Texte original · AnglaisHave a Nice Death is a 2D action roguelike where you play as an overworked Death, whose employees have run rampant, completely throwing off the balance of souls - and his vacation plans.

Pourquoi cette note ?
Les combos et les retours de mouvements sont des points forts, mais les builds sont définis tôt, les ressources de récupération sont rares et les explications des informations sont insuffisantes pour limiter l'expérience à long terme.

Synthèse des discussions
Texte original · AnglaisA 2D side-scrolling action roguelite from Magic Design Studios in which you play an overworked Death, CEO of Death Inc., fighting rogue employees across office-themed departments with scythes, spells and curses.
Texte original · AnglaisHave a Nice Death is well liked but not a genre-topper: Steam sits at Very Positive (about 86% of roughly 10.8k reviews), Metacritic critics at 81 (26 reviews, Generally Favorable) and Metacritic users at a lukewarm 7.3 from only 117 ratings. Nearly everyone praises the hand-drawn art, music, dark office humour and snappy combat. The recurring complaints are brutal boss and mob damage, scarce healing, slow and stingy unlock drops, and level and enemy repetition. It spent a year in Early Access (from March 2022), hit 1.0 on PC and Switch on 22 March 2023 with the Inevitable Time Department, and reached PlayStation and Xbox in December 2023. Critics tend to compare it to Dead Cells (and Hades/Hollow Knight) and call it a strong but derivative entry; Steam's recent reviews are still 81% positive, so it retains a steady but small audience (about 91 concurrent players in the snapshot).
Ce que les joueurs apprécient
- Texte original · AnglaisHand-drawn, muted gothic-corporate art direction with distinct, animated character designs, often compared to Hollow Knight
- Texte original · AnglaisFast, precise, responsive movement and combat; some players say it plays well even with mouse and keyboard
- Texte original · AnglaisDark-comedy office-culture setting with witty bosses and NPCs who trash-talk you based on how you played
- Texte original · AnglaisSoundtrack that mixes elevator-music and corporate-chill hub tracks with upbeat boss themes
- Texte original · AnglaisLarge build variety: 70+ weapons and spells, cloaks (cooldown-based), and risk/reward curses that act as run-long power-ups
- Texte original · AnglaisBoss fights that reward pattern recognition and feel satisfying to beat
- Texte original · AnglaisFast retry loop and a sense of real skill growth: players report first-difficulty runs becoming easy after practice
Ce que les joueurs critiquent
- Texte original · AnglaisHealing is scarce, and the grey-zone (recoverable damage) health system confuses players and is called unintuitive; one Metacritic user said they could rarely find healing items
- Texte original · AnglaisBosses and even regular mobs deal huge damage, creating frustrating difficulty spikes
- Texte original · AnglaisBoss fights are visually cluttered: effects cover the player character, so some deaths feel cheap and artificial
- Texte original · AnglaisLevels and enemies repeat: maps are rearrangements of the same rooms and the enemy roster is small, so runs feel samey over time
- Texte original · AnglaisCombat depth is called shallow by some, mostly mashing attack with few real combos, and many in-run upgrades feel low-impact
- Texte original · AnglaisWeapon, spell and food unlocks drop rarely, so players never see most of the content; progression feels restrictive (IGN made a similar point about progression)
- Texte original · AnglaisReported bugs: crashes/freezes, input delay and achievement-tracking issues raised on Steam forums (minor relative to other complaints in top reviews)
- Texte original · AnglaisSystems are explained poorly; reviewers say the UX is confusing and they never understood what half the things do
- Texte original · AnglaisValue is debated: top critical reviews say it may not justify $25 at full price and suggest waiting for a sale
Caractéristiques distinctives
- Texte original · AnglaisPremise that satirises work culture and burnout: Death as an overworked CEO dealing with rogue employees in corporate departments
- Texte original · AnglaisHollow Knight-style movement and art in a roguelite, often described as Dead Cells with more Hollow Knight-like controls
- Texte original · AnglaisCurse system of risk/reward, run-long power-ups sitting alongside scythes, spells and cooldown cloaks
- Texte original · AnglaisBosses that comment on your damage taken, kills and gear, making fights feel personal and funny
- Texte original · AnglaisFloor structure based on office departments, with a story that concludes in the 1.0 Inevitable Time Department
Points qui divisent
- Texte original · AnglaisDifficulty: some call it punishing in a satisfying way and got much better, others call bosses unbalanced and artificially hard
- Texte original · AnglaisCombat depth: praised as fluid with plentiful builds by some, and as basic button-mashing by others
- Texte original · AnglaisWhether it is a true roguelike or roguelite is debated on the Steam forums, and some players find the graphic violence jarring; one Steam thread on it got 49 comments
- Texte original · AnglaisPolygon objected to presenting the cruel protagonist sympathetically, while other critics loved the humour and setting
Répétition et contraintes
- Texte original · AnglaisDozens of failed runs before reaching the first ending; one 36-hour reviewer stopped caring about continuing the grind
- Texte original · AnglaisFeeling of little progress because most unlocks rarely show up, so you always feel like you just started
- Texte original · AnglaisSame maps and platforming sections start feeling samey; the map is simple enough that you always know where to go
- Texte original · AnglaisRepeating the first-floor boss fight and the rest of the boss gauntlet; some players say the game is the same down to the end
- Texte original · AnglaisHealing scarcity turning long runs into attrition between bosses
Améliorations espérées
- Texte original · AnglaisExplain the systems (curses, grey health, cloaks, unlock paths) better instead of leaving players to work them out
- Texte original · AnglaisImprove enemy, room and level variety so floors stop feeling like reshuffled walls
- Texte original · AnglaisMake healing and permanent unlocks more accessible and raise drop rates for weapons and food so more of the content gets seen
- Texte original · AnglaisRebalance difficulty so normal rooms and bosses are closer in challenge, with better scaling across the easy and normal modes
- Texte original · AnglaisReduce boss visual clutter so the player model stays readable
- Texte original · AnglaisDeeper combat with more weapon interactions and combos; fix crashes and input delay
Texte original · AnglaisEarly Access began March 2022 (Steam store lists March 8, 2022); 1.0 launched 22 March 2023 on PC and Switch with the Inevitable Time Department (new boss, mini-boss, enemies and a story conclusion). PlayStation and Xbox versions followed 5 December 2023. Wikipedia credits Gearbox Publishing as publisher while Steam currently lists Arc Games, so the publisher changed or the sources lag. Steam is Windows-only, with no Mac or Linux build. Price $24.99. Critics were warm at launch (Metascore 81, no negative reviews, 81% positive / 19% mixed), while Metacritic users are more mixed. Current Steam sentiment is stable at Very Positive. No OpenCritic score could be retrieved: web search was out of budget and the OpenCritic page I tried was the wrong game.

