Good game, but hard with touch controls. I used to play this game with a controller, but for some reason my controller doesn’t seem to be working. Having previously played the game on the switch I splurged and got the dlc on mobile, figuring I’d just do it over again, but the lack of controller support has sort of invalidated my purchase. Update: the dev contacted me as said they have a fix in an upcoming update. So I’ll amend this now on the assumption they’ll fix it, because otherwise there’s a good chance I’ll forget. Dead Cells is a ambitious, complex rogue-lite that utilizes randomized elements of biomes that change as you progress, along with an upgrade system that eventually allows you to take some of the randomness out of certain item drops, let’s you maintain held money etc. I’ve beaten it at least once on the Switch a few years ago, and the phone setup I use currently fits more easily in the pocket. Pretty great game, generally a good buy if you’ve the patience for these games.

A blend of Metroid and Dark Souls. This is the game you’re looking for. Eventhough its just came out on mobile and a few dlc’s behind the console/pc versions. Its still a must have. I was writing almost a novel review of the game but then I accidentally closed out the app so I’ll just keep it shorter as possible and straight to the point. The art of the game is fantastic, especially with a retro style. Its great. For first timers, don't get frustrated. Keep calm, die, learn and adapt. It’ll get better...for a start. There’s tons of weapons, skills and abilities to unlock. How you combine them is what will make you progress. Aside from the awespiring elements of the game, it’ll leave you questions of why you’re in this cycle of deaths. Although the game just came out, so I’m patiently waiting so I can get the Hand of the King skin. Other than that, it’s a worthy buy not just for the mobile but also for your favorite console as well. Goodluck! Cheers to the developers! I patiently wait for the update.

Perfectly optimized. Super replayable.. I first started playing Dead Cells on the PS4, but lost track of it due to larger first party games taking up my playtime (Not because of anything Dead Cells did wrong.) so when I saw it was released for mobile, I snatched it up, and let me tell you...I don’t regret buying this game twice one bit. I think this game was meant to be mobile from the get-go. Once I moved the controls around so it would be more comfortable for my particular play style (a very nice addition) everything was so smooth. I’ve never encountered a single glitch, hang-up, or lag issue with this game. It plays perfectly. As far as the game itself goes, I think I’ll be playing for a very long time. The difficulty is punishing at first, especially if you’re new to this style of game, but it progresses in a way that you feel you’re getting just a little bit better every time, especially as you unlock the ever-important runes and Boss Cells. I HIGHLY recommend picking this one up.

Best Game on Mobile - Hands Down!!. The first time I heard about this game getting ported to iOS I was in disbelief - it is hands down one of my favorite games on console/pc and now my THE FAVORITE game on mobile/iPad. Worth every penny of the asking price. Playdigious have done a phenomenal job bringing this over to mobile where I can’t tell the difference between playing it on console/pc vs my phone/iPad. The only (very minor) critique I have is that touch controls can be a bit finicky at times but that is easily addressed by the inclusion of controller support. The auto hit control scheme is quite serviceable too for times when I’m on the go and can’t use a controller. I’ve already sunk hours into this game on my phone/iPad and I can’t recommend it enough - if you like playing games on your phone/tablet, do yourselves a favor and download this one.

Touch screen functions are great but can use one thing:. Love the game on all platforms and know adapting to mobile can be tricky. This game has everything from the resolution and attention to detail to the game mechanics down from the other platforms and handles very well speed-wise even with a Bluetooth controller which I thankfully had. But for people who don’t have a controller or don’t want to bring it with them on their daily commute; can we have the character’s slide option be FULL screen rather than just the right side of the screen? The game runs SO smoothly with the slide function not being a button to push but rather the sliding of the screen and I think to have the slide option take over the whole screen would complete the touch screen character control function 100%.

Awesome Game. I really enjoy dead cells and find it really fun and addicting. Although I sometimes get angry when I die and lose all my progress it really isn’t that bad. In response to all the people getting angry and giving bad reviews because you restart every time you die. I mean did you even read the app’s description? I would think you would actually spend some time researching a game before just getting it and being mad because you didn’t do any research on the game before hand. You’re supposed to die and restart that’s how the game works. Although I do admit when you’re finally at the hand of the king with 1 boss cell and realize that there isn’t any healing station and you’ve spent all your potions in the last area it does get quite frustrating when you die and have to start over again. But the game’s about skill if you’re good at the game you can get through the areas easily and get to the point where you died with better loot and items. Overall I really enjoyed Dead Cells.

Only one real complaint. The game is amazing by almost all means. The graphics are enticing and the variety of weapons is very enjoyable. My biggest complaint for the mobile version is the input delay. Constantly I see myself doing inputs that I know it didn’t do, so I record my boss battles and find that down smashes are happening when the recording shows a far left movement on the d pad followed by the dash button being pushed. Also sometimes it’s the exact opposite, sometime during boss battles I press the dash button for the first time (and on the recording it shows the button being pressed) but in game nothing happens and I proceed to lose runs to this. When it’s against the hand of the king, you can understand how infuriating this becomes. Besides this the game is awesome and I recommend it to almost anyone

Best game ever. Maybe I’m biased, but this game is amazing, I played it on my consoles, but when I found out that this game was on mobile, I got so excited. If you played this game on the console, the mobile version can be a little eh, especially if you aren’t used to playing with a touch screen (yet its still fun to play, still worth the money) BUUUUUUUUUUT if you are upgraded to ios 13, just connect your controller to your device. Easy and simple. If you have an ipad, it’s even better. SO MUCH BETTER. Especially on the 12in. This game is 10/10, never boring, and challenging. Also if your devices are connected to the same account, you can shift your progress on your devices. For example, I’ll play a little on my phone, and if I want to go on my ipad, it saves where I quit. (This game saves your progress, but if you die, you start completely over, but if you quit during a game, it saves where you left over. Just to make things clear) For new people to this game, this game is DEFINITELY worth the money, you got to have a little patience. AND It’s a one down payment. You don’t have to pay anything extra in the game. This game isn’t something you’ll blow through in a day, it’s an actual good lengthy game. I rage quit a bit in games, but I can actually enjoy this one, this has progression. If I could, I could play this game for hours. This my addiction. I hope you can give this game a chance, it’s an amazing game, and the artwork is beautiful. This game deserves more love.

no music :(. I have but one gripe with this game, and it has nothing to do with the game itself, but rather the fact that it pauses any gosh dang music or podcast I want to play. To be clear the game is amazing. It’s one of my favorite indie titles, but I have tried everything and no matter what I do, every time I open dead cells it pauses whatever I’m trying to play and even replaying it from the controller center doesn’t work. Don’t get me wrong the soundtrack has some banger tunes, but sometimes you just want to jam to some of your own music while grinding some dead cells and I can’t do that without having to use a second device. I know this is a small thing, but it is down right devastating every time I remember I can’t play dead cells while listening to “Mr. Blue Sky,” and I sincerely hope that this will become a thing of the past in the near future.

Great fun, worth the buy. I originally bought this on PC and have played many hours thoroughly enjoying the experience. When I saw the mobile iteration I didn’t hesitate to pick it up. The control scheme takes a little practice, but you do have some options to customize your button setup and some other options like proximity attack and swipe to dodge which makes playing on mobile a bit more manageable. One of the key draws of the game is its fluid gameplay and combinational approach to your weapons/equipment/perks to get through each of the levels. The more you play the more weapons/items/perks you unlock creating new approaches to each of the games challenges. The game runs smoothly on my iPhone XR, and I have yet to experience any issues with crashes or bugs. With dead cells, what you see is what you get and if you’re considering picking it up it is worth every cent they are asking for it.

Awesome game, fits mobile surprisingly well!. I played Dead Cells a lot on console (PlayStation 4), but have never been able to beat The Hand of the King. When I found Dead Cells on my iPhone I was a little skeptical, but the retro style and relatively simple control scheme of the game lends itself really well to mobile! I’ve been playing just a few days and I’ve actually managed to beat the Hand of the King for the first time!!! I still have multiple runes left to unlock and a LOT of recipes, so it does seem like the difficulty has been nerfed slightly on mobile. That being said, the game gets harder every time you kill the Hand, and I’ve already spent too much time writing this. Back to the dungeon, I go!

I love this game but it’s got bugs. To start with once these bugs are fixed I’ll change my review to 5 stars and to be honest this game deserves more but I got some issues. My two biggest involve the constant music bug and not being able to use the backpack even though it’s unlocked. I feel like I’m missing out on so much of the game not being able to hear the music no matter what I try. I’ve messed with the settings, deleted and reinstalled the game, and tried to start new save slots but nothing will work. It’s not just my phone either because I can play music on my phone no problem, my phone will even stop the music I’m listening to when I turn on dead cells and I get silence to play to. It makes me sad because all of my friends on the deadcells sub reddit rant and rave about their favorite biomes music and I don’t get to hear any of it all. Please help fix this. I hope this review brings awareness to this problem.

Dead Cells, A Real Videogame.. This is a perfect uncompromised port of an incredible game for mobile with an ACTUALLY GREAT control scheme for touchscreen play and full support for a Xbox or PS4 controller through bluetooth. The game supports offline play and airplane mode so you can play no matter where you are. Dead Cells is a single player game for those who like a challenge or just enjoy an old school arcade-like experience that you can revisit endlessly. It is a rouge-like 2D game with a heavy emphasis on Exploration, Combat, and Platforming. For the uninitiated this is a true videogame in every sense. You actually have full control of your character, you choose what direction to move and when to attack, jump, dodge, and heal. As you progress you'll pick up and exchange a variety of weapons and items. And should you dig deeper into the game you'll find it is filled with secrets and story to uncover, and I kid you not there is a ton to explore and experience thanks to the Procedurally Generated aspects such as level layouts, item placement, and enemy spawns (each of these elements can change each time you die or start a level). I give Dead Cells five stars because it delivers in all departments from gameplay, design, artstyle, to soundtrack. Needless to say, If you're looking for a true videogame experience on mobile with NO ads and NO micro-transactions, look no further than Dead Cells.

Seriously love this game!. I’m not one to write reviews usually, but I had to for this game. I’ve never played the pc port, but this one runs so smoothly that it would run just as well on all of the computers I own. The gameplay was difficult, and I keep having stretches where I don’t play it at all. But each time I come back, the game’s zombies and many bosses are waiting to both kick my tail and get theirs kicked by mine. I’ve played the game since launch and it’s greatly improved! If you’re still reading this get ittttt it’s really hard at first but it’s fun to learn and improve. The farthest I’ve gotten without getting hit is the fishing village (second area) Try to beat that!

