    It was fun to revisit this game a decade later after I originally played it at release, it still totally holds up. The game still has one of my all-time favorite framing devices for a game, with the whole conceit being the experience is a 1970s sci-fi B-movie with director's commentary running over it. It's equal parts silly, funny, and charming. Gameplay-wise, it is a totally serviceable beat 'em up, but the game is absolutely elevated by the visual style and commentary track. The creature…

    https://youtu.be/PQpABirmxu0 Despite the basic gameplay being pretty strait forward the narrative trappings of a director's commentary is worth more than a few laughs.

    #justbeatit The Deadly Tower of Monsters (PC) Solid action-adventure game where you're playing out a 70's sci-fi B-movie with a fictional director's commentary talking over gameplay. Good humor, great shitty costumes and effects add to the 70's vibe. Fun stuff! @polykillpodcast.bsky.social

    I first played it on PS+ years before. Now, older and more knowledgeable than then, the game is very funny and very well made and written to be like a 70's movie. Little "easter" eggs like fishing lines and dolls. On a discount is MUST! I even 100% it in 9 hours with help from videos you can find online. It's a secret gem which deserves more love ❤

    Finished another game. An older one from 2016 called "The Deadly Tower of Monsters". An isometric hack 'n' slash with a vintage sci-fi aesthetic. It was pretty fun. The spoof director commentary humour didn't really land with me much. But it was a short game that didn't overstay it's welcome.

    Starts out strong, but goes on to be the same really primitive thing again and again in terms of gameplay, which likely would be fine if it wasn't for the fact that the quality of the writing begings to diminish with every few minutes also. So, yes - seems great at first, but disappoints by taking a turn for the worse where it doesn't have to.

    The Deadly Tower of Monsters is a hilarious send-up to the Sci-Fi B-movies of classic Hollywood, with an appropriately all-encompassing retro vibe. The whole thing plays like you're in a DVD remaster of an old sci-fi classic complete with funny 'DVD commentary' by the director and producer that lasts through the entire game, while you're playing. As one of three heroic protagonists you'll ascend an evil emperor's tower, blasting and slashing away at hordes of monsters, aliens, violent apes, and…

    It's a real shame that I have to give this a no, because The Deadly Tower of Monsters has a lot of charm to it. They really, really went in for theme and they nailed it - everything has that schlocky B-movie aesthetic from 'stop-motion' monsters missing frame animations, constant 'mistakes' like boom mics swinging into frames, or off-screen 'errors' like a monster grabbing the MC being a giant arm on a stick. But unfortunately The Deadly Tower of Monsters just feels sort of miserable to play.…

    Like most ACE games, what this one lacks in gameplay consistency it makes up in spades with the art direction and general vibe. The "game" as such isn't all that great, all told, but it's a fun romp in a unique setting. Highly recommended if you're looking for something kind of simple but with a lot of character.

    charming and cute with some fun ideas. It just quickly gets repetitive, and it also forces you to swap between characters to progress through the tower which you can fall down at any time. I thought the point of letting you switch between either the female or male astronaut was just player choice, but instead it gives the male astronaut a dedicated item that you are required to use to climb up the tower while the female astronaut just gets a shield you can kinda use in combat that is purely…

    A nice but inoffensive pastiche of 50s American sci-fi movies with terrible 'retro' filters and repetitive gameplay balanced out by a hilarious narration and many welcome references. If you know what the poster is imitating, then chances are this is the game for you.

    The game has a lot of charm, the story is imaginative and funny, but the gameplay is very lackluster. The combat is extremely bland, and combat is the bulk of the gameplay. All three playable character are identical except for one skill. In order to open a path, you are forced to backtrack because you play as the wrong character. The whole game felt like an overstretched Psychonauts level.

    (Reviewed on January 23rd 2017) One of the funniest games of 2016 thanks to the director narrator's fourth wall breaking that is always aware of whatever you're doing in the game, even down to spinning around (commented on twice!) in an idle manner. What started as an innocent and funny examination about spinning in videogames turns into a heart-wrenching story of love and loss. It's a cute retro sci fi romp through movie sets and a gorgeously designed tower. Now ACE Team, give me Zeno Clash 3!

