    How to mesh genres with perfection 0

    Dead Cells is the perfect combination of genres, it makes you experience the thrill of discovery of games like Super Metroid and also the learning process of a roguelike, making you go through levels, learn the mechanics, probably die on the first couple of tries and comeback each time more prepared.The game has just the right amount of enemie variety, not giving you hundreds of different pattern to learn but also not being that repetitive from level to level.
