There’s only a handful of games that I have gone out of my way to purchase while they’re still in earl access on Steam. One of them was Crypt of the Necrodancer, which played to my tastes in both cute macabre games and games with good soundtracks. While I originally took the loose risk of purchasing indie game Dead Cells because of it’s metroidvania offerings and promises of Dark Souls-like challenge, I was happy to find much like Crypt, it took sported a compelling soundtrack to it.
Unlike Crypt, however, Dead Cells features a far different type of soundtrack than the upbeat catchy rhythm of the former.
