Demonlisher

Pac-man with shooter dynamics tackled on... the big drawback is the muddy graphics make it more of a chore to play than it should be. The game would benefit if it was just a pure top down 2D game instead of using its ugly 3D isometric view. Otherwise for 2 quarters might be worth looking into if the base gameplay sounds at all appealing to you.

Demonlisher is ugly, and the gameplay may be original, but it doesn't feel like it: run around and shoot monsters while collecting stuff. This game wasmade back when 640x480 was still a thing and 3D was cool (and it would have been ugly even then); today, anyone would whip this up in 2D in Flash and make it actually playable and enjoyable and nice to look at. In the big lottery that is the bargain bin, this game's a dud. Don't waste your money.

Is Demonlisher worth $5? No. The options are lacking, the controls cannot be redefined ingame, and the whole package feels like something put together in the 90s (including a restriction to a limited number of 4:3 resolutions). There are other $5 games that literally give you more. However, a purchase when on sale may not be a bad idea. The central premise (what if pacman was a wizard/priest/whatever?) does result in some interesting gameplay past the boring early levels. In fact, the game outright challenged my skillz: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxw63MuEfG8 For a look at the early levels and a different opinion, here's Jim Sterling's take: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0BoYt6Kzl8

It's too outdated, too little put into it, and too ugly.

I bought this game in a fit of temporary insanity because it was cheap and because for some reason I thought it was a Diablo clone. If I had spent more than a few seconds perusing the Steam store page I would've realized Demonlisher is a Pacman clone, not a Diablo clone, and not a very good one at that. So congratulations, if you're reading this review you've already shown yourself to have more savvy than me! Like Pacman, in this game your character has to traverse a maze-like map and grab all the pellets (souls, in this game) by walking over them. Also like Pacman, there are bad guys that will try and stop you. You can temporarily defeat the bad guys, but this only buys you a few seconds of freedom before they respawn. The Steam store page advertises "stunning 3D graphics" but for a game that was released in 2011 the graphics are pretty terrible. Even worse, the "stunning 3D graphics" are actually detrimental to gameplay! Pacman takes place from a top-down perspective and it wo...

Lolwtf even is this?

It is a kind of reloaded pacman with demons and 3d graphics which may not be the best but which are pleaseant to watch as you can easely see your character and the other elements in the level. An issue though is the lack of customisable settings and resolution.