Texte original · AnglaisTier list Part 1 (2023)
Texte original · AnglaisHave A Nice Death is a flashy, cute action roguelite with spells and abilities, which he has followed since Early Access. He loves its look, animation and moment-to-moment feel, and respects the developers for continuing to update it. His main complaint is that runs get repetitive, because you lock onto one or two good spells and stick with them. He places it in low A tier.
Ce que le créateur apprécie
- Texte original · AnglaisArt, animation and characters look amazing and are cute and fun
- Texte original · AnglaisFast, flashy gameplay with a lot of control over the character
- Texte original · AnglaisMany different spells and abilities that make you feel cool
- Texte original · AnglaisFirst playthroughs feel amazing
- Texte original · AnglaisDevelopers keep updating the game and clearly care about keeping it alive
Problèmes relevés par le créateur
- Texte original · AnglaisGets repetitive once you find one or two good spells and stick to them all run
- Texte original · AnglaisBuilds are not very diverse within a run; you upgrade the same abilities rather than finding unique combos
- Texte original · AnglaisRuns can get pretty long, which makes the repetition wear on him
- Texte original · AnglaisAfter many runs and seeing all the spells, the novelty fades
Observations sur la conception
- Texte original · AnglaisVisual presentation and animation quality carry the experience and sell it on first impression
- Texte original · AnglaisAbility variety exists between runs but not within a run, so a run feels locked in early
