Demonlisher is awesome.
Forget the Steam reviews. Most of them are bitter because this isn’t the game those folks wanted.
It’s basically a Pac-Man clone from 2004, but one of the most unique I’ve played. Better way to put it: Demonlisher is what you get if Hexen became Pac-Man.
You’re a wizard running through different dungeons, collecting souls to save. Meanwhile, demon hordes chase you down, and you have to kill them.
It has all the usual maze-game stuff: power-ups, bonuses. But also a bunch of clever traps.
Not everyone likes the graphics. I do. I spent a ton of my youth playing low-poly 3D shareware from random corners of the web (anyone remember TuCows?). Demonlisher feels like that genuine old-school deal.
I wish more games like this worked on modern PCs and showed up on Steam.
Yeah, Demonlisher is awesome. Sometimes Steam reviews just get it wrong.
Yep, I try to ignore reviews. Sometimes they deserve them, and sometimes there’s a real gem hidden under unclear systems or bad graphics.
Lichdom Battlemage is complex, unclear, and “Mixed”, but to me, it’s by far the best spell system in gaming, and it feels and looks amazing, when you know what you’re going… You just have to put the time in. “Overwhelmingly positive” in MY book ;)
