Critic Reviews
XboxEra
By Jesse NorrisDead Cells is an all-time classic. As part of Xbox Game Pass it is one of the easiest recommendations I’ve ever made on this site/channel. It is tough but fair. It finds that perfect balance of teaching you as you fail, and you will find yourself thinking “Just one more run” time and time again as the hours pass by.
Forever Classic Games
By Alex McCumbersEven years after the initial release, even after games are starting to cite Dead Cells as their main inspiration, this game is surprisingly good.
Cat with Monocle
By Brian ParaMasterfully crafted pixel-based visuals, replayability galore, and great controls make Dead Cells a must have for fans of the roguevania genre. For everyone else, be prepared for endure countless deaths, but know that you’ll feel like a badass by the end. Docked or on the go, Dead Cells earns itself a solid 4 meows!
GameOctane
By Beau SeversonDead Cells is one of the first games I feel has pushed the rogue-like action platformer since Rogue Legacy, a classic in its own right. Definitely find this game on PC or Switch.
Digital Trends
By Diego Arguello‘Dead Cells' is a chaotic, punishing, and rewarding indie game that cannot be missed.
