Dead Cells is a roguelike metroidvania action-platformer developed by Motion Twin. Players control a mass of cells inhabiting a corpse in a constantly changing castle, fighting through procedurally generated levels with tight 2D combat. The game combines permadeath roguelike elements with persistent metroidvania-style unlocks that open new paths and areas. Dozens of weapons and abilities offer diverse build options each run, from broadswords to freeze blasts. Boss encounters are challenging and memorable. Between runs, players spend cells to permanently unlock new weapons, mutations, and traversal abilities. Dead Cells received critical acclaim for its responsive combat, art direction, and addictive gameplay loop. Multiple free and paid DLC expansions have added substantial content since launch.
