  5.0

  Its uninspired visuals, chaotic combat, and overall lack of identity all work against it in a popular and overcrowded genre. Though it passably executes on the basic blueprint of an action roguelite and it can be fun to buildcraft around its cast of playable characters, Blade Assault simply doesn’t do enough to justify a spot in your library.

  7.0

  The gameplay loop is solid, but there are quite a few bugs that need to be patched before Blade Assault could be classed as a truly good game. I wouldn’t call the bugs game-breaking but they certainly make the game harder to enjoy. It’s a shame because it’s obvious how much effort and care has gone into this; the assault system is unique and requires the player to choose between decreasing enemy difficulty or upgrading player abilities, which is a great risk/reward system.
