by Jim Smale · October 27, 2022

For our Doomed To Hell Review, we play a roguelike-like top-down shooter where you play as Rose, a human in hell who will need to fight all of its monsters in waves of enemies, defeat bosses, and get new weapons to earn back his life on earth.

Doomed To Hell Review Cons:

Really small text.
Minimal settings.
Just keeps going, if you die, it just starts at wave one again.
The text is so small you have no idea what’s going on story-wise.
Same temporary buffs as it is a small pool.
The level location is small and then they add in many unbreakable obstacles.
Very repetitive.
The hook to keep you coming back is just not there.

Summary

Doomed to Hell is right on the money except hell is the constant game loop that hardly ever changes. The game is a twin-stick shooter but the areas are small and the enemies are huge and it all makes for a tedious, not fun experience. I just don’t get why you put a lot of time into the game because it is just the same thing over and over and boredom sunk in way before any other emotion could be emitted. I just wouldn’t bother if I was you.
