It's free, and you can use it in remote-play for "local coop" online. But it's not great. Barely passes the thumbs up test.
As a top-down twin-stick shooter with rougelike elements, this game just doesn't feel fun. It's free however, so maybe it could be with friends.
A fun fast-paced game that really is a lot better with some friends on couch co-op, as it tends to get a little repetitive over the various stages. Level design is fun, controls are great, music definitely sounds good too.
As for opportunities to be evil: Few. But friendly fire can be a thing, so there's always betraying your friends!

I've had this game for years and I will say, it is a fantastic party game. It moves quickly, the controls are solid, and visuals are a blast. Any issues are also quickly resolved and the dev has been pretty great about responding.
If you have some friends, pick it up. It's free, it's great. What the hell are you waiting for?
The developer seems nice but I found the game to be very repetitive and grindy. The core mechanics are not engaging and it isn't exactly fun to play after the first few levels.

TLDR: Swarmed by ranged enemies that shoot out of screen. Constant enemy respawn. No XP for the grind. Mazes, keyhunt and door finding as main goals.
As a free game that features local co-op this is alright. But I do not know that I would want to drag someone I know in to play this with me. It is a tad too simplistic and frustrating of an experience and gets old fairly quickly.
Normally I would not go out of my way to review a free to play product negatively but since I have this product locked in my library through bundle purchases I find myself having to.
The pixelart was kinda cute-ish but there is not a ton of variety in the assets so it gets samey quickly.
I would prefer to play Binding of Isaac or Enter the Gungeon rather tha play this. Removing local content permanently and hiding from library for declutter so better games can have better visibility in my collection.
Times like this I wish there was a "neutral" option other than yes/no.
As a fan of twin stick shooters, and old-school arcade games, this was right up my alley. After spending far too much time trying to reach the ending, the time has come to give up and write my 2 cents:
Like Gauntlet? This is similar in some ways, though it does make for a better single-player experience. You start out weak, and there are 2 levels of power up to help you along, along with scrolls that offer 1-use boost (destroy everything on-screen, make you invincible for a short period, etc). Things start out promising for the first few levels, but around level 6 or so it becomes quite unbalanced and very grindy. By the end, although I wanted to finish it, I had to eventually give up having reached the end-boss once only. Maybe I'm playing it wrong.
The good:
- nice graphics
- good controls
- fun to figure out the map and hunt for your upgrades to help you along
- Not very long (at least to get to the late levels), so well suited to short game-play sessions
- Having end bosses is nice and adds to the sense of progression
- There are secrets to discover
The not-so-good:
- feels like your weapon could use a couple more levels of power up. Enemies become overwhelming in both speed and numbers in later levels, to the point where you basically have to keep restarting if you don't luck out and get a couple power-ups early.
- The randomly placed scrolls need to be "discovered" before they start to appear. Took me awhile to figure out "discover" means actually used. So if you are hanging onto a scroll (you can only carry one), and discover a new one but don't want to waste what you have, it basically is considered "not discovered". To compound this, it can be sometimes hard to tell the colours apart so you end up wasting one only to discover your new scroll is something you've seen before.
- Hard to be certain, but it seems like the enemies become more difficult and faster as you acquire power ups like increased shot speed. Basically you can never really even the odds.
- Some of the bosses are pretty cheap.
- Objects are random, and some things you destroy actually spawn enemies. Since you lose your powerups when you die, it makes restarting a bit of a crap-shoot.
A key thing in Gauntlet was the generators. If you could destroy one, you basically stopped enemies from spawning. There is no such machanic here, so basically there is nothing you can do to stop things from getting hard...nothing to really even the odds at all. Things just keep coming and coming until you are over-run.
In short, it is fun while it lasts, but unless your OCD kicks in like mine did it really runs its course pretty quickly. The game is free now, so one can't complain too much but there are definitely more balanced games out there to spend your time on. In the end, not a terrible game but one that I wanted to like more than I actually did.
The dev himself is not of fan of his own game lol.. not sure why, as it's great! Really fun game with a genre somewhere between Gauntlet and Binding of Isaac. Don't let the co-op option put you off - it's good fun in single player as well. I think the addition of right-stick fire control in the '+' version is an important one, as I would not like to play without it. Perhaps there could be more content in general to further extend replayability.. but it is well worth checking out.
Attack of the Labyrinth
My Thoughts: Attack of the Labyrinth is not a bad game but it is also not a perfect game. There are many flaws that even the maker has ammited to and says it would take an entire rewrite of the game to create the game he imagined. That said this game is fun. With a multi player and many classes it can bring hours of entertainment either alone or with friends. I tried out all of the classes, with the melee class being nearly impossible to play, and they are all uniquely fun.
