How it feels

Frantic, fast-paced arena combat where you struggle to survive against ever-tightening, procedurally generated levels and endless waves of enemies.

What players say

Players are split on Shillelagh. Some praise its unique tree-planting cycle and black metal soundtrack, while others say the no-fire-cap click-spam shooting and single arena grow tiresome quickly. Several note it is clearly inspired by Devil Daggers but lacks that game's polish.
