On a dark and stormy night, 11-year-old Minerva discovers a haunted house deep in the woods and before she knows it, she is in for the fight of her life!
Don't Die, Minerva! is a rogue-lite action RPG set in a haunted house. Armed with a flashlight and a backpack full of friendly stuffed animals who are brought to life by the house's magic, Minerva must explore the mansion and defeat its ghostly inhabitants.
Along the way, Minerva meets helpful characters who can aid her on her quest. Death is nearly inevitable, but with each run you will gain valuable essence that can unlock new abilities and better loot.
With multiple levels of difficulty ranging from an easy stroll in a moonlit park to a punishing challenge only to be faced by the bravest of souls, Don't Die, Minerva! offers crisp controls, exhilarating action, spectacular visuals, and a deep stat-driven loot system.
No updates in a year, probably best to avoid which is a shame as it does have a unique charm.
Seems to be abandonware at this point. Avoid.
I miss the culling...
BUT, honestly this game isnt that bad. Went in expecting to alt F4 but played for about 2 hours and I plan on actually beating it. My only grip is how little upgrade crystals you get from runs.
Edit: 12 hours in and its just a grind to get half-assed buff that arent great. Health pool is god and damage output isnt great at all,...
As much as I love this game, I do not recommend anyone purchase or bother investing anything into it until they patch a game-breaking bug.
The game itself is very fun, runs well and I havent encountered any issues. This would have been an even better game if Xaviant Games continued working on it, which leads to the reason why I cant recommend it, its abandonware. The last game update was mid 2020. Such a shame.