The Best Souls Mobile Game. I HATE the idea of buying a mobile game. It seems silly to me when console quality is SOOO much higher. This game has great replayability. I’m a new player. Stuck in the first four to five levels. Doesn’t even bother me. You grind away to build your character and I can’t wait to beat the crap out of these guys beating my you know what right now. Truly a great time sinker but also gives you great entertainment with a challenge as well. I cannot wait to get to the higher levels of the game. That keeps bringing me back every day to play and get a little farther. And that slow grind and satisfaction of improvement with the time put in truly make the game worth the money you pay. No ads. Just enjoying a challenging and gritty game and looking forward to what happens when you break that next barrier. The best Souls mobile game I’ve played.

This is by far one of the best ports of a game to iOS! PLAY IT!. I heard about this game quite a while ago and instantly the visual style appealed to me greatly. What I saw was a game that was so full of potential that I wanted to play it. Alas at that time I couldn’t because I have no computer, which is why I was so unbelievably excited when I heard that this game was being ported to iOS. I’m barely an hour into the game and I’m already enjoying it very much. The difficulty is very much like my experience with dark souls, it’s there but when you get the hang of it you can go pretty far. I also absolutely love the way you keep your runes and other upgrades, it makes it so much more enjoyable than having to restart with absolutely nothing like some games I’ve played. Overall I’d say that this is without a doubt one of the best iOS ports I’ve ever seen, I cannot wait to see what this developer has in store for this game and others.

My new favorite mobile game!. Dead Cells is the mobile game I’ve been waiting years for. Gameplay has always been fast paced and engaging with a good degree of challenge. The combat design and vibrant art style pair beautifully and lend themselves perfectly to the comically macabre world of Dead Cells. Weapon and skill variety provide countless ways to engage a myriad of enemy types. Shifting area layouts and tons of-upgrade unlocks make every round feel like time well spent. I’ve loved this game since the first hour but since the addition of external controller support playing Dead Cells on a DualShock 4 has elevated my enjoyment to new levels. Even if you don’t have the luxury of a proper controller this game is a must have for any RogueVania fan and all those longing for a truly well crafted 2D action platformer. Absolutely worth the buy. I cannot recommend Dead Cells enough

BEST GAME for the phone!!. I was worried about buying this because people complained about the controls and I have a relatively small phone. However, once you okay for a while you get used to the controls so it really isn’t an issue especially because you can customize the control locations and how big the buttons are. My only issue is that every so often the audio will bug out and loop or simply not play. It doesn’t happen every run just here and there and I’m sure it’ll be fixed soon but for now it’s a little annoying considering how amazing the soundtrack is for the game and the sound design for the powers and attacks are perfect. This is one of the few pay to play games I will ever get. I highly recommend it. Best game I’ve ever played on mobile

Great. Better on PS4.. Love this game. It has its sense of progression despite how easily you can die, and getting a killer combo of weapons and support feels so satisfying when used correctly. With that said, what kills this port for me are its controls. The D-pad isn’t static and loves to register downward movements, making jumping onto vines/chains/etc. a hassle at times. Quick movements, especially for some bosses, are much more difficult since dragging your finger on the screen isn’t as smooth as with a controller. Also, there seems to be a glitch with the audio. It’ll commonly register the first 1-2 seconds of the sound of the metal platform moving, and loop it on repeat. It’s so loud that it superimposes the background music. Only way to get rid of it is to manually quit the game from the title screen. Even if you progress to the next level, it’ll still loop.

One of the best Roguelikes on mobile!. I am always in search of mobile games that play so well, if you were to hookup a controller and a screen, you’d swear you were running it on console or PC. Dead Cell delivers on that premise completely and absolutely! It is one of the few games that let you choose to run the app above 60FPS, for those of us with ProMotion screens. The controls are also responsive and intuitive. The developers have included button prompts for atleast Xbox gamepads. I do not own any other controllers, so was unable to test what other button prompts may be included. Moving on to gameplay, Dead Cells aces this aspect as well. Combat feels nice and punchy; platforming is incredibly responsive and precise; progression keeps things fresh. Usually, I’ve found roguelikes to get stale after a few hours, mostly due to the fact that TOO little of your progress is persistent between runs, but so far, Dead Cells seems to strike a balance perfectly where you seldom feel like your mindlessly going the motions each run without keeping anything once you are inevitably forced to restart. Overall, solid 10/10 game for me. Would recommend!

Thank you devs for the dedication. This game is outrageously awesome and I love being able to cloud save between phone+ipad+apple tv. Please keep it going, I need that new DLC announced on the game awards! 🫀 Edit: bummer…. Was just reading that the new DLC won’t be coming to apple…and just realized that there is another DLC that came out back in 2019 that was never released on here.. Well unless I decide to buy everything again on steam guess I’m out of luck. Sadly I can’t recommend buying it on Apple if that’s the case ⚠️ ⛔️ 🛑 Drop from 5 to 3 ⭐️ Really a shame because this is literally the best mobile port of a game I’ve ever played. Response: I don’t see the rise of the giant free DLC from 2019 anywhere unless it’s something already included that I just haven’t witnessed yet. And so does this mean the new Castlevania DLC will be on Apple?! 🦇 Also understandable you all have been great with the updates, it really is one of the best games of its type ever made. Thanks for the reply. Oh WOW 5 stars it is then, I apologize for not researching it more, and thank you again for THE game! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Absolutely outstanding!. Just get this game! If this genre interests you at all, this is an absolute must have! The game having controller support makes it everything you’d want from a platformer. It’s rougelike, which I normally am not a huge fan of, however, with the perm upgrades and blueprints available, it really takes away from the sting of total loss and gives you a definite sense of progression. The weapons are fun and creative, sort of reminds me of terraria with all of the different, crazy and, entertaining archetypes. You can push for speed runs to upgrade your equipment or slow it down and farm areas out to try and get more blueprints/gold/etc. Pick your play style and go for it. (Seriously tho, this game has me toting my xbox controller around so I can play it during my downtime while I’m on the road, freaking buy it)

Fantastic Roguelite!. Roguelite fans, you’ve found your newest conquest! Dead Cells is a fantastic combination of platforming and combat paired with incredible art and game flow. Battle through levels, unlock permanent upgrades and find a variety of weapons and skills. Every run is different as the weapons and skills available to you change, but no run is pointless, as the cells gathered in each area can be used to unlock new features and weapons for future runs. This game is great for casual players and hardcore gamers alike! The difficulty scaling modes unlock after beating the game for the first time, providing more difficult challenges for those who want them, but there’s plenty to do just by playing the game on it’s original mode. There’s plenty of lore for those who want to seek it out (with the game timer stopping in these areas so you can read, which is genius) but it isn’t essential to gameplay. I highly recommend getting the DLC- it provides different paths to take, new areas to explore, new enemies to battle and new equipment to claim, and means you don’t have to run the same areas over and over. The art and music is impeccable, and the variety in gameplay is refreshing and provides infinite replay value. The controls, being touchscreen, take a little adjusting to, but in my opinion work very well once you’ve adjusted to the learning curve. All in all, it’s a fantastic game for anyone interested in the genre and complete newbies alike, and I highly recommend :)

Great Game, Better on Other Platforms. I love the game, I have it on Steam, Switch, and iOS. The iOS version has some problems though. I took away a star because the game could be better and the issues fixed if the developers would put in a little extra time. The controls for hand held aren’t really ideal, yea they work but they could be better. Another issue is controller support, some work and others don’t. For example my PS4 controller works fine but the 8bit do controllers don’t. Last part is that they don’t seem to be porting over the new content, it’s not free on the other platforms but I’d have happily paid it to have it here as well. One last note, something to consider is implementing an online account system to be able to use your account and saved games across platforms.

Love the game, but…. I love Dead Cells! It’s one of my favorites. I play on my iPad 4th gen, and its a blast. However, I’m having some issues. Hence the 3 star rating. I’ve played for a while now, collected all runes, beat the Queen, and explored several biomes. I even purchased all additional expansions! Sadly, when I reach the doors to the Undying Shores, my iPad freezes, with a message that reads memory full and forces me to close. It’s definitely not a storage issue, because I’m only using 26 GB of my 256 GB of memory. I even restarted my iPad to clear the RAM and made sure no other apps are running in the background, but the error still persists. If there’s a “minimum RAM” requirement for the game that’s larger than some devices can accommodate, it should be clearly stated in the app/game description, especially since I’ve already purchased every additional expansion. I find it odd, that I’ve played so long, unlocked so many items, mutations, etc, and am only just encountering this. Anyways, I appreciate any help you can provide. Thanks in advance.

Definitely worth 8 bucks, all it needs is pvp.. This game is so sick, it’s 8 bucks and pretty difficult at first, but you get the hang of it and once you do you feel like a beast. The game is long and has lots of secrets so it makes your 8 bucks worthwhile. One thing I wish they would add is pvp, it would be a lot of fun give the players something to do after they complete the campaign. Some things would have to be nerfed or taken out in pvp,(primarily freezing) but I think it’s possible. Weapons would be earned through play, as a reward from winning a fight or by some currency used to by weaponry in a shop. 10 out of 10 game, probably my favorite game on my phone. The graphics may be pixelated but are still awesome and smooth. Such a fire game. Developer: are you gonna add the “rise of giant” expansion?

Totally amazing, Just like on Steam.. This honestly came out way better than I expected it to be, it actually exceeded my expectations by a long shot. Maybe a cool thought would be to add a co-op mode or an online multiplayer mode if you’re done with the story.(I have no idea what you guys have in mind, this is the first time coming back to this game in about a year.) But it would be nice to play with my friends and defeat the dungeon bosses together as a team, in fact it would be pretty cool to see different players with various weapons and skills working together, especially with the art style being as wonderful as it is already. But it’s just a thought that I would absolutely love if it would be possible. BIG thumbs up to making this work of art mobile compatible!

Should have picked this up sooner. I’m an avid PC gamer, and this has been on my Steam wishlist since its release. I was always waiting for a sale on it and it just was never the right time for me. I managed to afford an iPad and it blew my mind that it was available on the platform. I figured “Hey, I’ve wanted this for so long, time to scoop it. It can’t be that bad.” I’m using a wireless Xbox One controller to play this and, dude, this stuff is dope! The pace and mechanics all lend themselves to get the most out of your play styles. A rock solid gameplay loop keeps me rolling after death. Getting those lucky drops or rare finds feel real good. And the world building through strange encounters and interactions keeps progress interesting outside of progress’ sake. I should have bought this game sooner on Steam; and I probably will rebuy it there just to keep it all kosher. Though, this version plays well and is great. Legitimately, the best argument for “mobile gaming” I’ve come across.

