8/10 – A sharp, satisfying short romp Netherworld Covenant surprised me. Despite some of the negative reviews floating around, the moment to moment gameplay is genuinely solid. Combat feels tight, responsive, and rewarding. Parrying and dodging land just right, and it has that “one more run” pull without ever feeling exhausting. Hot take, but I honestly enjoyed jumping into this more than Hades in short bursts. If I’ve got 20 minutes between work and dinner and just want to unwind, this hits the same sweet spot. It respects your time, and that goes a long way. The game runs about 15 hours, which I actually appreciated. Not everything needs to be a massive time sink. That said, it does feel like it could have used a bit more meat on the bones. More bosses and a deeper skill tree would have taken it from good to great. Build variety is interesting, with a solid mix of classes, ghost skills, weapons, relics, and auras to experiment with. I liked making choices going into runs, though I wish fewer upgrades felt disconnected from your actual build. Visually and structurally, it can feel a bit samey. Enemy variety is decent but not standout, and the biomes don’t always differentiate themselves enough. There is some copy paste in map design, which adds to that slightly bland feel. Overall, a really enjoyable indie that knows what it is. Just be ready for a shorter ride.

It's a decent game. Very short atm and not particularly hard if you're accustomed to games like Hades. The primary difficulty is mainly fighting the controls when they don't want to respond immediately. In the 2 hours that I played, I beat what the game currently has, twice. My primary issue is the scale of the game atm, which is waaaaaaaaaay too small. The combat areas need to be way bigger. Right now it's just, run 4 feet, fight 4 dudes, run another 4 feet, fight 4 more dudes, level complete. Other issues is the weird delay on dodging and your primary interrupt ability not auto targeting the enemies doing something that is interruptable. Dodging in games like this needs to be crisp and immediate, anything else just feels like dogsh*t. Got an a way to interrupt? Cool, don't make it a giant pain in the ass to use, as just like dodging, it needs to be crisp and immediate. What usually happens is that those 4 enemies end up on top of each other and interrupting them outside of hitting all 4 of them with a big attack becomes nearly impossible. This game does commit the cardinal sin though. You get staggered and stunlocked by literally anything and you're kinda just a punching bag till it stops. Enemies are not staggerable outside of resource spending attacks, interrupts (which we talked about), and breaking their posture. Which honestly just leads to a lot of cheap hits that chip away at your health over the course of a run. Lots of things trying to turbo you offscreen as well (they need some kind of offscreen incoming attack indicator or something) Boss fights are a lot of fun tho.

Finished the 1st of three difficulty settings in under 10 hours. Was fun but I dont really feel the need to keep playing as higher difficulty only unlocks more power-ups not more content. Cheers.

Why play Netherworlds Covenants? • It’s a fast-paced, gameplay-oriented roguelike set in a dark fantasy setting. • It has an awesome parry mechanic that can completely stop enemy attacks. At times it even reminded me of the Sekiro experience. What is good? • Different weapons make you play in completely different ways. • There are many enemy types, each requiring a totally different approach. You must remember their abilities to win. • You can avoid damage in many ways: perfect dodge, perfect block, parry yellow, parry red, invincibility frames from skills, teleportation, or just running away. The options are immense. • Difficulty changes give new moves to all enemies. Awesome. What is bad? • Meta-progression is a disgusting way to prevent you from beating the game on the first try. • Build creation during the run does NOT change how you play. It only speeds up killing enemies. The main choices happen in the hub. • Many enemies can hit you from off-screen. You simply can’t react to that. Disgusting. • The last two bosses are weak. Tanky, but NOT dangerous. • Some minibosses can be beaten only ONCE. What a waste. It’s a GOOD game, but the lack of variety makes it a weak roguelike. I recommend trying it on sale.

The gameplay mechanics are on point. Combat feels responsive. The variety in skills is good. The legacy/meta progression could be better explained to the player though. My biggest gripe is there doesn't seem to be a story hook. I don't feel compelled to progress, other than the combat is fun.
