Day 23: An Interesting Videogame I've Played Recently

I'm cheating because I've owned this one for a while, but that's not gonna stop me from plugging the game.

Crypt Of The Necrodancer is a procedurally generated dungeon crawler married to a rhythm game and the end result is a lot more coherent than you think.

The real kicker is that it works off the bat with my Dance Dance Revolution dance mat for PS3 so the name of the game is finding a control scheme that works for you and having a dance party, while also engaging with some hectic mechanics.

You can only move on the beat and your combo climbs as you tango through procedurally generated rooms as you murder and loot your way to colourful and creative bosses.

The only caveats it has is that periodically your game is interrupted by these FMV lore expositions which might harm more than help, and the difficulty curve spikes sharply at the end. But four dungeons to crawl through with your progressed saved as you beat the dungeon and the ability to choose what items spawn mean you're never left with your pants down and that mechanical mastery is how you win.

I give it a hard recommendation, go play it, it's cool, it's fun, it's interesting.

Either way, that's me, peace out, Matt-Dave signing off.
