- Dead Cells is a "Roguevania" with Souls-like combat and too many influences to count. Movement and taking down baddies has never felt so good! Let's talk about it!

My Switch could use this game.
🧞♂️
k. e. Ya deff be a great game on the switch think I'm gonna grab it for mine to this and hollow knight might wait till full launch tho for dead cells tho see if there's a physical version
Dead Cells is amazing. Something you didn't mention in the video, that I absolutely love, is the Spelunky influence. There are sometimes items hidden behind doors you have to spend gold on. But you don't really HAVE to spend gold on them - you can break the door down. You get the same curse as from cursed chests, though, so be careful.
Oh, and don't break the door if it's got a heart behind it. Trust me on that one.
The heart's not worth it anyway. I'd much rather prefer a 30% damage reduction amulet or something.
Yeah true, I rarely ever get those. I found a "enemies that touch you freeze" and I think it's my favourite so far. That + shield = you take very little damage against multiple enemy setups
NO NO NO FUCK OFF DO NOT COMPARE THIS SHALLOW HACK N SLASH DISGUISED AS A ROUGE LIKE TO THE FUCKING REVOLUTION OF A VIDEO GAME THAT SINGLE HANDEDLY MADE ROUGE LIKES MAINSTREAM SPELUNKY.
GOD IM SO FUCKING TIRED OF EVERYONE CONSIDERING THIS GAME A MASTERPIECE BECAUSE IT HAS SOME NICE ART AND GAMEPLAY MASQUERADING AS AN IN DEPTH SOULSIAN LIKE GAME.
+Buzz0 Chill.
This game is at least 5x better than Spelunky. I say that because I've put at least 5x as many hours in this game as I did Spelunky, mostly because Spelunky is a clunky piece of garbage with an uninspired art-style and a fully-random level design that fucks you over at every turn.
can you play Hollow Knight? I've played it for ~75 hours and it's really fun. it's a metroidvania
Michelle Kavanaugh can be pretty difficult in some areas too though, only 6 or so hours but still loving it
David Hutcheson I'm almost at 100%, and yea it's difficult, but so worth the 20$
Michelle Kavanaugh $9 at the moment :9
David Hutcheson oh wow. so worth it.
Just bought Hollow Knight and Dead Cells for Steam Sales
No guys, seriously. You NEED to play Dead Cells! I have been playing this game a ton since it came out and I am in love! This is an early access game that feels more complete than most final release indie titles. At $15 this game is a STEAL! And I think it's on sale right now for the Steam Summer Sale too, so none of you have excuses!
excellent video , I've been playing all your recommendations since a while ago , no regrets at the moment, keep up the good work.
Awesome video Snoman! This really looks like a cool game although I'll probably wait until it's released to try all of the content at once. Keep it up!
My favorite combo is Nutcracker + Fire Brand because it plays super safe. If you can just toss fire brands then you should just kill that way, otherwise Nutcracker stuns opponents with its first hit so even though it's slow you can still get its high damage 3-hit combo off before it wakes up. usually killing whatever you hit. It has a huge hitbox that doesn't stop for the first enemy like many other attacks, so it's good against crowds and fliers too.
Nobody will waste his time reading this long ass comment
Would Rogue Legacy be another example of a "Roguevania"? (Incidentally, RL is also strongly inspired by SotN)
Rogue Legacy was likely one of the inspirations of Dead Cells. But Rogue Legacy doesn't necessarily have permanent upgrades such as runes, you can upgrade your equipment after each run but there's nothing stopping you from reaching an area due to lack of an upgrade, everything is already open and there's very little backtracking which metroidvanias are known for.
Fun fact: This game was originally a sequel(or maybe prequel) to a previous work by Motion Twin. That work being called Die2Nite, though it's called Hordes in France.
It's a pretty intellectually focused, and unique game, a real pain to explain in text. Unfortunately it's not been updated, and some basic game maintenance has been neglected for a long while. The community isn't very strong anymore. Though you will mostly find fervent fans there at this time(and overly quiet people playing a social game, what's their deal?).
I stopped playing because a griefer was town jumping for awhile, and another player was pestering me for advice, and help editing his fanfic, and then didn't go through with any of it. Also again, it's a social game; not worth playing if you don't get friends. I didn't exactly make any friends, and eventually I gave up waiting on anyone caring. But hey, you can always check the forums to get you and your friends organized if you want.