Pantsu's Rating (out of 5)
Graphics: 3 The NES style graphics leave much to the imagination, and with lighting effects somtimes you can't tell what color some of the monsters are. (White bat looks red next to torches)
Playability: 3 The controls are pretty simple, either mouse and keyboard or handheld controler, but it lacks a few options I would like to see such as the ability to put down a scroll instead of using it.
Fun: 3.5 Random generation is always great but some classes have hard times with corners or ranged enemies.
Sound: 3 The music isn't horrifing, and neither the sound affects but I wouldn't seek out a soundtrack.
Replay: 4 Random generation, multiple classes, and progressive achivements will keep you coming back for more abuse.
Final Score: 3.5
Final Thought: This game is worth getting, and at $1.99 you wouldn't break the bank if you didn't want to wait for a sale.
Hey I figured out how to record my gameplay. Voice and my webcam is next, baby steps. I'm going to try to upload here but I think I might need a Youtube account and then link my upload from there.
A fun little fantasy twin-stick shooter. So far as I can tell, the classes aren't well balanced - range doesn't seem to be a major factor in the balance of attacks. As such, it's hard to beat the (free) unlimited range of the mage. You can kill things you can't even see, and with a high rate of fire, that really helps keep the screen clear in the direction you are moving.
The other classes seem to pale in comparison, but it is still a fun time.
The upgrades feel like a proper shmup, they are significant, but you lose them when you die. But the permanent upgrades give the game a slight RPG feel that is cool.
The game could use a couple of things that I think would have made it more fun:
1. A more gradual ramp-up of enemy difficulty and frequency. Basically you are getting random encounters with tons of monsters right out of the gate, and there doesn't seem to be anything stopping you from bumping into rather "nasty" monsters in the very first parts of the very first level.
This isn't a flaw, by itself, but it seems like a missed opportunity to feel like you are gradually ramping up, which is common in shmups.
2. The game could use some "sanctuaries". The shops seems like the obvious choice, but it would be nice to have somewhere to go to think, count, and just look at your map for a few seconds.
These flaws are all minor, though, and the game achieves its goal very well, overall, I think.
Game is fun if you have friends to play it with. It's a bit short if you rush through it, but I've always enjoyed my time in it when playing with peers. Dev is humble and perhaps a bit hard on himself - but the important thing (to me) is that he holds up to what he says he'll do and genuinely seems to care.
It's an ok game with nice pixelated graphics. That is the biggest pro of the game.
I paid less than a dollar for it and had a good couple of hours. I could imagine it would be funnier playing with some friends.
Buy it if you like this style of graphics.
Overall, I've enjoyed this game. I don't exactly remember when/how I got it, but I wanted to play a dungeon crawler, popped this one in, and was surprised by it.
From what I've collected, this game seems to have had a rocky history/start, but I can't really find anything major to gripe about it. I'd imagine major issues have since been patched by the time I played this game.
Attack of the Labyrinth is pretty basic and it can be beaten in about 80 minutes if you're experienced with the genre, slightly longer if not. It's hard to get a game over in this game because if you're decent at it and like to explore you'll either find a ton of 1UP's or be able to buy lots of them from the store. There are two endings that I'm aware of and the requirements to get the "good" ending aren't that hard.
My only real gripe is that there's something weird going on with the achievements, namely that some people think one of them is outright broken, and that there are a couple whose unlock requirements are unclear. As I write this review there's no guide and no insight on the forum as to what's what. If you're looking for completion, I'd stay away from this one.
The game is a "solid 5" on a 1-10 scale, to me at least.
Ya know, for what it is.. it isn't bad as a generic dungeon crawl. It isn't amazing and no real replayability factor, but it was cheap, it handled local co-oip and you can beat it in a sitting.
A solic cheapie game. Short moderate fun experience.
The most accurate word to describe this game would be 'basic'. The visuals are basic, the mechanics are basic and the content is basic. It seems fun at first but by the end of the first couple of short levels you will have seen pretty much everything the game has to offer. It's really just a mindless grind through endlessly respawning enemies.
The are many dungeon crawlers on Steam and almost all of them are better than this one. My advice would be to buy Hammerwatch instead; it's a far superior game in every way.

Attack of the Labyrinth is fun little arcade game. Sadly, it doesn't offer much depth, but it isn't an expensive title. This is first impressions of the game.
A peaceful kingdom is treathen by dark presence. A labyrinth of pure evil, with an army unlike any seen before. So, now it's up to four Champions to save the kingdom. Simple story.
This is 2D game, so the lacking of video options is understandable. So is the rebindable keys to ceratin degree. It would be nice to change them. The graphics are retro pixel art with a lot of colours
There is four classes to choose from. Those are the Champions. I only play with the Wizard. With him the gameplay is a twin-stick shooter. You have only one attack – a projectile and that's it. Well, there is more, but not much. In the levels you can find or buy upgrades. They change your projectile and your appearance. The wizard can be upgraded two times, I don't know about the others. The only other thing that can help you are scrolls. They are one time use magic spell. Health, Mace, Summon, Shield and Radiant. The last is extremely powerful clearing spell. You can carry one at a time. There is nothing more to the gameplay.