Content?. This game keeps on giving, and I’m not talking about how it has more content after you beat the game, but it does that exceptionally well too. I keep coming back to this game, switching from Xbox to laptop to the app on my phone now because they keep releasing new content that completely changes to feel of the game (in the best way possible). The foundation for this game is so solid I’m sure an entire world could be built with this gameplay, not just an island this game’s setting is using, which is why I’m sad to hear the DLC in 2022 is the last they plan on doing. I’m sure their next project will be amazing as well, but I want Deadcells to keep living and growing. It knows exactly what it is, and it has mastered itself in the way most games can barely dream of, let alone come close to. I love this game, for its art style, the music, the gameplay, the story, the ingenuity, and most of all, raw uniqueness, especially because it’s a direct inspiration from all the beloved games that have come before and after. I’m in love with the gameplay provided by the last DLC and more so by the crossover content. The newest weapons are an absolute joy, and I never thought my favorite weapon in a game would be a bone, but like I said before, Deadcells does it right.

I Love DeadCells Please Add Controller Support for “Backbone”!. I love playing DeadCells, it’s one of my favorite go to time killer games. The amount of weapons and customizations, the different ways to get through a new maze of a familiar stage, the art style and dialogue are all top notch IMHO. I’ve put the game on multiple systems just so I can always get a run through no matter the console. I recently discovered it was on iPhone and immediately downloaded it, looking forward to spending hours on end picking up weapons, spending gold, using different mutation sets and of course collecting Dead Cells!! I was disappointed to out find that I can’t run this amazing game with my Backbone controller through the IOS app despite the fact it works when playing DeadCells through Gamepass and Remote Play. This game is great, and a MUST play…there’s just one thing missing….Please add controller support for the IOS app.

Such an awesome game never get bored. I like dead cells. I’ve played on Switch and I just had to buy a mobile one too. The game structure is designed so that you never get enough of it because you can never be strong enough with max hp. Every time you die, you start over with 100 hp lol. I personally think those games that let you master and hit max hp always get me bored out since it gives a feeling that I’ve already hit the top. This game doesn’t let you feel that way and is always challenging to survive. But it’s definitely doable. I’m not really that good at controls in general but I’m totally okay with playing this game. Plus, so far I’ve been perfectly fine with the controls on mobile version of this game. It’s totally worth the money and time. It’s very well designed, balanced, reasonable difficulty, and there are many surprises and loots that are hidden and many many possibilities of new paths in the game. To be able to play such well developed game at this price is a bargain! One thing that disappointed me is that while I was able to play with different languages on Switch, I could not play the mobile version with different language setting. I wish they’d add this feature if possible. Other than that, no problem with the game!

A great challenge, love this game. As a fan of the console/PC release, it’s hard not to love the mobile version. It’s fun to see how far I can get on mobile after I’ve gotten to 2 BSC on PC. It’s absolutely identical and just as smooth, with the exception of touch controls and slower updates. If you have this game on PC, it won’t do much to have it on your phone too, unless you just wanna do a quick run at work or something. But don’t get me wrong, serious progression is absolutely possible. Overall I recommend this as a super solid mobile game, and if you don’t have the comparison of a controller, even easier to pick up and start smashing enemies.

Best game EVER!!. I’m 42 yrs old been playing games on every system back to the Intellivision till now. I have currently in rotation for gaming, Xbox One, PS3, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Game Cube,the New 3ds XL and PS Vita and of course I have an Asus ROG. I was on the fence for along time about this game and the price, but now I NEVER THOUGHT that I would enjoy a game so much I can honestly say this game is definitely worth every penny I think if someone let me play this game before I purchased it I could see myself paying AAA money for this game. I have this game on my Xbox One and my Switch but now that I can have it on my IPad AND I can use one of my Xbox One controls with it thanks to iOS 13. If you have never played this game I’ll tell you now it’s pretty frustrating in the beginning but once you catch on and learn the moves this is by far one of my top 5 games of all time. Sorry for the rant just can’t give the game enough praise.

BEST metrovania, game of its time, and it’s mobile 👀. This is the PERFECT vania game, greater then blasphemous, and even more fluent then castlevania. The exploring of the world reminds me so much of that feeling that Metroid gave me, and the set up is just smart when it comes to skill tree and items and how the game works! I’m been craving a game like this for a few months now, almost purchased bloodstain because I wanted a castlevania like game. But I got blasphemous, and enjoyed it, though it’s slow pacing to the skills and how punishing the game is, made me lose interest into going deeper however this ? MOBILE GAME? Is addicting when it comes to lure and wanting more from it! I HOPE THERE IS A PART 2 with A BIGGER WORLD TO GAIN ALL THAT THIS GAME IS....giving me! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾very refreshing game, I say it’s game of the year for mobile gaming.

Touch controls are a bit difficult. First off, I would like to say that I love this game. I’ve played it for upwards of 200 hours since I purchased it, and on my Steam save file I’ve recently made it to the hardest level of difficulty. However, I would suggest people who seriously want to buy the game should look into buying a copy of this game for console or PC. Though the price is a little steeper, you will get the latest updates to the game, while on this app updates will be up to 6 or 7 months behind release (I’m still waiting for the Break the Bank update to come to mobile, though there have now been two major updates after that). On top of that, the touchscreen controls are a bit difficult to operate. I own a second generation iPhone SE that I play this game on, and I often miss the button that I want to press at a critical moment. Seeing that I was playing at the easiest level of difficulty and was struggling on mobile, yet wouldn’t have a single problem on my computer, it would be nice to make a small change to the interface, perhaps like making the main and secondary weapon buttons larger. Overall, though, the experience is rather similar to that which you get on computer save those gripes. Thanks to Playdigious for porting my favorite game over to mobile, and I hope this review is helpful for anyone looking to purchase this app. 🙂

Great game but issues with controller support. Awesome port but for one issue. Controller support is a bit messed up. You are forced to use the analog stick to control your character regardless of whether your playing with an Xbox, PlayStation or Kishi controller. With how intense the game can get it would be much better to control with the thumb pad, but that’s not an option and there is no way to remap it. Having played this game for a long time on PC before switching to this version I definitely felt handicapped by the controls. That said it’s still very playable and ridiculously addictive. This is the game I keep coming back to between every other game I play. I have Apple Arcade, but I wind up spending more time grinding on this then on all the games on there. Its just a really solid, addicting metroidvania. But please developers if you read these, let us control with the thumb pad! It would make such a big difference.

Truly incredible. This game starts you off in a dungeon with a new character, a bunch of controls to figure out, a weapon/armor system to test out, and a plot waiting to be discovered. As you start off you take a couple of hits and inevitably die pretty early on, but you see that not only did you lose all you’re progress, you see that your in a different dungeon all together. It’s twists like these that have made this game an absolute joy to learn the different mechanics. So many surprises and hidden strategies to be found in every level. The game’s graphics are also beautiful 5/5 would recommend the price on this game is pricey but I would still consider a huge deal for a game that I would even considered underpriced.

I wish I was better at this game.. Great game, well worth the price, addictive. Not unbearably hard, actually pretty easy to get into but I feel that it’s going to probably be hard to master. It is challenging but fair. Every time I lose I know it’s my own inadequacies at playing the game and I want to hop right back in for another run. The way the game is designed makes it very easy to do so: you are expected to die a lot and the game doesn’t punish you for doing so. Every run is a blank slate and at least partially randomized each time. That said there are some things that carry over across multiple runs and you sort of unlock more and more of those so between that and your own growing skill you get the sense that you’re getting a bit further each time. Controls can be a bit awkward given the small size of the screen. I think though that that is equal parts the inherent downside of the platform (small touch screens) and a mix of both my own unfamiliarity with the controls and me not quite deciding yet what the best configuration is for me (you can move around the control icons).

How do I buy the skeleton dlc. And another thing. I’ve been playing this game for a month or two now on my iPad my dad owns it on his ps4 and I noticed that the skeleton was gone for him and mine wasn’t the I figured out it was a dlc but I can’t find out how to get it from the apple store if anyone can answer my question I would be very grateful. I had originally pre-ordered this game during the summer time.I had waited for a few months the they changed the release date.I waited a while longer then the day came by and I didn’t get it.I had spent 7 or so dollars so I was a little angry but I had no way of contacting them to say anything about so I just moved on and now I bought it again.I know I probably won’t get any compensation for it but I just wanted them to know.

One of my favorite mobile games. Don’t have a lot of games I can scratch my neck in anticipation to play on the phone like I do console or pc games, this is definitely the challenge and fun I’ve been looking for in a mobile game for a while. I kind of a souls like game where you get a lot of progress and if you die, you lose nearly all of that, but instead of leveling up your stats like an rpg, you invest your “dead cells” in other words souls into things that’ll help you in the long run such as instead of dying and losing all of your coins and starting out with nothing, you can save up to 3000 or 6000 coins which can be useful later, or even start out with a little better something if you want your early game to go faster and easier. I love this game, would recommend it for people who wants more than a free mobile game with pop up ads and simple gameplay that people made from unity in 2 weeks or something.

On the Phone Now!?. I about crem-de-la-pooched my pants seeing this full port for phones! This game......this *%#%>! Beautiful game!!! The flow of movement and combat should from now on be the template for any other action game. This is a game you will play, die, “Hmmm so that was cool but weird.....whoa wait what’s this new thing...” and repeat so many times. Almost every time you play you will open a new area or unlock an ability that connects you to the next tier of levels. The gameplay flow is so addicting. Easily one of those games where you say “ok I’m going to bed after this level......after this level......ok after I die......ok after this first level again just to get a little jump on next time I play....etc....until the next thing you know it’s been 5 hours and you’re still saying “one more level”. I love this game!

Definitely Worth Your Money. When I got this game I actually didn’t expect this much out of it, but playing it now it’s an amazing game. I would relate this to like Neon Dungeon and am surprised it’s not worth more money. It’s a really fun side scroller with interesting combat mechanics and lots a differences from other combat side scrollers. It’s design well and feels like a side scroller Dark Souls, one that’s not Hollow Knight. I’d say it’s 9.5 out of 10 because their is no tutorial but you get used to the game mechanics easily and after a while will learn a lot about the game. I also love the secrets and stuff which encourages players to look around and check every corner. It also looks beautiful and has and amazing atmosphere. 10/10 game besides no tutorial.

