About this game:
DemonCrawl is a puzzle roguelite that combines the addicting gameplay of Minesweeper with hundreds of unique items, stages, and abilities!
“If you don’t know the rules of minesweeper, I apologise” you should probably apologise to the people who do know the rules...
"I should probably know this pattern". That moment the pattern is "logic".
OMG yes, please.. my poor head hurts after watching that...
Sick burn
There is nothing like watching Northernlion confidently click on a monster square
"This one can't be a monster." *click*
*Monster roars*
Yea....nothing is better than that sweet sweet sound of failure.
I want to see NL play chess
I'm screaming :D
At least he picked up
Especially in the tutorial. That he already completed. Immediately after bragging that hes a Minesweeper god.
*presses a bomb*
"Well if it's not there, then it must be here."
IT IS THERE. YOU JUST PRESSED IT.
He's pulling a [politician] move; immediately stating that what just happened did not, in fact, happen.
While watching this i sometimes forget that clicked monsters are still monsters and should be counted as bomb.
My man's gotta spend some more lonely afternoons at grandma's
I have to say, he is doing the best advertising possible. Within 2 minutes of bad play, he had me buying the game...
Same
ahh the "no stupid let me show you how it works" buy. I've done plenty of those. ^_^
SuperWolfkin I’ve bought slay the spire, ultimate chicken horse, fallout and more just from watching nl. Making the watcher think “goddammit, I can do better than him” is his greatest ability
@@MaximilianWWW only two things I want from a video on video gaming a) I'd like to keep my ear drums please, no shouting at me like I'm a 3year old with the attention span of a 1 year old (I love Stumpt for instance but they have... 25% of this problem) and b) not experts, watching people speed run the game in 12 minutes or less is cool but it doesn't help me decide how much fun I will have with it. I like to see people mess up and fail and then get past it.
Ffs i am 20 minutes in and about to buy. Him clearing that caves level gave me a bit of faith
A game that requires the player to take their time and be methodical, all the while paying attention.
Our Egg is doomed.
not even slow, he just sucks at paying the slightest bit of attention
Egg-cellent...
@@nickerlas7008 fix't
He drinks too much coffee for this shit
@HighLanderPony still weirds me out every time i see you here :3
this has to be the worst minesweeper gameplay i have ever seen
NL was a lot better with chat's help on stream, and picked up a bunch of tech. I do kind of hope that it comes back so that we can see him improve, but puzzle games don't tend to be his thing.
Since I watched the stream he did of this the other day (guess he recorded this video before that), I was going to say "no way in hell that's true," but no, this is very much even worse. He might understand the most basic concepts of the game, but he does not know how to play minesweeper.
Edit: Oh god, I only commented when he finished the tutorial, it actually gets even worse.
But you have seen it
He got better quite quickly, but the beginning was miserable
Yea....well I recall fondly as a child telling my parents that Minesweeper was not a game, just an annoying grid of stupid numbers, and Bill Gates could eat shit if he couldn't even put a basic version of pong in windows to go with solitaire. I hated that game and deleted it off every computer in my middle school with the backing of the administration who also wanted me to get rid of Paint because kids would draw penises and boobs all the time.
1:27: "I'm might be one of the greatest Minesweeper the world has ever seen"
...
5:15: "As you can tell I'm not a perfect Minesweeper player"
Thank you, I was going to make this comment if no one else had XD
somewhat tangentially though, this preeeety much encompasses why I like watching NL. He doesn't mind portraying himself with a comedic level of hubris at the slightest success, knowing he's going to screw up at some point. It's a weird sort of audacious humility, and it makes the videos funny as hell. Never change Egg.
I absolutely love that he said he might be the greatest mind of minesweeper and proceeded to be extremely bad at it.
Our egg loves to say things like this all the time. He is hilarious.
I wish I never learned how to play minesweeper.
I love you egg, but that tutorial hurt me deeply.
BUT THEN AGAIN YOU BECAME A TETRIS GOD SO LETTTTTSSSSS GOOOOOOOOOOOO
Also, space pin ball IS a rougelite
As a minesweeper lover I HATED watching him make simple mistakes 😤🤧
He starts off by hyping up how good he was supposed to be at minesweeper and proceeds to make me want to rip the skin off my face.
Well there is pinball metroidvania - Yoku's Island Express.
This already looks like something that we’ll be seeing again.
Edit: oh god I hope we don’t see this again, NL took damage in the tutorial.
It just took him a minute to polish off the rust, after around 15 minutes he stops doing terribly.
@@godlyvex5543 then he just does badly?
@@Hellbindi Yes
"I'm sorry if you don't know the rules of minesweeper"
Ryan, you can't just flex your minesweeper skills and then do this kind of stuff
He actually ascends after 20 minutes though, literally how
As someone who likes minesweeper, I have decided to buy this game to rectify NL's mistakes.
Please father don't be mad i love you but those plays they're very sick
Me every time NL tries a neat looking game... it's so infuriating - the first plays of him in slay the spire literally forced me to buy the game because i couldn't wrap my head around his misplays.
