![]() Unlike most games in this genre, UnderMine seems absolutely petrified of giving someone too much power, though has no issue destroying what little power you have through curses. More often than not, relics offer questionable value and in some cases, even good perks can kill you. Most relics either boost stats, give a distinct perk like the ability to walk on spikes, slightly change existing mechanics like adding lightning to throwing the pickaxe, or influence play style like fork shoots three pickaxes instead of one. UnderMine has countless modifiers, except the four or five basic elements hardly change. ![]() For example, Dead Cells has bombs, turrets, bows, heavy weapons, and light weapons, all of which come into play at different points or impact specific situations. Where UnderMine differs from similar games is the most relics impact stats or modify abilities, over vastly changing the game. These include, but are not limited to, new weapons, potions, bigger shops, benefits at the start, more options, fast travel, and more. As players progress, relics, blessings, and curses will change how things progress, with various, unlocks changing things on later runs. Sadly, the lack of dodge stands out initially, though jump functions in a similar way. There is a swinging attack, throwing attack, jump, and bomb. This togue-in-cheek interaction will likely cause a snicker and some slight amusement beyond an otherwise straightforward adventure, a trait that also appears during gameplay sections.Ī brief tutorial really explains all there is to know about UnderMine. Arguably the most amusing part of the journey isn’t the story, as much as NPC regarding the player character as interchangeable and disposable. Through progression, other NPCs and characters will add their own elements to the world or portion to the story, like Lillyth suggests there is more to Arkanos, but their contributions are limited. The core story is Arkanos has tasked countless peasants to enter the mines to defeat bosses and obtain tokens to open a gate. ![]() UnderMine doesn’t have much of a story, though it makes the most of a select handful of situations. UnderMine hopes to join Enter the Gungeon and Dead Cells by doing similar things, though is it enough to be a staple or is it lackluster title that can’t stand on its own. Sometimes things are hard, other times easy, though the importance of luck hinges on the ability to actually play. They also create a lot of interesting situations, some created by enemy arrangement and others weapon load-outs, that make for a fascinating experience. Streamers enjoy the dynamic elements and viewers like that every run feels different. Right now roguelike games are at an all-time high, due to how versatile they are. ![]()
