Nuclear Throne is Vlambeers latest action roguelike-like about mutants fighting their way through a post-apocalyptic world. The radioactive waste in the world allows mutants to get ahead by mutating new limbs on the fly, the abundant availability of powerful weaponry make the quest to become ruler of the mutants.
- Repeatability; In this game you move up through the levels, however, when you die, you're forced to restart from level 1! And after you get past stage 3 going back and restarting can get really frustrating, luckily the game is randomly generating for the enemies, allowing each level to be just as difficult--AND as fun--as before, just with all the 'spookies' scattered around in different spots. 9/10
- Cost; The game costs 13.99 on Steam, can be played for hours on end and the cost is really nothing compared to the amount of enjoyment you'll get. The game gets an update every Friday, so you've always got a new addition to your game. 4/5
- Predictability; As I previously mentioned the game is randomly generating, this means that the game will randomly pick and distribute enemy characters around randomly generated maps, loot and prizes are also distributed. The game is intensely sporadic and chaotic, with little to no sense to it. 5/5
- Entertainment; The entertainment levels for this game are INSANE! As long as you're patient enough to be able to cope with the death of your character every once in a while, you'll find this game extraordinarily amusing! 8/10
- Difficulty; The game is tough, I won't lie. With enemies hidden in the walls, around corners, and you being forced to restart from the beginning after every death, this game can be frustrating, yet the new abilities you receive after every completed level can always help to shake things up. 7/10
- Author Review; The game is a crazy top-down shooter (my favorite kind), and is absolutely hilarious. I've said enough. 8/10
