Crypt of the Necrodancer Reviews
Crypt of the Necrodancer joins Hand of Fate as one of the best indie titles this year whose innovation speaks load and clear, giving credence to the better side of Steam Early Access and to well-tuned, well-crafted design.
Crypt of the NecroDancer accomplishes what few games even attempt to do. It merges together two completely different genres: rhythm and roguelike. The frustrations of both come as part of the package, but some intelligent design decisions help to alleviate the issue. For those looking for the next gaming obsession after the likes of Spelunky, Binding of Isaac, or Rogue Legacy, look no further than Crypt of the NecroDancer.
Crypt of the Necrodancer is a brilliant, fresh spin on the roguelike genre. It's uncompromisingly tough, but its pattern-learning, beat-matching gameplay is also highly addictive and very rewarding to play.
Rhythm and roguelike sync up in a fun twist on a common concept.
Finding your flow in the music feels incredible – until you're crushed by some procedurally generated monstrosity for the umpteenth time
A beautifully designed, tough, and cheerful roguelike that rewards perseverance with a singular feeling of finesse.
An inspired rhythm-action roguelike powered by an excellent soundtrack. You'll dig it.