I think his gameplay sold me on it harder than anything else
As a potential buyer, does it auto open by dual mouse clicks if the number is satisfied already?
Why would you ever buy this game if you like minesweeper? It never gets harder than the original minesweeper, so the items you get are glorified resin.
Yeah I really want to buy this game
Wait at 5:00 did NL click the monster then try to suss out where the monster he just clicked was hiding?
He certainly did.
I read the comments before watching so I knew I was in for some egg plays... But even with that expectation I was still floored but that one.
"As you can tell I am not a perfect minesweeper player."
I came to the comments just to find someone who points that out lol
that was my gamer moment of the year
I'm only 12 minutes in and every single "guess" NL has made was absolutely deducible NotLikeThis
Seems like a fun game though, thanks for sharing.
It gets better, to be fair. He's not bad after 20-30 minute mark. Great game, though.
Yea but if you guess right it's both faster and cooler. I can relate.
@@HighLanderPonyYT I can respect that
@@symeon5518 Thx for feeling it!
Egg I love you but this video hurt me physically
this is the type of game NL would be really good at if he just actually stopped to think instead of pretending to stop and actually just filling airtime with nonsense.... not that i mind the nonsense that's the best part
Thanks for the company egg father
Edit: cursed plays
Yo egg this is a good series. Don't stop trying things.
But also it'd be nice to go back and to a bit more on some of the gems you find, I for one would love seeing more of nova drift.
Honestly pretty much all of the "NL tries" have been winners IMO, there's just too many great games for him to make a series for everything.
But personally I prefer the longer form series so I agree I'd like to see him pick a good one and stick with it for a while.
its great, i hope he expands on some of them too, but im glad he has been trying so many good games and that steam fixed their discovery system
After watching this video I am now convinced I am the Jesus Christ of minesweeper.
*steps on a monster*
WELL SINCE IT CAN'T BE HERE...
"If you dont know the rules to minesweeper I apologize" -the egg, apologizing to himself
I could happily watch a series of Northernlion confidently clicking where there "has to not be a monster" over and over. It's total slapstick comedy.
How is the average watch time of his videos only 15 minutes? I listen to this man talk at least 2 hours a day, usually much more. I don’t even watch anymore, I just put my phone in my pocket and listen.
Game: One of these 3 tiles is a monster, as indicated by the 1 square
Egg: Clicks on monster square
Also egg: "Okay, that must mean this other one is the monster" *flags safe square*
As soon as I saw this, I said the exact same thing to myself, “I am the greatest Minesweeper player in the world!”
Bought game, played 7 hours straight away. Addicted. So much depth.
Please put up more videos. 🙏
EDIT: I am not the greatest minesweeper player.
I like the aesthetics of the game and I absolutely love nl, but it hurts so much to watch
edit: it gets a little better actually
This person sits upon a throne of lies
It does in fact get better. But, ""I might be one of the best Minesweeper players the world has ever seen,"
then dying on the second stage doesn't help things XD
Enters shop : I just wanna buy some apples !!! I laughed more than I should at this...
I've joked before that they'd turn anything into a Roguelite given the chance...but Minesweeper?
At least it's not Hearts the Roguelite
Minesweeper is also an .io game.
It's a good game. It just needs some balancing.
You had me at "A minesweeper roguelite"
The first stage of minesweeper made me facepalm but so quietly that I was just caressing my face in amazement and horror. I love you egg.
"I was an Only child. I am the best Minesweeper player ever."
30... seconds... later... *takes damage in tutorial*
IQ lowering by 10 points with every minute of this video
I would watch more of this... it's strangely relaxing...
You are a brave man, playing Minesweeper in front of people. Especially TH-cam. Hats off sir, and great find on this game!
Has a timer counting down to his doom "Hey this item cuts my timers in half!" *Click*
This is worse play than dicey... Great looking game tho
Never has a video hurt my souls as much as this. Yet, still I watch.
Not gonna lie, NL... I would watch more of this. I don't know if that sets a dangerous precedent, but go for it, my dude.
NL: I am the greatest minesweeper player of all time
[x] Doubt
starts first level "im one of the best minesweeper players ever" at end of first level "its been nine years since i last played"
Solitaire rogulelite/battle royale when?
Be the change you want to see in the world
"Solitairica" is what you're looking for
There's an amazing Solitaire roguelite called Solitairica! Give it a shot, it's fun
@@ficsortz Thank you!
calls himself the greatest minesweeper player this world has ever seen and then immediately fails the tutorial
love you nl
1:24 "You think i don't know how to play minesweeper." Clearly
“It’s not innovative dude it’s just minesweeper.”
“Yea well you’re buying 9 FPS games a year.”
I feel attacked....
Love ya NL
As someone who dedicated more hours to minesweeper than work in highschool I think this is a must for me. Especcially after watching egg man fail at it hard
The man lied about being good at minesweeper. He's concerned about a block next to a one space that has a mine next to it.
