels, new weapons, new outfits, minibosses, and a new boss fight.
