If you don't mind grind this game offers tons of replay-ability either solo or with a group and in my personal opinion shines with with a full party.
   Inti Creates in my humble opinion only knows how to make great games and this, for me, its their best work yet!
   Its a perfect mix between a looter like Diablo where you go to dungeons in order to grind and tough as nails action platforms like the very own INTI titles Megaman Zero or Gunvolt!
   
   Strong Points:
   Art style is great beautiful pixel art with an anime style cut scenes and animation.
   Game play is very fluid and crisp but also very punishing on higher levels (this is a plus for me, might not be for some).
   Great replay ability.
   4 different unique classes, that offer a very distinctive way of playing.
   Price! For 15bucks you get the whole game and 2 character classes, you get to to every content (besides DLCs) and then decide if you want to buy the other 2 classes, but if them don't appeal at all to you, you bought a 40$ worth game, just for 15bucks.
   
   Weak Points:
   Grind! I love grind but I feel that the majority of people doesn't enjoy this and often complains about it...there is no way around it, this is a very grindy game! If you want to beat all missions in their highest levels, you will need to do at least a decent amount of grind in order to have the gear for it.
   Very uninteresting story (subjective ofc), at least for me, its pretty basic, unless they will invest on it later on.
   Singleplayer/multiplayer balance...the game does very little scaling between solo and groups, which in some fights later can be very punishing for people playing solo.
   
   Very polished and enjoyable game that if the developers keep updating it, they seem to intend to and there is already a DLC coming in a few days, I can see my self playing for thousands of hours.… Expand

Lo unico malo es que si no compras la versión física, (yo si lo hice) te viene con menos personajes, lo cual podés elegir a la hora de la compra.
   Los gráficos se ven muy muy bien, las animaciones también, la música es regularmente buena, nada de obras maestras pero son muy agradables.… Expand

The typical game that isn't for everybody, its grindy, its repetitive and its very hard and punishing! BUT if you enjoy this type of game and are basically part of this niche group of players, this is a game for you and its an excellent game at that!
   
   I always enjoyed looters, looter shooters like Destiny or Borderlands, Isometric dungeon Crawlers like Diablo or even strategic ones with turn based mechanics. The only action platformer looter that I played before this Dragon Marked for Death was Castlevania: Harmony of Despair and I liked it, but it was blown way by it.
   But this one, oh boy it really clicks with me, specially while playing it a full party!
   Usually by the very endgame most looters become a mindless grind, because you often totally overpower your enemies, in this one, you have to be on your toes because the bosses can totally wreck you if you are careless, no matter how good your gear is and that twist totally hooked me!
   
   Great game with great aesthetics and 4 totally diverse playable classes, that as I mentioned, if you like loot combined with a gameplay like Gunvolt, you will devour this game, you can take my word for it!
   Clocking 85hours so far according to my Switch and bought it mid February!… Expand

   Exclusive to my favorite and platform of choice: Nintendo Switch.
   Inti Created on the wheel!
   Beautiful pixel art and great atmospheric music.
   Class based system with loot BUT with a very tough skill based action platformer playstyle!
   Tons of replayabilty!
   
   I wanted so bad to give it a 10, but in good conscious I can't simply because the story is very "just there", there is really not much to it, typical cursed and outcast heroes saving the world that has no love for them anime type of thing! Because otherwise, this game totally rocks!
   
   Digital release on January 31st, Physical release yesterday and first big content update releasing tomorrow! If they keep content flow going, they are showing AAA developers how its done.
   
   Good Job Inti Creates!… Expand

If you like platformers, grind, good gameplay, then you will like this game. However, there are a number of disadvantages: 1) at the beginning ( without experience and pumping ) gameplay seems very slow. 2) Grind. 3) Weak background. 4) Price. 2 parts it's 30$ + DLC 10$ = 40$, and this is 2/3 of AAA project. Anyway, I am happy with the purchase, thanks to the developers.
   
   P.S. Sry for my English.… Expand

The real game starts to crumble, I'm going to say all the flaws that I found.
   First of all, why do enemies just touch you and you receive damage? Aren't we living in 2020 where enemies does a move and hurts the player? Isn't that okay? About touching you, there are attacks that are almost unavoidable and can also 1hit-KO your character, yes I know that there are items to avoid this, but you don't have access to those items at the moment where enemies are likely to kill you just by passing next to you, the unfairness amount of damage from an enemy that is not even a boss is absurd, they didn't know how to balance the damage in solo mode, so playing solo is a torture and I can't even imagine having friends to play with after receiving one hit of death.
   The map is a mess, you could be lost in seconds because there's no way to know from where you came or where you need to explore, there's nothing that tells you what to do, where to go and in some of the biggest maps of the game there's not even a warp or anything that helps the player to know if hr/she is doing things correctly.
   Then the rewards, I can't believe that people is saying that the rewards are good, no, they are absolutely trash, there's no a good reward and the tradeable items in the black market asks the player for better levels and the quality of the item is not even great. I had played games likes this one before and this is the first time that I didn't enjoyed the game at all, it was a torture after going to the upper levels, the spike of the difficulty was absurd, the levels are quite repetite and boring, the music doesn't deliver justice to this and finally, I don't understand how they f***** so much with the balance of the game, is literally impossible to enjoy it solo without getting frustrated so many times because common enemies destroys you before facing the boss, and sometimes, you did all the hard work and just losing against the boss broken damage and unfair speed or movement (the bandit one is just stupid with those bombs and gigantic attacks, super unfair and not fun at all… Expand