Will be picking this game up! Thanks for playing all these different game egg!
I was so excited to watch him play a minesweeper dungeon crawl, then i watched him play and it hurt me
I can't watch this
17:00
NL:
and you *CANT* be
And you *MUST* be
So y-
*dies*
Thank you NL, very cool.
I love this game.
haha dude I love you. lvl "this absolutely has to be a monster" while 3 very obvious reasons why it cannot.
Video opens: Corners are always safe.
Video ends: Chooses the non-corner space and dies.
@7:22 the pain
*Egg confidently clicks on a square*
*Square turns out to be monster*
*Surprised Eggachu face*
....
This is gonna be a good series. Let’s go bois!
I hurt my intestines by too much laughing from the most basic missplays. This is great content. Well done.
Very pleased with how cracked he got when he got into the element
I'm just waiting for Minesweeper 99
I want more just so I can watch NL learn how to play minesweeper without guessing randomly on every other tile
I am in actual physical pain, thank you for the content
This chat is being brutal, my sweet egg.
Edit: now I see why...
@@TentacleShark And he *still* uploaded it. Damn NL do I love you. 😂
Holy cow, this is a fantastic game! Watching this video I immediately bought it. It get incredibly hard, but the casual mode at least removes situations where you have to guess, so good logic is enough.
Also, you can left-click and right-click on the numbers. If a number has a flags, left-click open all other cell. If all free cells are opens, right-click puts flag on all the other cells. This speeds the game up considerably.
a tip for the world's blindest egg. If you left click on a cell that already has all its surrounding monsters flagged, it will automatically solve all surrounding cells. So if you see a 1 already touching a flagged cell click on the on again to make things easier for yourself.
Also please stream this, we need the ego boost.
I've literally never seen this much disconnect between confidence and actual skill. It's incredible
So, can we just get an audio podcast of him playing this game? I could listen to this self-commentary all day.
Jesus Christ, it hurts so much. Please egg father, please.
I can't tell you are asking for more or not, with how kinky the fans are calling him daddy you never know
We need more of this game....
"Fortune favors the bald"
incredible
Hexcells is minesweeper but guaranteed to be able to solve logically without guessing
That's nice. The blind clicks were very annoying.
wolfspam ye the occasional guess has always been my least favorite part of minesweeper although I suppose it's offset by the hp mechanics
and Tametsi too!
This is legitimately the most painful video I've watched of NL.... which means its a banger... Make this a series @Northernlion
I don’t know how to play minesweeper. After watching this, I’d like to learn.
It was shaky at the start, then it got worse, but he pulled us out of a nosedive torwards the end. Make it a series Lion.
I love when you can tell NL really likes the game he's playing. Makes for a nice change from Isaac.
Thanks for company as always egg, love the game even with miss plays was super fun to watch i suck at minesweeper so better than i would have done tbh
I have literally no idea how to play minesweeper, but I can tell that this is absolutely horrendous. Love it!
This was surprisingly fun to watch. Post 15 minute crew calling in what what.
I wish I could look into eggs brain to understand wtf he is thinking
This game looks awesome! The only problem I’ve had with minesweeper is having to guess sometimes and this game absolutely solves that issue by giving you items and extra lives. Such a cool idea!
Possibly the best ad for this game, watching NL play badly compels me to buy so hard.
This was a lot of fun to watch, hopefully there is more!
Egg Man I know this was only a try but I really hope you come back to this game, they're still updating it to this day.
Northernlion: clicks on enemy tile
Also northernlion: so that's not an enemy ....
>Plays tutorial
>"Yes I want to learn how to play DemonCrawl"
>Seconds later
>"You think I don't know how to play minesweeper?"
"This absolutely has to be a monster." clicks the cell
The next level plays
Beautiful ending
Straight up, thank you NL you legit helped me understand mine sweeper.
I would actually like to watch more of this. NL's brain moves much faster than mine at minesweeper so even if he makes a mistake it's just like "Hey seemed like a good idea to me at the time too"
Another game I have to get now so I can play it better...damn it NL, you're the ultimate salesman
ngl I'd watch a 100 episode series of this just cause its so relaxing
Lol the absolute confidence when he selects the correct tile. Then the exact same absolute confidence when selecting a monster tile haha.
watching NL blunder his way through minesweeper was amazing
I want this as a series more than anything else
This was so much fun to watch! I hope we see NL play some more of this in the future
i can't believe this egg is going to make me buy frigging minesweeper just to have a cathartic experience from watching him botch it so much
I works love for you turn this have into a series. Fast mine sweeping is a marvel to behold
I don't care what anyone says, I love watching you play this and please continue to do so
"I might be the best minesweeper player ever"
takes damage on the first mine that requires thinking
ok this video hurts
Definitely getting this game for me and my brother. Love seeing nl genuinely enjoying himself in these different games lately.
I has been so long since I laughed this hard watching someone playing.
Would love a series of this. I enjoy the gameplay pretty much :)
