Games Asylum: "Roguelikes are tricky beasts. They take a certain amount of resilience to take on. With highly randomised elements they can be fun after obtaining items that synergise well, or your YouTube-worthy controller smashing moment as you take that disastrous final hit which ends the run far too soon. You die – a lot, essentially with the intention of unlocking better gear to push further next time, but it goes against the grain of gamers who have often been bought up against mantras of “try not to die” and “get gud.”
Still, they are my favourite genre, so the bar has been set quite high for Deadly Days"
"Deadly Days has now launched on consoles following arriving on Steam towards the end of 2019. Developed by Pixel Split and published by Assemble Entertainment comes this Retro-inspired Zombie title." Iain @ Thumb Culture
Hal writes: "Deadly Days won’t blow your socks off but it will scratch that rogue-lite itch. If you want something to keep you occupied for a good number of hours, love retro-styled graphics and have no issues with dying over-and-over again, then this is definitely a title for you."
A unique strategic rogue-lite in the zombie apocalypse. Manage and protect a group of survivors.
