Day of the Shell is a very streamlined tactic game. An interesting proposition and what is there is good, but unfortunately it only feels like a solid base for a game. It needs more mechanics, more enemy variety, more biomes, it needs more of everything to make it really worthwhile. As it stands it's anecdotal even discounted. NOT a bad game, but not really a game in fact, just a draft of something more.

Excellent new take on tactical turn based roguelike. The whole idea is you get 1 action per turn, you'd think this would make the game easy or simple but in reality it makes you run through so many variables before finalizing your turn. The only con at the moment is a lack of content. The core gameplay loop can be mastered pretty quickly so the lack of run variety becomes apparent 20-30 hours in. A DLC or big content patch could add a much longer replayability lifecycle.

Game is as if it was a tech demo for a combat system that was incomplete. Really needs one or two more mechanics to truly shine. In its current state it is fun, however.

I had a lot of fun in this game. Thanks to the one click - one turn rule it flows really well during combat. Feels a bit like an action game sometimes without being one. Adding the three new weapons helped the repetitivness factor significantly by actually having different gameplay. The original three are quite similar to each other. I do hope they add more things to use crystals for, as they are useless to me after I bought everything. Maybe a way to just burn crystals for power or healing. Putting it at some lower tier in the shop could also help slow down the player's progress towards the point of having everything. I got the game on sale, so overall I'm quite happy with my purchase.

Pre update review: Its tough to say if I do or don't recommend this game. its style is fun and cute, the game play is slightly repetitive but good fun for the most part. Even if you don't think the game is your style I'd say its at least worth trying 2-3 runs before you set your opinion in stone. Post Update review: Before the latest update this game was fun but pretty easy and lacked enemy and build variety. The latest update has added a nice amount of new variety in perks, enemies, and weapons but its still a tough game to recommend to people. The new elite enemies in Stage 1 are fine and actually fun to fight, however the elites in Stage 2 are kinda just annoying when you have to deal with them and other enemies (normal or other elites) at the same time. The melee yeti guys are enemies you have to work around normally and make sure you don't take unnecessary damage by forgetting about them when targeting other enemies. They have a decent HP of 30 which is relatively easy to deal with if you get your build in order before stage 2 but their elite versions however are just outright obnoxious to deal with in my opinion. The elite version has double HP (60), what feels like double movement (distance they can travel), and damage which makes them a pure annoyance if they corner you when other enemies are nearby. The other elites in Stage 2 are fine but can also be annoying if they gang up on you. They are not hard to kill or deal with if you kill them first over normal enemies but again, they are very annoying in groups. I can not say much about the Stage 3 enemies as I haven't gotten to it yet after the new update, maybe I'll update my review after if I feel like it. Now the weapons. I like the rifle and the dagger and they can be VERY strong if you get a good build but they can have moments where they really ♥♥♥♥ you over. The dagger really relies on keeping injured enemies alive which, as anyone could probably guess, isn't very practical when enemies can easily team up on you but I guess they just didn't want to make the first boss weapon too strong so its understandable. Now I really like the rifle for its high damage capabilities and its very clear point of creation is to make wait cards more useful but the downside of having to wait 1 turn before you can attack can make the shield statues a huge pain in the ass to deal with because enemies can get shields back basically indefinitely if you don't deal with the statue first. That's basically all my complaints as all the other changes and balancing was very nice and a great change of pace for the game. I still stand by my take that if you think you'll like it, just buy it and try 2-3 runs before you decide what you think. Also side note/question for if the devs see this: was The Huntresses design based and/or inspired by Shelly from Brawl Stars?
