ICEY for Pc

I really liked this game, having finished it not more than 5 minutes ago. It has a lot of fun moments, and secrets galore, both big and small and that simply contain currency. I have a few nitpicks, mostly with the controls. It’s port, so it’s never going to be perfect but I would still like a better dash button, I found myself trying to parry with it constantly but finding myself attacking or facing the wrong digestion. A floating left stick would be great as well. One last thing, I won’t spoil it but there’s a trophy called a modern day Pandora’s box which is a secret and the reward for achieving it is a little lax. I would have loved a reward like an all around boost to damage or something more solid that what we get. Or potentially a counter wherein we kill a certain number of enemies and get an instant kill on the rest or something. Anyway, it is a fun little bit of game and I really like the interactivity with the devs as you play.

EDIT: I really really enjoyed it, but there are a couple things that unfortunately made me take off a star. The main thing is that the game is actually really small. I thought I had been still at the beginning but it turns out I beat it all in just a few hours, whereas Grimvalor, for example, kept me going for a much longer time. If this game had been longer, it would’ve been among my favorites ever. The only other small thing is that the move list could’ve been a tad better; several of the ones at the bottom didn’t show a control but instead of nothing, it showed the control of the move before it, which was confusing. The shadow cut in particular could have been much better explained in terms of how it is activated. Anyway, it’s still a really enjoyable game, and I’d still recommend it to anyone. :) ———— Original review: For the longest time, I’ve searched for a new game to play similar to Grimvalor, that meshed the hack & slash genre with the platformer that included hidden areas and secrets to find! I’ve only just started and although it’s past midnight, this is now the first time I’ve managed to put it down after hours of non-stop playing. I can’t really say this game is absolutely a 5* one since I’m still in the beginning, but so far, I really love it.

Well my review was not even submitted probably because of my next sentence. I mentioned that ios 11 basically got rid of great 32 bit games like arcane soul and metal slug( 1-3), MVC2. I am happy that a game like this app is able to keep the action rpg genre alive with its smooth controls and fun combos. I wish the dev didn’t have to cut a lot of the amazing game features he himself shows as an Easter egg ,but it’s understandable his budget wasn’t high(by supporting the dev I hope he can create more games with those missing combat features like the long range weapon and such.) If you want a break from the common idle/clicker game and want to support variety in game genres that actually care for gameplay, I highly recommend this game.

The game's main plot acts as a satire on modern hack and slash games and pulp science fiction, but the meta game really starts when you trophy hunt. What a phenomenal game. The voiceover quality was a bit lacking at times, but overall the game provides you with incredibly entertaining hack and slash mechanics on top of some really interesting, philosophically tied plot points that deal with the concept of choice in video games in a way that reminded me of Bioshock. Truly great iOS game, definitely in my top 5.
