    I'll be grabbing some of these games because: 🕹 Vambrace: Cold Soul is a simpler version of Darkest Dungeon. 🕹 Gordian Quest is a simpler version of a D&D game. 🕹 Aggelos is like combining Monster Boy and Zelda II, but a much shorter version. 🕹 Book of Demons is like a simpler Diablo game.

    I am more hyped for this than I am for any upcoming AAA game. I freaking LOVE Aggelos and the announcement of a sequel - with Gargoyles Quest style mechanics! - caught me by complete surprise.

    It seems that only one person uploaded the soundtrack to the game, Aggelos, to YouTube and didn't realize that the developers added a new track specifically for the elemental temples when they released the game to all consoles. I'm about to change that today.

Today we're back into it and I'm looking forward to finishing up the water temple and seeing where we go from there. 9:30 PM Eastern.

    Aggelos is a very fun action RPG that is a love letter to the 8 bit days of some of the Wonder Boy games. I had heard it is difficult, but I didn't think it was that hard. The game is beautiful and also has great music. #JustBeatIt

    Aggelos isn't nearly as good as Dragon's Trap or Monster Boy imo, but for a game that I believe is mostly a solo effort it's pretty good! Worth a go if you like that classic Monster World style.

  • Alex Holland @alexlotl.bsky.socialBluesky · Mar 30, 2025

    It was a good renaissance - I did a full Monster World series playthrough. Monster Boy is such a triumph of a game, IMO, one of my favourites of the last decade. How does Aggelos compare to the likes of Monster Boy and Dragon’s Trap? That one passed me by.

    Aggelos is fun but difficult in the mid-late game to the extent I’m annoyed with it presently. Evoland is a fun RPG history review. Can be had with its sequel for very cheap. Silksong is brutally hard. Buy for PC only so you can employ mods. Rocket League’s fun, but YMMV, non-sports game fans.

Screw you if you missed something, I guess. ►The game wants to be a schmup sometimes with the projectile spam. ►Again, save points should be at the start of the dungeon.

    I started playing Aggelos today. Fairly simple and enjoyable action platformer so far. Also despite using the same xbox 360 controller for years today it caused my finger to swell and stiffen. I held it the same why I always hold it. Perhaps I was clutching it tighter than I thought during an intense boss battle. #videogames #gaming #Aggelos