I didn’t play Dead Cells on PC or Console. I’m definitely going to now, of course, $30 price tag or not. The fact that I can get this a game of this level of quality on mobile is a testament to the fact that phones really are mobile gaming consoles. The degree of polish Dead Cells Mobile possesses is absurd. The animations are fluid and gorgeous, a range of different visual effects to stun you (and your enemies lolololol), cute little character animations like a shrug or a head tilt with some flavorful commentary add personality to the game that so many others lack. The music and sound effects are both great, fitting the mood of the levels and the weapons/spells that make them. The difficulty and learning curve are up there, but not ridiculous at all and learnable even for those not well versed in this genre. The persistent unlockable system works well and feels fair. Overall, Dead Cells Mobile feels like the full package!

Phenomenal Addition to any Gamers Mobile collection. I’ve been playing dead cells since the pc beta and it is an absolutely phenomenal rogue-lite dungeon crawler and when I heard it was being ported to mobile I couldn’t have been more excited. The game plays just like on pc with the addition of a blue tooth controller and with how well ps4 controllers work with iPads, and even iPhones there is no reason not to get this game if you like to torture yourself with endless death and humiliation (kidding, slightly, okay not really you’ll die quite a bit.) All said and done I have never seen a mobile game of any price truly worth playing and this one broke that trend. Great game, excellent port, don’t wait and get it now.

Awesome game. Honestly, I would spend much more time playing this game, but I have school so I can’t. But school aside, this game is great. I love the controls for this game, considering a lot of games on mobile devices have controls that aren’t that good, this one has good controls, even though this is also a console game. The way this game works is amazing, I like how when you die, the map changes. I like that about this game, it feels like a whole new experience every time I die, because I get thrown into a world I know nothing about. It’s a bit like Minecraft hardcore in a way, you die and you start a new world that looks different and you can’t respawn in that world. All in all this game is fun. I give this 5/5 stars simply because it’s got good controls and fun to play over and over again.

I can’t believe these controls work. I mainly play Dead Cells on PS4, and, as it’s one of my favorite games of all time, I was curious to see how the iOS version held up. I just beat the first difficulty level and I’m blown away by what are easily the best touch controls I’ve ever experienced. They’re still a bit twitchy at times due to the speed of the game and the nature of touch controls in general, but they get the job done incredibly well and blow away the efforts of all of their peers. The fact that such a fast and precise pc/console game is playable on my phone at all, and a joy to play at that, is a miracle. This is 100% Dead Cells, not a watered down “Dead Cells Mobile” like you might expect from lesser devs. Buy with confidence, buy on every platform. Long live the King.

Not a fan of Roguelikes. I was enjoying Dead Cells, but then I hit the “Roguelike” wall of having to play the same level over and over. If I bought this on my PS4, I probably would have given up on it. But since it was on my phone, I gave it another shot on my commute. Eventually, the Metroidvania elements kicked in - unlocking different weapons and finding different areas - and the game became more interesting. Even the aspect of not being able to choose your initial weapon keeps the game interesting. So often, I’m like “Ugh, I didn’t get what I wanted” only to find that the weapon I got has some pretty cool features. Another evil feature is the cursed treasure boxes. I avoided them at first. Why would I risk an insta-kill and have to start over just to get some random weapons/money? But now it’s all about the odds - do the weapons I have give me a better chance of not being hit before I can kill ten enemies? So even though I’m not the strongest gamer, I’m having fun doing the same thing over and over.

Beautiful, just beautiful. At first I was skeptical, as I thought the game was originally intended for PC, so I thought it was off bounds for me, or that it would be a cheap rework with in app payments. But yet, I find it sitting there in the recommendation section, and I just had to try it. For those wondering, it’s a one time payment. You pay once for the game, and you get the game. Plain and simple, the way games should be sold. I just want the developer to know, if you put in an optional donation function, I don’t doubt people will thank you and your team for your flexibility! Random generation for new life’s is incredible, I truly feel as if I’m trapped in repeat, but yet it never gets old. First time was expectingly clumsy. I stumbled along, and got killed by spikes. I got re... globulated? And I found a fire Molotov like throwable. I was doing pretty well! Then I found an amulet that made it so when you did your down smashing attack the ground you landed on gets engulfed in flames. I was cruising along, but then my lack of skill is what got me killed. I’ve found that restarting with the default weapons, I’ve improved. I’m taking less and less damage each run, and it feels really good to know that’s me, and not some boost.

(Non-generically) (Un-Ironically) ***Awesome Game***. This is a challenging game that keeps you coming back for more. You die once and that’s it...Game Over! You restart at the beginning with a rusty sword. You do continue to accumulate perks and “tech tree builds”. But you do lose all your loot and gear. You restart at the beginning with the rusty sword or beater bow and arrows. The writing and storyline are witty and entertaining. A quality that is all too often neglected...or just downright poor. You need to strategize your gameplay. Organize and optimize your skills and weapons to stay alive longer. You have melee and/or ranged attacks. I personally like the Electric Whip! Boss fights can be challenging and difficult, but not ridiculously impossible. Very balanced, yet challenging gameplay. Not for children or cry babies... Find a wiki or tips and tricks doc out there on the interwebs to learn how to acquire some permanent upgrades/perks. This game is un-ironically unique. Slap down your shekels and get this. The entertainment value far outweighs the price of the game. Lastly, using an external controller is very suitable and makes an intuitive fit for gameplay.... but is no way mandatory, or even needed for the unique gaming experience like no other you have ever played.

TOO GOOD NOT TO BUY. Ive had this game since it was actually on the app store and first impressions had been great, then they added the console/pc DLC and i bought them instantly, loved them all and waited patiently for a future DLC. They released the Castlevania DLC on pc/console but i hadnt realized they also in tandem released it on mobile too, so i deleted the game out of false disappointment. After getting bored about every other game I decided to install the game again. And realized all DLC had been within the game, and i wait patiently to buy that too. Im a multi platform player so oc I have the DLC already, and i never got to actually buy the game on xbox as gamepass exists. Once over i seriously want you whoever’s seeing this to buy this masterpiece, all the content is here its creators are amazing at what they do and have no plans on not giving this game the content it deserves, they care about your entertainment✨

One of the best gaming experiences on iOS. This was one of the best MetroidVania games on PC and the consoles. Nuff said. Oh, the controls? Amazing for a phone screen. The combat, animations, movement, art and everything like that- f’ing amazing. Runs super smooth too!

The shield. Used to be easy to use now it is very hard because you need to hold the button longer to be able to parry instead of just tapping pls bring back the tap to parry for the shield but rest is perfect

Games awesome. I really enjoy the game it’s amazing I just want to know when customisation is going to be added because I am at 2bc and just want to mess around with the weapons of my choice

Great challenge and Fun. I picked up this game yesterday because I had heard good things and whilst it hard to pick up the controls once you get into your groove it is so much fun even when you lose a good run cause know you’ve learnt what way you should deal with a specific enemy and how most locations have their gimmicks making them interesting. Over 10 out of 10 game.👍

Game is great. The only problem I have is one that I knew buy it, that mobile interface makes the game difficult to play. I knew that I could get around this issue if I pair my ps4 controller to my phone. The game is really enjoyable with a controller. Another plus is that it does not need internet connection to play like some other games. Another great plus is that it is not as intensive as other games marking my phone overheat and causing my phone to dim to save itself.

What a game. Easily one of the top best games in App Store.. Well done to the devs in porting a good console port to mobile platforms successfully. Usually when this happens the controls for the port suffer, but not Deadcells. Very addicting experience without any in app purchases nonsense. Beautiful art, sound and game design at display. I don’t think it can get better than this, gaming on mobile. You should buy it if you haven’t already. It’s a bargain compared to console prices as well. And you can use a console controller to play it as well.

Finally.... The Rise of the Giant DLC is now here... All we need left is custom mode and the Bad Seed DLC. They also fixed the GC achievements last update (achievements were incorrectly shown as hidden despite completing it). However, I’m still frustrated that I have to redo all of them again just to complete it.

TOTALLY HOOKING!!!. I played this game for like 20 seconds and I was hooked. The game works super smooth and it has awesome graphics. It has awesome action gameplay and permanent upgrades. This is an awesome game, and if you pay, you WILL NOT be disappointed.

Fantastic - just want to listen to podcasts while I play!. Excellent, beautifully crafted game. I’m just knocking one star off because it’s currently not possible to listen to your own music or podcasts while playing. If that changes it’ll be five stars for sure!

Worth every cent. Without a doubt the best mobile game I’ve played in a long time. It’s that good I’ve actually taken time to praise it. No ads or micro transaction spam!

Honest Review. Dead cells is a great game on iOS but AU$14 is a decent amount for a game on your iPhone, iPad, Laptop etc. but even though considering that price I would highly recommend getting it. I was sceptical about getting it at first but I was glad I did buy it. I wouldn’t recommend it if you aren’t play with a controller I played it with my PS4 controller at first and it was great but then I tried it without one and it was rather challenging. But Dead Souls is a great game and I haven’t had any issues with it since I bought it.

Honest Review & request. I love Dead Cells. The combat and controls feel so smooth, the graphics and style of the game is very fun to play and experience. The feeling you get when you find a new area is indescribable, with new enemies and items. This is an amazing game that the developers obviously have put so much effort into, one thing that I find annoying is that you can’t listen to music while playing, I would love this to be fixed as it would make it more enjoyable to play. Overall I think this a great game and would highly recommend it to a friend.

Idk what to put as the title. I can’t put the game down, I have it on my laptop as well and it can get anymore enjoyable. The story and gameplay is amazing and I can’t wait for all the possible changes to come.

Seems great so far. The controls are as good as they can be for a touch device, even better with a controller, gameplay is simple however very enjoyable, I highly recommend

Awesome game love it but.... Love this game and I’m up to bc4 been playing it non stop but it doesn’t lose a star because it’s addictive... it loses a star because of the sound bugs that happen randomly they are very annoying and have to restart the game to fix them. Can the developers please please fix this issue the game isn’t the same on mute need to hear sound cues for the monsters attacks.

Brilliant. It’s a great game. Despite the semi repetitive levels, the sheer amount of weapons, magic, abilities and support gear you can collect and utilise makes sure the game never feels dull. It is a brilliant little game with amusing bits of lore hidden away.