In retrospect the griefer probably would have been stopped if someone bothered to contact the mods, but what matters is he sucked all the fun out.
don't forget the awesome soundtrack! first heard about this from Demod XD
"Now of course Dead Cells has a lot of rogue-lite aspects, but not everything resets when you die. It has a little bit of Rogue Legacy influence.."
Implying Rogue legacy isn´t the definition of Rogue-lite.
This comment "Killed" my brain cells
The definition of rogue like is the game named"rogue". I thought that would be easy to figure out from the name.
Very well done video. This has peaked my interest. If I have any more recommendation I suggest you check out Oneshot.
Metroguevania!!! 😊
A mixture of both metroidvania and roguelike
Tried the game at launch. Was okay. Replayed today. Damn so much more content. Devs are really working on that game, love it !
I freaking love dead cells
Its no longer early access now!
Changes include replacing time doors with certain challenges, enemy design, and other ways to access levels
5:30 - it got better.
im confused. my family, friends and coworkers all tell me i need to stop playing Dead Cells...
Right now I'm hooked on Monster Slayers, a roguelike card game RPG that's more fun than it sounds. But I have been watching Dead Cells develop via twitter since before early access, and am rooting for it. Will definitely pick it up after Early Access is up.
I was on the fence, but this video really sold me on the game
It looks gorgeous
"I was surprised to see that it included MetroidVania elements as well."
Acknowledges that the game titles itself as a "RogueVania"
Cites Symphony of the Night for being a clear influence on the game.
smdh sno.
hi there! I just stubled upon your channel and really dig your reviews and "you have to play"s!
I'm thinking about getting salt and sanctuary and wonder if you would recommend it. I'm new to the genre and hyperlight drifter after 7 hours already brought me to the point where I wanted to try out a new game :P
nevermind, I bought Salt and Sanctuary and oh boy this is exactly up my alley to the point I wasnt even aware that a game could suck me in that butally and nice! 27 hours in, 14 in my second playthrough and I'm only one third through the game!!
You have no idea how happy you would make me if you did a video involving Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic. PLEASE
I usually avoid Early Access Games b/c I don't know what I'm in for (*cough* We Happy Few). But I think you've convinced me. I'll get it soon enough. I love Metroidvanias, and rogue-like games are also a nice plus.
I'm really glad it's coming to consoles, I spent a lot of time on PC, it's just so good.
So... this went on to become one of the best games I have played. Congratulations to the developers.
After seeing this I bought it thanks for the heads up 😄
fxcking finally!! its coming out on consoles august 7th :D so hyped to play this game!
I WOULD LOVE TO! But the mac version comes out when it's released.
Have you played Flinthook yet? It's got some Rogue Legacy influence and it's great.
I have 2 suggestions
1. You need to play Oceanhorn
2. You need to play kamiko (this game costs 5 bucks)
Loved the game, introduced it to my brother, he's been practically playing it every chance he gets on the computer and won't stop talking about it.
My brother is probably the most fond of zombie shooters (like Killing Floor and Dead space), so I'm happy he took a loving to a game more about strategy and reflex and equipment management rather than passing it off as something he didn't wanna play because it lacked enough gore C: hehe

The oil skill and the fire grenade lets you put oil on the ground then set it alight

This game looks fantastic, is fantastic too, have you played Oxenfree or transistor? Both are amazing games with compelling storylines
lol you're a nerd
CALLED IT! Now, what do I win snomaN?
When I see videos on games like this I hate the fact that I don't have a gaming PC/Laptop. Eventhough I am planning on getting one in the future. I am very happy with my PS4, but I don't want to miss out on amazing games like this
Your home computer should run it really nicely, I don't have a gaming computer and it runs great.
Nicholas Haines I'll have a look at it. Thanks!
No problem ^^
Permanent death and procedural generated levels aren’t staples of rogue likes they are what defines a rogue like.
Could you please check that “Death’s Gambit” is needed to play?
This game is pretty hard though. Only reached the final boss once, but haven't been playing for that long. I love how you can't say "Therez no variety!" Because you have to unlock all the items.
I've seen a ton of critics and game academics praise this and Hollow Knight here lately. I'll have to look into it.
e;oudgjallajhosdhsh
I have this for switch. Furthest I got was the Clock Tower boss. I wonder how much I got left to progress for the final boss
I’ve gotten a little bit past the clock boss. I rarely get past the green town whose name I cannot remember. Right now I’m farming cells to get more upgrades.
Yes, but why tho.. *Plays game*
Nevermind, EVERYONE PLAY THIS GAME! But watch the video first.
nah
This game is amazingly well done.
