Review: ‘EVERSLAUGHT’ in a dungeon crawler style game in which you will be exploring randomly generated levels and battling a handful of enemies with the hope of getting more gold to upgrade yourself and your weasons. The good news is there are times when the game looks good, especially the hand gauntlets and swords. But when it comes to gameplay it all falls apart. The combat is lame and unresponsive, you can simply waggle the sword in front of you and win, plus the sounds effects that go with this action are not great, nor is the ambient sounds meaning you can often be attacked from behind and never know about it until it starts happening.

There is no way on earth this game is worth £15.49 at the moment, it doesn’t have anywhere near the level of content nor polish I would expect in that price range. But it is only Early access so things could easily change. But for now, I suggest you hold off on this one and let it grow a little before giving it a go. I Will update this review once a few updates have passed.
