Face ever-increasing hordes of monsters and evolve your skills in this game with an interesting difficulty level.
Game
The Spell Brigade is an action rogue-like game, developed and published by Bolt Blaster Games, in which you control a series of wizards (only one at a time), in order to eliminate some enemies (insects, trees, etc.), in 3 types of areas that can generally be challenging (such as walls, slippery ice and explosions). The game can be played solo or find an online match.
As the player progresses, they can unlock some wizards, as well as skills that can help them during the matches. During the match itself, as the player defeats enemies, they gain levels so they can choose their skills (and improvements). There is also the possibility of dying (but this can only happen once, and it recharges over time).
During the level, as the player gains levels, they are presented with challenges (with a time limit) to complete. With each challenge, the player gains some skill or improvement. And so, at the end of the level, in addition to a huge horde of enemies, we also have the presence of a boss.
My impressions
The game itself is quite fun (despite being just one of the many) action rogue-likes out there. What makes the game better is its difficulty level, which in addition to the number of enemies, also increases due to the level in which you are playing, where there may be some setbacks.
The first time, it was a bit difficult to understand that I should turn off matchmaking in order to play solo, which was a very negative point (since there are not many people playing this game).
As for improving skills outside of the level and the number of levels, I found it really limited (maybe they will add more in the future).
Achievements
The game has a total of 80 achievements, many of which are not that difficult and can be achieved after playing a few times.
