  • Summary: Heart&Slash is a 3D brawler roguelike robot love story set in a world where machines are all that remains from human civilization. You play as Heart, a sentient robot fighting to escape the grip of the evil and all seeing machine QuAsSy (Quality Assurance Systems). But make no mistake,Heart&Slash is a 3D brawler roguelike robot love story set in a world where machines are all that remains from human civilization. You play as Heart, a sentient robot fighting to escape the grip of the evil and all seeing machine QuAsSy (Quality Assurance Systems). But make no mistake, Heart&Slash is no walk in the park. Every death is permanent and means a new randomly generated level for you to start over with a different set of weapons and items you can use, new enemies to fight and secrets to explore. Heart&Slash offers players something new and challenging because it is not about mastering one system, rather adapting to what is provided and making the most of it. [Playstation.com]… Expand

    Besides a camera straight from Robot Hell, there’s a real Heart to this little indie brawler.

    One of the best rogue-like games that you can play nowadays that features a perfect recreation of the third dimension. This game will certainly entertain you and challenge you again and again.

    Heart & Slash is an unforgiving but rewarding entry into the brawler genre.

    Aside from some glaring camera issues and the odd technical blemish, Heart&Slash presents exactly what the title suggests: a lot of slashing, and a lot of heart.

    For a game without a single living thing in its world, it has a lot of heart.

    It has some ideas, design-wise, that won't enjoy many players, although some others might love them. Make sure you understand its peculiarities because, if you're ok with them, you can find a fun, challenging and very special game here.

    Heart&Slash has some enjoyable moments. The weapon and armour unlocks coupled with the randomly generated levels will keep you coming back, but ultimately, the experience is let down by unfair encounters and repetitive combat. It's a quirky combination of roguelike and brawler that will leave fans of either genre disappointed.

I feel like it had potential, but it just wasn't as good as I hoped it would be. It's not bad, but it was disappointing.… Expand

    Not a bad idea, but mediocre implementation. The locations are the same and it's just too lazy to understand them, it's just boring to play it.