Lol you have no friends
Dude your intro is sooooooo cooooool :3
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
is this game easy to get lost in or easy to find your way around?
hey snowman. can you play a pretty old game that i love? its a masterpiece and i really think you should make a video of it. its pokemon mystery dugeon explorers of sky
what's the difference between game direction and game design
I bet you'd like "Salt and Sanctuary" - basically, 2D Dark Souls
OO
Motion Twin still exists?? I mean, I haven't heard much about them for quite some time.
for those who don't know, Motion Twin is a french game company that had quite their successes doing internet-based games. As far as I can tell the company mostly had recognition from inside the french market, so hearing an american citing their name is just short of dream-like.
for the curious, I suggest Hammerfest, a game where you play a bomb-throwing snowman. ;-)
OMG! I want the device that were announced on the Devolver conference to be able to throw money to the screen an get this game now
I just got 60$ on steam. I was wondering what I should do with it since the summer sale is on. You convinced me to get Dead Cells.
PS. Also got Burning Blood and Rayman Legends with it. Just a note.
I think hollow knight is similar to dead cells looks amazing and I heard it plays like dead cells and dark souls check it out man only $9 with great reviews!
dammit my steam sale purchases already amount to over $200 and now I'm gonna have to buy this too
Ben Klein Get it from Bundle Stars then. It's $12.40 there compared to $14.44 on Steam.
cool intro xD
That's what Snoman looks like?
Previous runs? The abilities are reset every run.
Looks good but I have to wait for full release though. I've been scarred by early access before
lhj321 while I understand your hesitation for early access games, this game put most if not all of my worries to rest. If you are into Metroidvania games and/or Souls-like games then I still recommend picking it up. This game has more polish than most final releases. At $15-17 bucks (depending on Steam sale) it is more than worth it, especially considering that the developers have mentioned that they are considering raising the price upon final release. I don't want to make you feel pushed to make a purchase you don't want, but I have over 10 hours into this game and I haven't seen a dull moment yet, and I know that there is still so much in store (I haven't even unlocked the coffin teleport yet).
Almost half the additions in the last update was user-suggested, so they're definitely listening to the community. Some 15 hours in, I can definitely recommend it too~
Fuck yeah buy this game man, To be honest It feels complete even if it's just in early access 15€ is worth it. I bought it yesterday and couldn't stop playing that I have 11 hours in it now
Shit,..... just bought Salt&Sactuary this morning ..... *Whips out the Credit card again.
Dave Snijder
Salt and Sanctuary is amazing too! It's a child of Dark Souls and Castlevania. Go with a great sword wielding warrior to start with, you can get one fairly early on and it's a beast early game but eventually you can transmute any great sword into the Jaws of Death with one of the bosses item drops it is fucking awesome, it's a giant pair of double edged scissors!
Dead Cells >>>>> Everything else on Earth >>>>> Salt & Sanctuary.
*derisive snort
It’s really not a ‘vania tho. You can’t really back track into previous areas because everything is for the most part procedurally generated and I’m guessing you get locked out from some areas you’ve been in before... I actually went ahead and purchased shantae instead.
Dead Cells and Hyper Light Drifter looks good enough to fill the empty void that is the Dark Soul drought.
All 3 are so fucking hard but we love them for it
The thing is, that it is in early access. Even if its worth it now, I will likely not come back later when this is finished.
It looks light it's right up my alley though. I am torn. Why, game, are you doing this to me?
Welp, time to get this game.
Hope you don't regret it
Yeah, I've heared of this game^^
Tried playing Wizard of Legend? Is it worth it?
Yes.
Interested in buying Dead Cells since it is my type of game.
I just hope, that they don't nerf the Balanced Blade!
Karel Hnedkovsky, sad to say, the balance blade kinda sucks, at least imo.
CooL!
yes i do
Even though I'm one of the few people who requested this game, I still feel like I influenced this video.
I JUST SUBBED TO YOU BECAUSE THIS VIDEO IS SO COOL LOVE DEAD CELLS but although... i don't play it but THE VIDEO IS JUST SO COOL :]
STOP TYPING IN CAPSSSS
I was thinking of buying the first dark souls is it viable to roll to dodge attacks
Ethendor Reviews Very much so. In fact most mosses are too strong to block so dodging is the best way to go.
Rolling is the best way.
Shields are pretty underpowered at the moment, and not because they're bad items, but because it's usually more viable to wield two weapons rather than a weapon & a shield.