Great game. Maybe ability to move where heal button is would be great, quite hard to access in the middle of a fight on iPad.

Best offline rpg on the App Store. First off - zero pay to win, there’s paid content DLC’s for this game that are entirely optional, the base game will last you a long time regardless. I have 100+ hours on pc with Dead Cells but being able to play on the go or just on the couch or even in the bathroom is so good. If you enjoy roguelikes, castle/metroid vania games, grab this one for sure. I like to get at least 1 hour of play time per dollar I spend with a game so I technically owe Dead Cells like 50 bucks - and that’s after buying it on pc and my iPhone.

One more go.... 5 stars if the developers kept this game updated to the latest patch and DLC. Nonetheless a must buy if you are itchy for that pick up and put down game on the go. Deep, repeatable and satisfying progression. Great graphics and adaptation to iOS

Great game, but sound bugs. So the game has been beautifully ported, well worth the money and a great offline game when you don’t have reception. The concept actually works brilliant on phone to, very much a pick up and play style of game. 4 stars though purely to sound issues. 1. You can’t play music while in the game, for a game like this I feel like you really need that 2. You then get sound bugs, music chops in and out, slug explosions are super loud compared to other audio 3. So most of the time you end of playing with no music (not even in game) and just have sound effects which impacts the enjoyment factor.

GREAT GAME!. This game is absolutely incredible, if you like dark souls and hollow knight this is a great game for you, the game has such an addictive loop that it never gets old. 100% recommend!

Awesome game!. It’s a really fun game! Nuff said but really it has tonnes of playability! It challenges you to get all the boss stem cells and beat all the difficulty’s! It’s honestly awesome. One thing to improve the game would be adding in the rise of the giant dlc. Apart from that it’s a great game and I would love it to get updated more regularly like the computer version!

Needs better control options. Needs options for a fixed directional pad you can resize, resizing buttons in general is needed since the attack buttons are tiny, also getting the dlc the console and pc versions have is also needed Its just much much harder to play on a mobile device because of the wonky controls, other apps have much more customizable controls that help deal with having to to do complicated combat on a touch screen

Amazing!. I think for my opinion, this game is quite hard but it is really fun! It’s really like hollow knight but even better! I know you die almost like 3 minutes but you will get the pace after awhile

Bigger button please. The game is great as is was. I had both NS and iOS version. But the control on iOS is a bit awkward, I constantly miss the button and cause mistakes.

Bug Report. Dead Cells is one of my favourite games of all time, and the whole game has this aesthetic that actually makes me feel like a dead prisoner who is being possessed by a certain green slime. HOWEVER, there is one bug on iOS that renders some parts of the map completely inaccessible by any means. This bug is the double jump bug, and has been annoying me ever since I started playing this game on iOS. This bug makes your character use the double jump feature a just a few frames after you jump, and as far as I know, there is no way you can avoid this. If a developer is reading this, then I would like to sincerely ask you to please fix this bug. Sincerely, An angry man on the internet

Made my commute less boring. Great game. A frequent problem with mobile ports is poorly ported controls, this game is a great example of why this is not always the case. If you’re looking for a more involved mobile game, buy dead cells.

Great on all platforms. I mainly play this on my switch but I got it on my phone to play while on the go. As good as it is on console/PC

You can’t save your progress. The game itself it’s very good and fun but you can’t save the progress and for adults playing that just kills all your time and effort at learning the controls and to play . It’s one star because you can’t save your progress or money though the game and it’s as easy pleating on a phone .

Incredible game, but the DLC is a bit expensive. I love the game, but for someone who has already purchased all the game and dlc on Steam, it’s a bit annoying how they cost more than the game again on this platform. I don’t mind paying the $15 for the game, but I don’t like having to buy it all again.

Backbone bug after fix in recent patch. Hi, thanks for fixing Backbone support but now when I press the X button the game crashes and comes up with a lot of errors which then I can only press Exit on the prompt which closes the game. Please fix! I’ve been waiting for a month to play with the Backbone.

Amazing game with flawed controls. Have over 200 hours on the Steam version and I LOVE this game, easily game of the decade for me. I don’t usually enjoy a rouge likes but as this one does have a consistent sense of progression through deaths it feels less disappointing to die as you know you achieved something every run you do, while there are only a few levels the game is aimed at repeating content while improving your skills and finding different ways to play with a large variety of weapons and traps to make for an enjoyable experience. The touch controls aren’t great but with auto attack they get the job done on the lower difficulties, it is hard to click some of your abilities on a smaller iPhone 11 so I don’t want to imagine how it would be on the iPhone 11 Pro (non-max) or smaller devices. I would highly recommend a gamepad for any of the higher difficulties. There’s no real way I can think of for the developers to improve the controls, it’s more so that the game was never built with touch in mind but they’ve tried to make it work at the very least. For whatever reason the game is locked at 30 FOS by default which made me refund the first time I purchased, but after someone let me know I could uncap the framerate I purchased it again and it’s a much more enjoyable experience.

The Best iOS Game. So good! I wanted Dead Cells on Switch or PC or anything but never bit the bullet. Now that it's out on iOS for 1/2 the price I bought it and regret not getting it sooner! 10/10 difficult but fun.

Good game. Good game. I would love more of a map that you can keep showing the paths possible to the later game. I get lost often

Hits the spot, scratches that itch. Gaming done right.. Still one of the best console ports and bang for your buck games on the app store to date, I don’t proper game much nowadays so having another favourite on-the-go is truly a great thing. Even the touch controls flow nice, master them and it can be more satisfying than using a controller. Hundreds of hours worth of content and DLC is 100% worth it, actually done right like it used to be, pay once and get a proper expansion full of hours of new content like new weapons, levels, bosses, lore, outfits, secrets/unlockables, new challenges etc. But I don’t need to sell this masterpiece to anyone in 2023, we all know what this is, I’m writing a fresh review for Castlevania DLC hype let’s go!!!

Innovative. I don’t have to say it because it’s been said before This critically acclaimed game has gone and got me addicted, and I ain’t even mad! The graphics are incredible and lends a sense of mystery and intrigue that drives this platformer! It’s amazing narrative is uncovered in tidbits, so that to really PLAY the game will take you ages: it will keep you occupied for days on end. The sound design really helps to build this grim fantasy world and it is well worth whatever you pay

Pad control. Need improvement on the touch control. Sometime mistouch on other abilities. Overall, the game is addictive.

Honestly the best game on iOS. This game has made it so far being a Xbox hit (which I have) now to being a iOS game with amazing graphic quality and the fun and enjoyment of a dungeon crawler on a whole other level. So far I found no bugs, no crashes and the only problem is slightly the controls just might take time to get use to. Thank for making this game and putting it on our phones and iPads.

Bug stops it from being 4 stars. Had this game on my PC and loved it so I bought it for my iPad Pro. Runs great except for the fact that sound DOES NOT WORK when playing from regular iPad speakers. Sounds does work however when my headphones are connected. This is a great game and with IPadOS 13 dualshock 4 controller support it is amazing.

Quite impressed with Dev team.. I reported an issue regarding the absence of the Traditional Chinese option, and the development team promptly addressed it within a few days. What an outstanding team! I have confidence that the game will continue to improve, and I eagerly anticipate versions 3.4 and 3.5. Keep up the excellent work!

Really great game so amazing for iOS. Controls take a bit to get used but you can play with controller apparently

Just 1 thing. I love this game and have for ages, but i just have 1 improvement that would be beneficial for everyone. When deleting a save file, it doesn’t say which save file you have selected to delete, which led me to accidentally delete my main save file. If when selecting a save file to delete, the conformation message mentioned the selected save file, this would be beneficial for everyone.

Good game, hard to control. You’ll have to rely on an ‘auto-attack’ method of control when using the touch-screen to be competitive. He game still feels balanced around having very responsive controls and that makes it pretty frustrating to lose due to an off-centre digit.

Beautifully brutal. Designed really well from both a gameplay and aesthetic style. Even pale who don’t like rogue like will enjoy this. Touch controls also implemented well!

Amazing!. It’s a great game, and I was ecstatic when they ported it to mobile. This might not make much sense considering it’s $40 on pc, but this game would be better if it was under $10 instead of $14. Regardless, the gameplay is amazing after you get used to the dodge button. Would highly recommend if you’ve got the money!

report a bug. Great game after all! But I would like to report a bug. The mutation: recover % of health after a parry, this doesn’t work at all. Can you please fix it?

Best Metroidvania on iOS!. This is as good as it gets! Combat is fluid, art design is fantastic, and dialog is witty. A bargain compared to the prices available on major consoles (I.e. Nintendo Switch) as well. It’s refreshing to play a solid game that doesn’t include microtransactions. There is also now an option to play at 60fps, even on older devices such as an iPhone 7. Looking forward to seeing more from this developer!

God its so good. Honestly the trailer doesnt do it enough justice. I have spent (emphasis on the fact that its not wasted time) sooo much time on this wonderful game. Great graphics, great action, and amazing story.

Brilliant. Play on an iPad Pro with an xbox controller which works great - also own the xbox version, but love the portability of playing on my iPad. Art style and music is wonderfull, and the whole replay concept is fantastic. As good as playing on the console. Cant wait until the new DLC is available on IOS - The Queen of the Sea

Appears to have a terrible memory bug. This game deserves 5 stars, but unfortunately becomes unplayable after 30+ minutes of gameplay. Completely closing and relaunching the game fixes the tremendously low frame rate issue (I’m playing this on iPhone 15 Pro) Please fix this. Love playing this on my PC and works well, when it works.

Imagine you at your best. All the time. Picture yourself at your sharpest and most productive. Your most alert and focused. Your most lucid, creative and confident. At work. At play. In every area of your life. Add Mind Lab Pro® v4.0 to your daily routine and uncap your true potential. Buy Now!

Fast paced and fun!. Challenging, with a dark world that somehow manages to stay light hearted, and not take itself too seriously.

Mobile control. If you’re wondering about the mobile control like I did: It’s good enough for the normal difficulty run, but if you want to access end game and play for the true ending, expect a lot of frustration with the mobile control as you add boss cells.

Carful very addictive!. If a lady friend is bothering you just give them the game on an iPad and you’ll finally be able to take a nap without them bugging you LOL

Addictive game with casual gameplay. My fav game by far, fun and quick , controls are amazing and game design are superb , works with xbox controller as well

Fantastic. A great port of an amazing game

One of the best on App Store. Awesome game

I love this game. Don’t skip this game if you’re a fan of rogue-like games.