With the gold you collect from dead enemies, chests and everything that explodes, you can buy from a shop inside the level lives (yes, there are lives here), scrolls, health and upgrades and nothing more.
Dungeons or labyrinths are pretty diverce as layout. I saw ice cave, mines with tracks, grass, dirt or gold and so on. All levels are randomly generated, which add to the replayability. When you enter a labyrinth you have to find a key, then the exit. Also there is place with a map, that shows where those things are and the shop. There is no mini map and sometimes it's a little bit confusing. Before every boss you have to make it through series of levels. The first is small, but they get progressively larger. The labyrinth with the boss encounter are pretty big and without a mini map it can take you a while to find the key and the exit.
Enemies are okay. Different types of spiders, ghosts, archers, knights and so on. When they surround they are dangerous. The game is pretty intense and I like that. The bosses are creative and fun to fight.
Effects resemble 8-bit games from the past and they are nice. Music is okay, but not very memorable. I can't think of a single track.
The games is okay. It's very colorful with responsive controls and it's fun for a while. There is local co-op, but didn't try it. Probably it will be more fun with a friend, but I think it's a mistake not to have online multiplayer. Sadly, my biggest disappointment is the lack of gameplay depth. One projectile and scrolls. I played almost two hours and i'm already getting bored. It's just functional, fun little game. But when you consider the prise, I think the game is alright. Get the game on sale and find a friend to play with you.
Very lovely and engaging but very easy to pick up and play game. You run around randomly generated levels to first find a key and then exit the current floor with it in another location. You get a few classes to play, I took the knight. COmbat was very simple, just hold the left mouse button to spam a wild swing. It all boils down to rush levels and crush everything to keep your health up with pickups. Get it for a low price if you enjoy a lighthearted and simple action game.
Game had so much potential with a nice game engine but it's not my kind of game.
Control is good, like Zelda with projectiles. Graphics and sound are decent, music is a little weak. I would rather have used twin-stick control.
I wish games had a little intro screen that explained a little, like during the attract mode of classic arcade games like PacMan, Galaxian..
Because I didn't realize what kind of game it was. The point of this game is not to continue getting more powerful and enjoying the rewards, but simply to complete the game.
The challenge keeps ramping up, but the rewards do not. There are 3 levels up upgrades you can find pretty quickly and then you just play the game like that. You can't save your progress and continue later....
There are 3 parts of the game, and once you finish a part, you permently unlock the next part, it seems. So you can start a new game and start at part 2.
But I found that if you want to try to get anywhere in the game, it will be significantly easier to play it from begining to end, starting at part 1.
But the first section is where you become powerful and build up like 10 lives. The second part is where you get bored. :p But theoretically, if you keep the momentum going, you have enough lives to bully your way through the game. If you try to pick up and play from part 2 or part 3 another time, you will be at a severe disadvantage starting those challenging areas without the 3 upgrades and lots of lives.
* 5-6 hours of gameplay
* Local Co-op
* Cool pixel graphics
* Tight controls
* So much money to collect
* Achievments
* Awesome dev
You should grab it now if you like this sort of game, or just wait for the price to drop in a couple of weeks.
It's just not that good...
Watch me lose faith in the game by the minute with my Build-a-Review
Pro:
_Looks good: The game looks simple, but vibrant. The character and attack animation all looks nice too. Wide variety of enemies sprites as well.
_Plays well: Controls exactly as you'd expect it. Feels precise.
_Co-op: The game has co-op, and co-op play should make almost any game better.
Cons:
_Bare-boned: This whole game feels like one level. The enemies, while varied in looks, mostly behave the same way. The levels are all the same too, with no set-pieces or events or anything interesting. The 4 chracters are basically only 2 characters: The melee type, and the ranged type. Chracters upgrade in a linear fashion twice, but there's no variety in term of how they're upgraded. There's no items that change the way you play. Shops only sell the same thing over and over. The list goes on.
_Short, really really short: I mean, it's really short. Might be a blessing, I suppose, if you're not having a good time. But it's hard to excuse a game that is THIS short, even on a $6 price tag.
_Co-op is only local: Minor point, really, but worth mentioning.
_WAY too easy, too.
Is it worth $6? I'm afraid not, and that's coming from the guy that gives every game the benefit of the doubt. It's simply too short, too shallow, too dumb, too easy, too simple. There's nothing here for you, the gamer. Game dev, if you're reading this, this is not a game, it's a level. It's a good start, but not enough is here.
