About this game

Death is not the end.
Play as a failed alchemic experiment and explore the sprawling, ever-changing castle to find out what happened on this gloomy island…!
That is, assuming you’re able to fight your way past its keepers.

Dead Cells is a roguevania action platformer that will require you to master frantic 2D combat with a wide variety of weapons and skills against merciless minions and boss.

Kill. Die. Learn. Repeat.

First available on PC and consoles, the indie hit Dead Cells is now slaying foes on mobile!

Main Features
• Roguevania: The progressive exploration of an interconnected world, with the replayability of a rogue-lite and the adrenaline pumping threat of permadeath

• Frantic and Dynamic 2D Action: Learn your enemies’ patterns to stay alive, or prepare to be sent back to your cell before you can say “baguette”

• Nonlinear Progression: Unlock new levels with every death, opt for the path that suits your current build, your playstyle or just your mood.
Surely, the ramparts can’t be as bad the sewers, right?

• Play at your own pace: Will you explore every nook and cranny of the castle, or rush to the end?

*Latest updates are available: Clean Cut & The End is Near*

one of the greatest games ever. controls are easy to use, dozens of weapons to choose from, each biome is unique looking with different enough enemies. The beginning is frustrating as you'll die dozens of times before you get the gist of it. As you play more you'll eventually become skilled enough to advance in the game. the humor in this is also underrated.

Great game, one of the best of this kind (at least for mobile). The immense variety in weapons/shields/support make it so there's an incredible amount of different ways to fight your way through the levels. I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 because the dimension of the moving pad isn't customizable, so the character often slams the ground when I don't want to because the pad is so small. All in all I recommend giving it a try.

Oh my, this game is A-MAY-ZING! For real, one of the few games which are an Android port from the PC which is also very well done AND an amazing game in itself. The OST is fitting and far from boring, the look is amazing and not that much of a downgrade from the original PC version and the controller support is very well done. The gameplay is intuitive and simple, yet challenging and exciting each run! Made me buy the DLC (an actual expansion!) and I think that's saying a lot for a mobile game