Love this!!. I can’t get enough of this game! The graphics the gameplay, the characters. All of it is Awsome and is deserving of a play through! 5/5

Fun. Fun

Huge fan. I’m biased as I love this game from pc

Excellent. “The perfect game doesn’t exi…”

Lots of fun so far. Really enjoying this game

Amazing. It is a great game, finished it thou in one day 😅😅😅

Motion Twin are a bunch of liars and cash grabbers.. You claimed in the description I was getting the *full* Dead Cells experience. So naturally, since I saw how much my friends on PC were enjoying it and you specifically said it was the full version, I’d probably buy it. After all, being able to customize my experience and keep weapons I didn’t like out of runs I didn’t want them in seemed like a wonderful idea, and something I wished all roguelikes with unlockable weapons had, because goddamn do I hate some weapons, and didn’t want to be punished for unlocking the wrong things. I mean look at r/Archero, their entire subreddit is about how much they hate unlockables. But lo and behold! I pay for the full Dead Cells experience, and what do I get? Well I know it sure as hell ain’t the full Dead Cells experience! Didn’t have the feature I specifically bothered getting it for, hasn’t been kept up to date with the PC version at all. So I go check out what Motion Twin’s been doing on YouTube, and lo and behold, their most recent video is about a DLC. A total cash grab. They’re just the type to keep releasing paid content instead of updates.

Cant find a better game. The best dungeon crawler out there.

A good game. A soul’s like, worth buying it

Maddox. Good game

Dead cell short review. It’s really fun and challenging at the same time

Dude? Can’t play music?. Can you provide an update that will allow this game to be played while playing music on iPhone 13 Please get with it. This game has been a downer for me from the beginning cuz NO MUSIC? Wth.. offloading only option until then…. AND ANOTHER THING! smh.. Streets of Rage is the same deal. Cant listen to music when playing it ob iphone….. are the developers holding a grudge to music LMAO… dude update… cuz for now ima put this game where it belongs. And im not the only one in this demographic so update Dead Cells & Streets of Rage 4 & make money or keep your music grudge and downer gameplay,

Absolutely AMAZING. This is such a wonderful crafted game. It was worth every penny

Unbelievable. Best game on the app store

Apple TV Gamer... It’s pretty awesome but if you could make it a little more smoother/clear/HD on the "Apple TV 4K" that be awesome too. But other than that its worth the price tag 👍

An amazing game but…. Only getting the mobile version is a crime and pc or console version just feels better to use once you try pc or console versions something just feels off on mobile version and it feels like the games colour is dulled on mobile. So for everyone who’s only played the mobile version please try the of version with a controller (or console version). It just feels better when playing.

One of the best games I’ve played. The graphics are beautiful, the gameplay is just perfect, everything is so well engineered and amazing boss fights. I would suggest getting it on a computer or console

Damn good rogue like. Real good

Final boss unbeatable. For us who don’t have insane skill or up-to-date device, pls lower the final boss difficulty so we can actually progress pls.

Well done and super fun!. Love it

J'adore le jeux. Génial

Beautiful game. (Before I write my review, if anyone reads this and has issues with the frame rate, go to the gameplay options and remove the 30 FPS limit) First of all, this game is beautiful. I have never seen anything quite like it, the particles when you break door or the blood splatter look gorgeously barbaric and messy. The gameplay is something to behold too, the combat is really immersive and learning each enemy’s attack patterns proves to be quite challenging Overall, incredible game. The price tag really is scary when you look at it, but you won’t regret your purchase.

It’s ok, needs more customization for builds. Like more traits and mutations, needs a real time co-op and pvp/pve mode.

Beautiful. Before this game, I didn’t have a gf, I was poor, and I had a small pp, none of that has changed but this game is pretty good

So good. This is like if the chick from Metroid had a baby with the dark souls guy. Highly enjoyable, I feel like I’m 12 and just got a Nintendo for the first time

BRUV. Castlevania is the best DLC expansion there ever is

Great game. I just love it

Good. Good

One of the best mobile ports I've played!. Originally got this for PC a few years back. I'm surprised how well this game stays true to the original design, and the flexibility included for mobile players. Looking forward to seeing if I can keep this as my main phone game for as long as possible!

Aaron Prince. Best way to describe this game is dark souls meets super Mario with random world generator. Hands down best mobile rpg game. 10/10

I love this game. I have this game on my Xbox and I just found out that it can be played on the phone and it makes me feel happy now that I can play it even when I’m not at home

Best mobile game. Amazing

Good game. Super good story, and game

As all things should be.. Bought it, played it, bought most of the DLCs pretty quick. Dead Cells has the perfect balance between "slaying everything that dares to be in your presence" and "whoops, you overextended and now you're out."

Literally the only mobile game I’ve played that feels like a console. It’s dead smooth and the gameplay looks and FEELS satisfying and impactful. Once in a blue moon I’ll die due to bad “thumb stick” registration (I don’t play with a controller), and it is frustrating, but it’s mobile—it’s better than it has any right to be.

AMAZING ROUGE STYLE GAME. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

Need more customization for joysticks and keys. We need to be able to customize the size of joysticks zone and the location of joysticks when disable the floating pad. I also wish that we can be able to make all keys transparent so they won’t block my sight. I already have the white king outfit and these problems are frustrating.

Still a great game. Worth the price!. Fun!

辣鸡骗子 Garbage Cheating Game. 之前还显示支持中文，买了之后中文被你吃了？ It has shown that will support Chinese language, but when I purchased that, you deleted that! Did you just eat that? Was that delicious? That was totally a cheating! I would give 0.1 star if I can do so:(

One of the best games!. This game has been amazing, it’s replay value is awesome, the DLC are great, it’s got pretty much everything a metroidvania game need! Keep up the awesome work guys Ps peeps if you have a controller for your phone like a backbone it’s a even better experience

The game always get bigger. About a year i dint play and so much new stuff for free ! Going to buy castlevania for sure !!!

Good game 5/5 star. My uncle left bc I love this game so much they call me peper parker

.. Game fun

Deadcells is fantastic except....... I love this game!!! I own it on 4 different platforms. The IOS version is great, it works on iPad iPhone & appleTV. The game is awesome with incredible replay value. My only concerns are the game is a little too intense to REALLY experience everything it has toffee using a touch screen and there seems to be no D-pad support in this version when using a controller. The left analog stick is used to control your character and while still fun this game requires such precise movement I wish I had the option to use D-pad instead of the analog stick. Other than that this game is worth the money. 👍🏽👍🏽

Dead Cells FTW. First off, this game is amazing. The gameplay works flawlessly on mobile; have yet to try it on a different system, but I’m not reviewing those versions of the game so yeah. The ability to place where each button stays on the screen is perfect. The difficulty stays the same depending on if you adjust it after your first successful run. Weapons and equipment change constantly making the game extremely addicting. I easily sink 2-3 hours a day playing. AND they constantly update the game with free patches and dlc. Totally worth the price, I would recommend to anyone who’s a fan of both side scrollers and difficult games!

Greatest Rogue-like on iOS. Dead Cells has possibly the tightest, most responsive and satisfying gameplay I’ve ever played in a 2D action game. The art is beautiful and not overly pixilated, which many games get wrong. The runs feel unique and thoughtful due to the variety of weapons,upgrades, and items. The game allow you to make unique and efficient builds for each run. The only downside to me is that since the game is originally a PC/Console game, the port has to make use of touch controls which are not ideal, but connecting a controller has never been easier and is worth it!

Awesome game to pick up and play until you die. I have this game on Xbox through “game pass”, I bought the game on the Switch to play while on the go, and now on iOS to play when having the switch out is impossible (work) LoL. The game plays the same on all devices. The game play is very fluid, don’t be discouraged if you die (is in the name of the game). As you play the boards change up a little and the enemies get harder and harder. But you unlock more items to make it a little easier. If you want the same game that’s available everywhere else but for $8 here it’s a no brainer. Oh and controllers work with this game. Which is a huge plus for me cause I hate touch screen games.

Good game weird controls. I really enjoy this game but my one thing that I would make me give it five stars would have to be better implemented controls. The dash feels kind of awkward to use, and for people with iPhone X and above the control for movement is at a weird part of the screen. Though it does give the ability to move it, it moves every time your finger moves which is really annoying in fast pace situations. I would suggest making it so we can move it and have it be stationary afterwards. Overall, fix this and find a better dash mechanic and it would be 5 stars :D

Incredible indie experience. I love this game so much. Not only for its variety of weapons and items to discover and places to explore, but also for its character crossovers. I heard about this game from the Risk of Rain community when Dead Cells made a Commando crossover character from ror2. Hearing this was very exciting as a play on console and still haven’t received risk of rain’s newest dlc. I was also looking for a new rouge like to play and saw this as a perfect choice. This game just keeps getting better the more I play and I can’t wait to unlock all the characters

Understandable, but still hard to control. In dealing with mobile games like this, it’s really hard to get the perfect button layout, as well as actually do what you want to do. An example would be sometimes your taps just not registering, and you dying as a consequence. This doesn’t happen extremely often, but the uncertainty of wether or not it’s gonna work really bugs me. This is an excellent job of porting the game, it’s just the console that’s the problem. I really like auto attack because I can make the other buttons bigger, with a higher chance of registering. But sometimes(with shielded mobs, or when you’re trying to run away)it’s a real problem. So as of now it’s still a work in progress.

Wowza!. This game is really great. To Devs: Possible fixes/ideas they could do: - transparency settings for buttons and joystick - change position and sizing of joystick (maybe add a D-pad) - audio bug - keeps replaying sound of boss attack even though I'm on different level (have to back out app because noise gets annoying) I don't really write reviews but this game made me want to tell people about so the devs would port the updated version. Please Playdigious! I'd pay for the DLC and update. I don't own a console or gaming PC so I'll just wait for this. Please update!! I'd love more content!!! _________________________________________________ And you, yea you random person scrolling reviews to see if this game is worth it. This game is definitely worth it! $9 for a $25 dollar game! Even though it's a port of an earlier version still. A game of this caliber for that price?!?! It does need some practice though so some of those reviews complaining just need to "Get Gud." I hope this review sways some people to give this game a shot! Thank you for reading!

