A few tiles to push, sharply dressed demon girls, and it's over in an hour.

When the community picks on instinct, Helltaker stays low, ahead of barely a third of games, but it's on a single vote, so nothing sharp. The criterion detail draws a mixed game. Connection surprises on the high side, ahead of nearly three quarters of titles, a sign this little thing marks those who cross its path. Rediscovery holds the average. But desert island drops low, and above all sound environment falls to the very bottom, on few votes here too. It's almost a shame, because the final track became a cult favorite, but the early votes don't back that up.

Compared to small free games that mark their moment, Helltaker plays the same court: short, stylish, memorable for its tone more than its length. Its high connection says it well, you bond fast, you leave fast.

So, for who? For you if you love a quick bite, funny, with style to spare. Much less if you want depth, length, or a game that whisks you off to a desert island.
