About this game

Death is not the end.
Play as a failed alchemic experiment and explore the sprawling, ever-changing castle to find out what happened on this gloomy island…!
That is, assuming you’re able to fight your way past its keepers.

Dead Cells is a roguevania action platformer that will require you to master frantic 2D combat with a wide variety of weapons and skills against merciless minions and boss.

Kill. Die. Learn. Repeat.

First available on PC and consoles, the indie hit Dead Cells is now slaying foes on mobile!

Main Features
• Roguevania: The progressive exploration of an interconnected world, with the replayability of a rogue-lite and the adrenaline pumping threat of permadeath

• Frantic and Dynamic 2D Action: Learn your enemies’ patterns to stay alive, or prepare to be sent back to your cell before you can say “baguette”

• Nonlinear Progression: Unlock new levels with every death, opt for the path that suits your current build, your playstyle or just your mood.
Surely, the ramparts can’t be as bad the sewers, right?

• Play at your own pace: Will you explore every nook and cranny of the castle, or rush to the end?

*Latest updates are available: Clean Cut & The End is Near*

THIS GAME IS AMAZING AND SO ADDICTING AND AM PROUD TO PAY FOR THIS GAME, IT WAS SO SO WORTH IT. Please, the trial run at the beginning of the game pkease give us an option to set the timer to unlimited, because it would be so much FUN and such an AMAZING and Satisfying option to play through the levels. The idea of starting from the start with just but a sword really gices you a thrill and very hard but very enjoyable and even if you die I can't even get mad because it's so much FUN!!!!!!!!!!!

2D Dark Souls at simplest, more expansive than most games on mobile due to the amount of content you get for free without paying in the first place. Though I'd recommend the DLC content for more variety when it comes to your runs. It's even got more customisability options for your characters, no pay to win bs, and it all comes down to your skill. Truly the One Piece of gaming media that keeps me engaged despite the fact it Is a mobile port. It's a Really great port at that too.

Played this in my PS4 first and was pleasantly surprised that there was a mobile version...absolutely amazing game. The fighting and core mechanics are juet as awesome and fluid as they are on consoles. There IS a downside in playing it on my phone though. Graphics are - understandably - less crisp; and the touch controls are horrendously difficult. I would STRONGLY suggest using a gamepad. Note 10+ user here with a PS4 controller.