Awesome mobile game. This game is awesome, my friend had me play it on ps4 and I loved it. I started school again recently and this game is a great time consumer, however it’s fun in general. Long trip coming up or boring school? This game is great. If you are looking to play this game for real I would say buy it on console or computer. I mean if you don’t have a console/computer to play on or don’t want to spend about $20 on the game then this is perfect. I was surprised at how well it controls on the phone, well optimized. In conclusion, this game is great on mobile, even better on console/computer though but that’s a given.

Replay value for YEARS!!!. I think I can call this my favorite video game of all time. Nothing has ever hit the mark so well. I’ve been into this game since the very beginning, taken long breaks and I always come back to find they’ve added more cool content. Nothing else really compares… Hades definitely comes close but I eventually found that repetitive. The lightheartedness and cruelty of this game keep me coming back. Thank you devs, I’ve read stories about your process and I can’t wait to see what the future holds for metroidvanian roguelike games, you guys really set the bar high.

I can’t get enough more dlcs everything I would pay. So many free updates amazing. No ads and a awesome console version. This game is one the best been playing before all dlc and it was still amazing to me. I beat on 5 bc and it was hard but still a fun experience! Keep up the good work! And I would love to see a dessert dlc I feel like that or snow would be awesome but desserts are pretty and would definitely love to see what you guys would do with it. but keep making dlcs there some of the best I’ve played and keep updating.

Please fix auto-hit. I love this game and I think it’s best played on mobile (despite touch screen controls), which makes auto-hit a necessity for this game when played without a controller. But it’s so frustrating that the auto-hit engages before you’re within range of an enemy, and often gets you stuck in a battle with now way to jump or dodge away. Jump and dodge should always override the auto-hit. I shouldn’t get stuck surrounded by enemies. Other than that I totally love this game. I actually should just get one of those mobile dock controllers I guess to play with auto-hit off.

Excellent game. Minor issue. This is probably the best game I’ve come across on iOS. Certainly the game that I’ve spent the most time on. I must have completely 1000 runs by this point. But please fix the controls (the touchpad specifically). It is rather difficult to always touch at the exact center of the touchpad whether it is fixed or moving, causing erroneous actions like spiking straight into an enemy attack when trying to jump. A better way would be to simply have the touchpad disappear when the finger is removed.

BUY THIS GAME ASAP. Game is amazing, been playing it forever on my xbox and its so great to play it now on my phone. Its not some cheap port either, this is the real deal full Dead Cells. No greedy microtransactions, no freemium pay-to-win, just a genuine full game packed with content and a bit of love. Touch controls do take some getting used to, but you get to remap them as you see fit, or just use a controller since it actually has proper support for them! I'm legitimately struggling to find a flaw with the game, nothing comes to mind really other than "I WANT MORE STUFF!"

Exceptional game. I love the concept of having the game RIGHT IN YOUR POKET. Also the game could use a different button layout, but other than that, ITS AMAZING. I originally played this game on switch and NOTHING had changed I love that about the game. The concept didn’t change the bosses; still the same and many other things. One last thing. The thing about the button layout. That needs to change a bit slightly and maybe make it controller compatible, but that’s my only concern. SHOUT OUT TO: Greatking101 on twitch for liking this. Also HUGE thanks to the producers to make this iOS compatible!

Absolutely phenomenal game. From the first time you enter the game and meet your charmingly sarcastic and brutal character, you realize this game will be a one of a kind experience. The never ending change of the levels keeps you exploring always search for the right way that may or may not lead you straight into a secret room or along-the-route shop. Meanwhile the relentless enemies and environmental obstacles provide a challenge that keeps you on your toes while enticing you to try harder. The numerous weapons and equipments that can be found and unlocked provides an amazing amount of combinations to help you push your way just a little bit further than your previous blunder. And the secrets laid within the game will satisfy those who love and crave exploring the full map and game. The story is intriguing and mysterious as you try to understand who and what you are and why you are here through the many rooms and characters you meet. Every playthrough is different and unique. So sit back, stuggle a little, and enjoy an amazingly brutal experience.

iPhone 8!!. 😮 😯 😲 omg!! this game is superb in every way. Haven’t played on console or steam but, having it on iOS is a real treat to have with the same precise experience as on PC and consoles. First by saying the controls are buttery smooth, buttery responsive without any delays on touch responses. The graphics of course is phenomenal, expressing how beautiful the pixel art is amazing...and the progression of the non linear dungeons are top notch!!! I recommend to buy this!!!! Hmmm, even tho hyper light drifter has more downloads and ratings....from my experience, dead cells should get more downloads and ratings 🤔😁!!! Just because it is more fluid, fast paced, better action of hack and slash, and even better graphics!!! Honestly a 5 star game!!!👍🏾

Phenomenal, but one small glitch. This game is absolutely amazing. Its hard and takes time to get better, but its a super fun journey. Even better, the touch controls are really polished, which I know is a hard thing to get right. My only complaint is that frequently, when i attack or use my shield, especially if its in the top right slot, then swipe right to dodge to the right, my character will dodge to the left. That’s super frustrating, and had gotten me killed more than a few times. Besides that though, this game is a must try!

Great Game, but overshadowed by the Console and PC version. Dead Cells is a great mobile game. With tons of weapons, mutations, and strategies, players have nearly unlimited ways to approach monsters and bosses. The game was adapted from the PC and Console version to a mobile game, and the developers did a great job with it. My only complaint is that while the PC Dead Cells has been updated adding new biomes, skins, and gameplay; the mobile version hasn’t seen much change from the day it was released. It would be great to keep the game updated to the PC and Console versions. Other than that, great game, would 100% buy again.

9.9/10 amazing, just one little idea though. Hey I love the game it’s super fun and awesome I just have this one idea you could possibly do, it could be like a super secret and complicated secret quest thing but the cursed sword is part of it, and if you manage to beat the quest you get like a holy variant, where it makes the game slightly easier by it doing really good damage and instead of just instant killing you if you get hit by the smallest little speck of dust, it ticks your health down over time but it doesn’t count to the score of how many enemies you killed in a row, if it sounds stupid I know, I just thought it’d be a neat idea

Love it, just One thing bugs me. When using a MiFi controller, the threshold for Down on a joystick is too large. I’ll be intending to go forward in the air and jump but I’ll instead zoom downward for a ground smash because my joystick was just downward enough for the game to think I wanted to go down. I play this on iPad, iPhone and Apple TV and it’s the same problem. I also have this on my Nintendo Switch and I’ve never had that issue. All that being said, I’m totally addicted to the game and every platform I’ve played it on was more then worth what I paid for it.

Best game. I played this game on Xbox and it was really good and that was the first of playing this game and I had know idea it was on mobile until I saw it and I was like this must be fake but as soon I found on App Store I loved this game I like terraria and it’s good that there’s terraria to good game if there was 10 rating I would rate it 10/10 just since there’s some hard bosses and elites I would like to see a player damage in the assist mode because I’m stuck on the throne room and it’s taking me 2 months to try and defeat it so could you add a player damage so you could increase and decrease you damage please.

Having a Blast. This is my new favorite mobile game, no question. All I gotta say is once you really learn the controls and how the game works, that’s when everything starts running smoothly as you hack and slash your way through, using all your gadgets you’ve acquired along the way. I saw one person in the reviews complain about Dead Cells’ death mechanic, but it is literally the core of the game from my understanding. You go through a run with your blueprints and knowledge, die, then use what you’ve learned and acquired go get farther in the next run. 10/10 best mobile game I’ve ever bought. I’ve even half tempted to buy it on Steam or Xbox so I can truly appreciate this game.

High caliber game. This is one of the best games out there, especially on iPad Pro with a controller, but it’s great on iPhone with touch or controller too. The gameplay is so snappy. Graphics are EXTREMELY satisfying and lore is interesting enough so you won’t get bored when playing for long periods. This is a roguelike-like game. Some progress is saved between runs such as gold, runes, and items discovered, but you restart from the first level after death. This isn’t temple run infinite but it is World of Warcraft interesting. My favorite thing is that you can change graphics settings and food theme.

Yeeesh!. Not the best mobile game fan but this is another level. Dead cells gives you the best a of retro platform and adds just enough modern elements to keep anyone entertained. Not to mention even dying from something you feel was unfair (even if you know it wasn’t) still keeps you going. The game is very fair and you see your progress with permanent runes and abilities. My only gripe I would say is that the boss fights can be few and far between so getting back to a particular one could take some time but nonetheless it’s a joy getting there to begin with.

Wow. Wow is all I can say, this game is so much fun. The game makes me feel like I’m at the edge of my seat, the closer you get to dying you start to tense up everything makes you panic it gets your blood going this game is so much fun, it gets rlly intense at moments it’s such a good feeling. Sometimes this game will make me start shaking lol. I couldn’t stop shaking after I completed the 1st and 2nd dungeon. I was so tense I could barely open my mouth to eat some food. It’s a great game, I definitely recommend it. If you don’t mind feeling the intense feeling that is. Try it out u won’t regret it ;)

Shield bug. I like the game, I was pretty excited to start playing it, but within 30 minutes of me playing it I have already found a pretty terrible bug. The starter shield will sometimes just start to always ready itself and it just completely halts the game. In order to fix it you need to exit and reenter the game from the loading screen. It’s kinda disheartening to find this big of a bug in a game you paid $8 for. But aside from that, I think that it’s a pretty good game. The controls are a little difficult at first but you can change them to your needs. I would say that the game is a good game to have, but wait for a little bit so they can fix the shield bug.

Amazing game!!!. What can I say about Dead Cells that hasn’t already been said. Awesome experience playing on my iPad with a controller. Just as good as playing on my TV but wherever I want. Can’t speak for the touch screen controls as I have only really played with a controller, but I did check them out briefly and the seemed serviceable. This is a game that really needs to be played with a controller, so much quick twitch responses that I’m sure the touch screen would frustrate eventually, especially when trying to rack up kills without getting hit for the special doors or for cursed chests. But I digress...get this game!!! $10 is more than worth it!

One of the best mobile games I’ve ever played. At first, the game seems tedious and redundant, but that’s only because I didn’t really understand it. The first bit of the game is rough, and it’s very strategic. Whether sprinting through the levels avoiding death to get the time bonus, or taking your time stacking gold and upgrades to become stronger, and all in between, it doesn’t get old. At first I though $9 was ridiculous for a mobile game, especially because at first glance it appears to have minimal playability. I often look at gaming like I should get an hour out of something for ever dollar I play. I could see this game entering my full rotation, and putting in over a hundred hours over the course of the next year. If you like fast paced games you can pick up at any time, this is your game! If you like games that progress slowly but surely, this is your game! This game is both casual and extremely intense at times, and I think it should be in everyone’s collection!