    The Deadly Tower of Monsters is a quirky twin-stick shooter/top-down beat 'em up with a premise of being a DVD commentary of a cheap 50's sci-fi movie that was made in the 70's. And the game hangs a lot of its charm on the player finding that premise endearing. Because the gameplay is without a doubt rough-around-the-edges. As a top-down/isometric game with a mostly fixed camera that tracks and curves around the terrain, much of it being a circular deadly tower, movement and aiming can feel…

    Can't recommend. It's charming, but not worth it. Lot of things I could say, but the one I'll mention here is the character switching. I was playing as the leading man named ♥♥♥♥. I thought to myself, maybe I'll give the leading lady Scarlet a shot. Immediately ran into a obstacle that only the landmines that ♥♥♥♥ uses could clear. So I ran back to the chamber to switch out and come back. Cleared the obstacle. Then right after that found a treadmill that I couldn't run forward on. The…

    Loved this game. Mainly for the spot on send up of 50s Sci Fi movies that I imbibed on Saturday afternnoons on TV in the 70s. It is done with just the right tone and is a great parody. The thing is that the gameplay is very fun and the director's narration is a perfect accompaniment to it. You can turn that off but I don't recommend it. You'll enjoy it much more with that added layer of humor. It can be quite challenging at times and there is a pretty good amount of content here. Highly…

    There is so much to praise here. To begin with, this is the most awesome tower you will ever climb in a video game, not in the sense of challenge (quite the opposite actually) but in the sense of how fun it is. Have you ever seen a low-budget janky sci-fi movie from the 50s and liked it? Did you ever buy a DVD for the director's commentary? What about playing the main actors in a video game while you hear the director commentary on the movie/game that you are playing? Nobody ever did this, it…

    A cute action platformer, the gameplay isn't anything to write home about, it feels most similar to those licensed 6th gen games that were made for every cartoon and movie under the sun. The real charm of the game comes from its presentation, it's played out as a retro sci-fi film with new director's commentary as you go about doing things, complete with stop-motion-esque large monsters, dogs in costumes, flying props hanging from wires, it's all great.

Also didn't like the lack of lines when you are trying to 100% it. Gameplay-wise, not the best. Felt that the weapons had some clear superior choices. Played on mouse+keyboard, controlled fine, albeit a bit floaty. Only had a crash on Survival mode (wave 13, I think), in 2 out of 4 times I reached it.

    I really want to love this game. The art style, voice acting, meta commentary, general 50s/60s sci fi cheesiness is appealing and I like what the game is going for. HOWEVER, the fact that the camera has to reset every time your character stops moving gives me a headache. I don't know why this is in the game. That is the deal breaker for me. Sidenote: the female lead is a baddie tho.

    The top-down fighting and platforming can be awkward, but it's still rewarding, and a special highlight - like landing your first portals in Portal, and like running loop-de-loops in 90's Sonic sidescrollers - is the experience of stepping off of one of the titular tower's ledges and freefalling. However, the main draw is the commentary, the worldbuilding of a fiction-with-a-fiction that is the behind-the-scenes of the movie this is supposed to be, and a surprising bit of worldbuilding for the…

    Very happy to discover this indie gem. Although it seems like basic platform/action-rpg, the game changer for this formula is the addition of B-movie narrative which is accompanying the player throughout the whole gameplay. Highly recommended when it's on sale if you are searching for a short and unique indie game.

    Definitely a product of love. It oozes character and the banter between the director and interviewer is mostly enjoyable and sufficiently silly. I had a couple laughs along the way and the gameplay itself is also pretty fun albeit stale. It's not too long though so it doesn't overstay its welcome at all. Recommended especially for classic monster movie enthusiasts

    Yes, I love campy games/movies! The Nixon impression in the trailer sold it for me 😂 Reminds me of The Deadly Tower of Monsters.
