How it feels

A chaotic rhythm-action roguelike where you blast through procedurally generated levels to a metal soundtrack.

What players say

Players say Metal Tales Overkill is a very short, Binding of Isaac-like twin-stick roguelike with a standout heavy metal soundtrack and comic-book art, but it feels more like an ad for the featured bands than a full game. Some find the constant loading screens and progress-halting bugs frustrating, and fans of metal enjoy it more than others.
