Dead Cells is a masterpiece. There are few games that come along and can push someone to go outside their preferred genres. Dead Cells did this for me. I've come to love the rogue-lite genre because of this game.

It is very hard and you will die and die again... but the controls are so smooth. It just feels natural and aside from dying towards the end of a run, the jump back into action doesn't make it as frustrating as I expected.

The possibility to customize the run, as per Devs ("Not cheating - it's how it was meant to be played") - allows you to experiment and get better with different setups (and achievements are still available - within reason).

Just love this game! To support the devs, I have both it on Steam, Switch (Collectors Edition), and MS Store.
And the devs keep pumping new material! Thank you for this labour of love!
