Heart&Slash is a 3D brawler that is set in a world where machines are all that remains from the Human civilization. You play as Heart, an innocent robot fighting to escape the grip of the evil and all seeing machine QuAsSy (Quality Assurance Systems). But make no mistake Heart&Slash is a hard game. Every death is permanent and means a new randomly generated level for you to start over with a different set of weapons and items you can use, new enemies to fight and secrets to explore.
If you're looking for a hack and slash action release, and don't mind the extremely sensitive in-game camera and occasional game crash, then Heart and Slash might be what you're looking for. Hopefully, the game is soon patched so that it can offer a smoother experience for players!

The game is very cool, if you like the genre, you will probably like it if you give it a chance, the story is nothing to write home about but it is moving, the proposal is original without a doubt, it is a fast game and has some very cool final bosses , we can also control several characters and there is a whole arsenal of attack available.
The first number of rounds that wasted my time, the multiple crashes and camera problems are just too big to overlook. It is such a shame, because the arsenal and action feels so grand. Maybe in time, and with an update, Heart&Slash is something I could adore.
This game is a perfect example of what a Kickstarter games should be. The controls are responsive, it looks amazing, and they understood their scope of production. A great Rougelike that can appeal to so many different aspects of other action genres, it makes for a good entry point of roguelike gaming. Hands down, this has to be one of the best games...
There’s plenty of good here that’s sadly held back by a variety of issues that don’t necessarily lie with its developers, but most likely within finding the ideal balance between the genres it embraces.
