Kirby's Take: PROS - Fun game and good value for the price. - Gameplay is similar to VS and similar "survivor" titles. - Day and night cycle is a neat mechanic - each playable character feels unique with an interesting variety of powers and Ultimate attacks - The addition of loot is a neat idea opening up build options for characters. - presentation is nice great music and visuals - overal game is fun and easy to pick up and play CONS - Unfortunatly inventory system is extremely clunky with no sorting or bulk options. - limited weapon pool and combinations means most runs feel similar. - Each level has 11 levels of difficulty, which is a bit excessive for a game like this. - one in game misson where you have to collect 3 gobletts, doesnt give you enough time to complete it.

Ótimo jogo Bullet Heaven! A jogabilidade é satisfatória, e a arte trás um conforto para o estilo do jogo. A interação dos itens e as animações mesmo com aspecto de pixeis é bem fluida. É muito divertido buscar maximizar as habilidades e montar estratégias, além de haver várias conquistas para se fazer, o que incentiva na questão de objetivos e noção para onde quer chegar. O jogo em sí é realmente muito bom, a única coisa que me incomoda é que não há um modo acelerado ou algo parecido (até onde joguei), o que acaba sendo chato já que eu gostaria muito jogar mais desse jogo, mas pensar em ficar tanto tempo em uma run tira meu interesse de tentar fazer várias partidas seguidas. Recomendado. Vale sim o preço.

I have never have so little idea wtf was happening in a game. This is theoretically a bullet heaven. You open the game and there’s no intro, no explanations, nothing, you’re just catapulted into this series of menus with increasingly elaborate skilltrees some of which already have points applied and no explanation for anything. There’s not even normal stats, there’s Faith, Occult, and something else I don’t remember, and those cover random arrays of normal stats, like 6 each. All the skill trees and menus require different currency to interact with — there’s at least 4 difference currencies — and no tooltips, quest list, or tutorial. So eventually I just started a game to see what would happen, and you get what looks like a [url=https://i0.wp.com/www.dragon-quill.net/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/wth.png]tutorial screen[/url], but reading it is so unhelpful that it actually makes things more confusing. Real [url=https://i0.wp.com/64.media.tumblr.com/abde3ba698f0942574ed4413912474be/06334fb6ab29742d-47/s1280x1920/d74d644023819913dccaea0cc96e03d6b5217a02.png]"I know what all the words mean, but together, I find them confusing"[/url] energy. But that’s the entire tutorial, so off we go! I wish I could say it’s basic VS gameplay, but there’s pickups that don’t clearly do anything (and no tooltips, so who knows!), I keep getting messages that I’d completed quests I didn’t know I was on (a personal favorite was “You’ve found the Egg for the Alchemists!” ok buddy sure), and the map was full of enormous trees both enemies and I would get stuck in. I had summons that were identical to enemies that I kept thinking were attacking me, and every now and then I’d just take random damage even though I was standing alone in a clearing. I had two runs end because my character just suddenly exploded for no reason; in one case the postgame screen said “Victory!” even though I’d apparently spontaneously combusted. There’s also apparently a gacha-style equipment system in play, because sure there is, which I didn’t have the wherewithal to interact with. The Steam forums are full of threads of people going, “Hey would you guys consider explaining what the ♥♥♥♥ is going on at the beginning?”, the answer to which is apparently “lolno.” I did know going in to this that the reviews were not great, but I nonetheless wasn’t prepared for just how bizarre the experience was. I can’t imagine opening this having not played a VSlike before. Surreal. Also… why is the game called ‘Scarlet Tower’? What is the Scarlet Tower? Where is it? What does it have to do with anything? Why are any of us here?

TOO MUCH GRINDING!

[h3][b]When a gameplay loop is built well, it becomes very hard to leave the next run for later[/b][/h3] I liked Scarlet Tower because it does not settle for just copying the formula of surviving waves and stacking upgrades. The foundation is familiar, yes, but the gothic tone, the day and night cycle, the classes, and the familiars give it a much stronger identity than I expected. What stood out most to me is the constant sense of growth it builds, the kind where every run leaves me with a different build in mind and the urge to push a little further. I enjoyed it mostly because of that balance between chaos and planning. Even when the screen is full of enemies, I usually felt like I was building something instead of just surviving on autopilot. It is still a loop driven game, so if I play it for too many hours in a row, the repetition starts to show. Even so, I recommend it to players who enjoy progression, builds, and games that are easy to get into but have enough depth to keep them around for a while.

게임 만들다 말고 1년 넘게 유기중. 살필요 없음.

É um ótimo jogo, me alegra em saber que seu criador é BR. Joguem essa maravilha!