This seems kindof like a 2d dark souls, and dark souls is my favorite series, so I'm definitely going to try this game
Edit: i only have a Mac and dead cells isn't available for mac :'(
As you made the video they got another update
Damn your review soooo goood "subcribes"
I go for suprise bomber and run away
I'm gonna get this the moment it releases on PS4.
If it does.
Nikola Predovan the developer mention in the most recent update that they plan on bringing this game to all 3 major consoles. I expect that it will be a ways off, but the plans are to eventually bring it to ps4.
Brian Mullins definitely hope so it's worth the wait for a counsel release
Counsel?????????
Few days now!
I'm not a fan of 2D games I love open world AAA games with good graphics and love the dark souls franchise. I was just wondering would I enjoy this game just because I like dark souls? Just curious to here someone else's thoughts.
Well it is dark souls only in the sense that it doesn't hold your hand and will stomp you unapologetically, and when it does you will have you only yourself to blame. It depends what is important to you as a gamer. If you like a challenge and good core gameplay, then yes. If you like randomly generated metroidvania style maps and trying different tactics with the different items you are able to find, then yes. If you are more graphically-minded it might not be your thing. It focuses more on conveying information with its graphics. Also some are not into the "one run" mechanic of roguelites such as this, since you lose all progress upon death (except any unlucks you get from Cells turned in).
Personally I'd recommend this to any one, since I think good gameplay should be priority. However, this doesn't have the three things you say you like (AAA game, good graphics, open world) and is the one thing you mention you dislike (2D). I like dark souls games and dead cells for similar reasons, but that doesn't mean that you will. Consider what things you truly put the most value in when it comes to games.
Graphics aren't everything and certainly don't make a game lol
The combat in this game looks a little chaotic. Have I been mistaken?
Fartsparkle yes, but chaotic in a good way (in my opinion). It's fast paced and Souls-like, leaning in the direction of a 2D Bloodborne.
Fartsparkle think nothing of it. I also want to add that in the video, he is showing off a lot of intense things that include lots of enemies and items with lots of shiny FX. While stuff like this definitely happens, for the most part you are hacking and slashing and roll-dodging your way through enemies. As you progress further through the game, more items become available to you as to harder enemies, so fights like he shows become more and more frequent. But as fas as I have gotten, they haven't necessarily become common.
YES OH YEA MNMNMNMNMN MISTER POST MAN
man... this game has changed a bit since early access
I agree been playing the crap out of this game.
I didn't even know you could get hp back after getting hit; Bloodborne isn't on PC and Dead Cells (a PC-only game) does not communicate this at all..
I will only get it once it's out of Early Access.
This does look really good, but I'll wait till it finishes EA, the only EA game I haven't regretted buying is Factorio, that is really excellent though.
This game is just like DARK SOULS!!
Hey, so first off this guys probably the best comment getbacker ever. He's also just a good guy. If you want to check out somebody like him check out ingeniousclown. And no, I have no deal or arrangement with him, he just really reminds me of this guy.
Oh goodness I hope you can turn off all the damage indication numbers this looks like a mess, I wanna see the beautiful pixel art
Luka Bucar, nope. But I never really notice it while I’m in the middle of combat.
I have no controller and Intel crap, THE REAL HARD MODE
I just got it. BUY THIS GAME..
switch port needs to happen
STILL NO HOLLOW KNIGHT?
You don't need to play Dead Cells... yet, wait for its final release.
no you should definitely play it. It is so good that it doesn't even feel like early access. It only costs 17 dollars now so I bet when it finally releases the cost will go up to 40 or 60 dollars.
No dead cells is terrible right now, no combat depth just spam attack and abilities, the fact that you can see a little thing above their head before they attack just makes it even easier,
And know it won't ever cost 60 dollars, it's an indie rouge like, a forgettable on at that.
The game has a ridiculous amount of content and polish. Definitely buy it.
Who else read the thumbnail as "you weed to play"?
The one game i think is like this is risk of rain but 50% better
Dead Cells is the best
I did try it and it wasn't very good, not sure why people think it's anything special, because it really isn't.
Indie box it
But it's Early Access
Man, every game has Dark Souls influence or what? xD
Yeah, dark souls fanboys always like to say that.
I will, when you know.. it's a finished game
Just because the developers don't feel that they're done with it and have decided to keep it in the Early Access category means nothing. If the game were to release in it's current form, you'd easily manage 40+ hours of content playing it. I've gotten over 100, personally.
I would, and then never play it again. I play games once, so i wait while they at it's best form. And dev say it's currently not - then it's not