A+ game; frame pacing issues on iPad Pro. This is the best Metroidvania I’ve ever played. It’s incredibly fair and beautiful and balanced. I’d recommend another version of it to anyone. My only issue relates to frame pacing on the iPad Pro 11-inch. The 30fps lock mode creates a very weird timing issue that others have complained about online. Fortunately there’s an uncapped mode too, which is quite inconsistent (and sometimes stutters) but at least runs better overall. The game is uglier and harder to play as a result. This may or may not be a problem for the standard 60fps iPads, but it’s an odd problem for a machine as powerful as this one.

Awesome Game, But Huge Audio Bug. It’s not a question that Dead Cells is worth the price. It has a rich and mysterious plot. Great graphics. For the most part, it’s audio is just as good. However...I have an IPhone 8 Plus and I bought this game when it came out in the AppStore. For some reason, after the first level, my audio, in varying two seconds intervals, becomes disastrous. I think the sound is connected to a water/liquid sound file. Hearing the audio breaking up violently makes the game unplayable. Unless of course you mute the game...

This is the perfect mobile game.. Shout out to the developers for making this mobile port of the game PERFECT. I’ve been wanting to play this game on pc and once I seen it was coming out on mobile I decided to wait and hoped it would turn out to be done well on the mobile version. They nailed it he controls are some of he best I’ve used and it runs absolutely great. No pay to win just a small fee for a limitless amount of time you could spend playing this game. Great job guys if there is any dlc I would happily support you guys with a few extra dollars. Also. I don’t play mobile games ever this is the first mobile game I’ve ever spent money on.

I’m speechless. This game is phenomenal. There’s a bit of charm to it in its dark setting. The sense of progression you get from this game is unparalleled. You never feel as though you were cheated by dying. You need to die to progress in some areas anyways. This game is a fair one and a fun one at that. There’s so much to do in this game and despite its price being a bit high for something on the App Store You won’t find a better game for this cheap. You cannot go wrong with this game as its rewarding and any challenge it poses is easily defeated by skillful play 👍👍👍

Dead Cells is like SoulsBorne and Metroidvania conceived a love child. Yooooo, this game is cooking with gas fam. On the real, like hunnid real talk, breh. Oh my god I don't understand how kids, let alone adults from ages 19-29 can talk like that and take themselves seriously. This game is tough, be prepared to die a lot. The map changes every time you die. It's a lot like SoulsBorne titles. If you like the idea of a Metroidvania framework and foundation, but with sousborne mechanics and functions, melded into one. You got Dead Cells. Simple, repetitive, but the RNG for the map and enemy placement does keep a good job at preventing me from falling into a pattern of mundanity. Play it. You'll like it.

Best MetroidRogueVania. I really can’t say enough great things about this game. It’s repetitive in the sense that you die a lot and play through the same level set but the gameplay is challenging and addictive and I love the assortment of weapons that makes each run through the game feel unique and almost like a different game at times. You can play with a whip and shield on one run where it feels like castlevania and on the next hiyabusa boots and gauntlet and it will feel like a brawler. If you don’t mind a good challenge, don’t even second guess it, it’s rewarding and addictive.

Best Platform or Metroidvania game ever.. This is classic hard gameplay, with satisfying controls. The port to iOS is smooth. The combat is better than any Castlevania, including Symphony of the Night. Story is as interesting as Super Metroid for SNES. Replay-ability is high do to randomized dungeons. The game is unforgiving but every time you die you feel like it’s your fault. After a few areas you get into a flow-state and are ripping through enemies faster than you can think or you can take your time and plan out each attack. I haven’t beaten it yet but I’ve spent many hours on the PC version and everything translates. Having a game like this with the portability of mobile devices is pretty amazing.

Hands down best platform adventure game. If Super Ghouls and Ghosts hooked up with Prince of Persia and then someone mixed in a sprinkle of Another World along with a bit of Monkey Island humor you might get something like this. The pace of unlocking weapons and buffs that you keep for subsequent runs is spot on. Finding secrets and gaining new skills through runes, combined with semi-changing levels each time keeps it fresh. Knowing I need to gain a skill to access a certain area motivates me to explore. Speed running the first two levels to gain bonuses is always good for a quick fix session too. I love changing the weapon modifiers to get killer combos.

Would be 5 star if they had music support. Yes, I get it. The developer wants the gamer to experience the soundtrack and all of the sound design that went into the game. But when you’ve heard the same selection of songs and background sounds for 100+ hours it isn’t magical anymore. Being able to jam to your own music and absolutely clear floors of enemies would bring another dimension of fun to the game. I’ve searched for other mobile games to do this with and none of them gave me the joy dead cells did. I’m begging you mobile dead cell developers please make this one simple change in your next update.

One request. I don’t have much to complain about because this game is 😉 the one thing(actually 2) that I have a problem with are the settings. Please add a setting that turns off the blood because I feel a little weird when I see blood splatter along the wall, I’m just one of those people, the other thing is that can you add the control stick when you can change the button size so it can be bigger, that is just a picky request so if it is not done I will understand. Please keep up the great work👍🏾

Amazing Phone Port of an Amazing Game. I’ve played quite a bit of Dead Cells on my PS5 but while out of town, saw they had it for IOS and decided to give it a shot. The game runs and plays very smoothly on my phone. The touch screen controls are definitely more difficult to use than a controller, but they aren’t bad and definitely playable. There’s also the option of using a controller so if you really don’t like the touch screen you can connect a controller. Highly recommend! Not an easy game but very fun and addicting!

Just amazing. What can I say that hasn’t been said before about dead cells. Its a challenging rougelite dungeon crawler. The game is tons of fun to play and no matter the bc level player can still have fun. Its offline and the controls were brought over very well to mobile. The game runs smoothly which is great for a game that hinges on quick actions and decisions. The only issue is the difficulty but thats basically the selling point of the game. If you love an absolute challenge of fun then this is the perfect game to just sit down and play

An Excellent In-Game Adventure. At first my eyes was caught with the fancy yet seems easy gameplay of this game and was super excited to play this game. Yet it turned out to be a very hard game that requires many hours of learning your own mistakes, but the experience thrilling mixed with a little of rage. I would totally recommend this game to every gamer that thrills with the try hard experience. Although it haven’t quite caught up with the latest update on Pc, it still brings a much pleasure time and I do hope for the developer to give out the updates as soon as possible for all the gamers to enjoy.

Great game, tricky controls. Dead Cells is a challenging game with a ton of variety. It always feels like you have room to improve. Mobile controls can be tough to master though. It’s easy to miss a button, especially because it’s harder to build muscle memory on a touchscreen compared to a physical controller. I eventually got used to it and got pretty good, but it’s a big part of the learning curve. I think the developers did a great job with accessibility aids and customizable button placement, but it’s just an inherent drawback of playing on your phone.

Unique and refreshing game.. This game doesn’t feel like a bunch of recycled parts that end up being like 10 other games. The play style is great having to choose between tactics, brutality, or survival. The first time I had to start the game over I thought it would be frustrating but it makes you want to play again and again since each time you come back to life is a different experience. The game is rewarding and even if you get 45 minutes in and have to start over, the loot system makes it possible to start over with better weapons in the beginning to make you feel like all your hard work wasn’t for nothing. Love this game!

First review in 6+ years of iOS. Honestly, I wouldn’t of left a review unless it asked me too, but this game fully deserves all the recognition. I’ve played every game you can think of and constantly install and uninstall with the exception of a few games, like this one. Every week I browse the App Store in hopes of a new find and am extremely grateful to have come across Dead Cells. This game has everything you could ever want and is worth every penny. I highly recommend Dead Cells to any type of gamer out there, if I could rate this higher than 5 stars I would, 10/10.

Amazing. This game is amazing. I first bought it on the switch after watching a trailer for it. Loved it immediately it is now one of my favorite games of all time. When they said they were coming out with a mobile port I knew it would be good and it did not disappoint. They have ported this thing over beautifully and the touch controls work great. It really is fine with touch controls if you’re worried about that trust me it’s just fine. Totally worth the 8 bucks or whatever it cost believe me it’s a full fledged game no crap no IAP just pure platforming zombie smashing awesomeness!

Fantastic Game. Easily one the best games on the App Store, paired with an iPad Pro and a Controller makes it even better. The amount of weapons and outcomes that are possible makes it feel like I’m playing a different game each time, I will say I wish there was a report a bug option in game because I am constantly bombarded with the same achievement unlocked when I’m in a play through and their are hitches even capped on 60FPS (The M1 iPad). Give this game a try, you will not be disappointed and to top it off the DLC is actually reasonable priced.

Dead Cells is an amazing game but…. First off, let me say Dead Cells is one of my all time favorite games, and I’ve been gaming since ‘85. The game itself is 5 stars with no questions. I have 2 issues with this port on my iPad Pro though. Number one, the game locks you into using the analog sticks when using a PS5 controller. This game really needs to be played with a d-pad IMO. Second, I keep getting this audio glitch that interrupts the background music with noise that loops every second or two, and it’s EXTREMELY annoying. With that said, I’m so addicted I’ve bought this game 3 times, once when it was first released, once to get the collectors edition and again to have it on my big, beautiful iPad screen. YOU SHOULD BUY IT NOW!

B.F. Skinner and John Watson would be proud ..... The game ”shapes” the player’s actions and to some extent the game is shaped as well. Use of variable ratio/variable reward schedules and various forms of positive and negative reinforcement e.g. coins, weapons, special gems, encourage or increase gaming activity; and specifically the negative reinforcement of returning to the beginning albeit a “different beginning”, with added degrees of difficulty as one “ advances” makes it appear like progress versus punishment for failure. But I will say “the punishment” aspect of game to the player has a way of supporting the emergence of aggression and fear, which I believe can potentially be emotionally harmful to the unsuspecting player that takes this reinforced “aggression” out on real life.

Best Action Game on iOS. This game is a rush. I never get tired of it. It wants to kill me, but I love fighting back. I have to mention that I use a PS4 controller to play, so I can’t comment on the touch controls. But it’s flawless in my experience with the controller. When I’m not totally absorbed in the intense action and my own determination to battle onward, I’m blown away by the attention to detail in the pixel art and atmospheric effects. It strikes an incredible balance between challenge and fun, and freshness and familiarity in each play through.
