Bloodroots

Bloodroots is an isometric hack and slash action game. As Mr. Wolf, players use a variety of melee and ranged weapons to kill on-screen enemies through various levels, which are presented in three acts.[3] Weapons have limited durability and will break after multiple uses. Players complete levels by eliminating all enemies present in the stage, and receive a score and grade based on their performance at the end of each level.[4]

Bloodroots received mostly positive reviews from critics. On review aggregator Metacritic, Bloodroots received a score of 81/100 for the PlayStation 4 release,[5] 75/100 for the Nintendo Switch release,[6] and 76/100 for the PC release.[7] Critics praised the game's large arsenal of weapons available for the players to use, but criticized the platforming aspects of the game and unfair deaths.

Jonathon Dornbush of IGN rated the game 8/10, noting that, despite "some slippery nuisances in certain level designs, and a somewhat predictable ending to the otherwise fun story, Paper Cult has crafted a bloody fun time."[3] Kevin McClusky of Destructoid also rated the game positively, writing that, "[despite] some minor flaws, Bloodroots is a manically fun game that oozes style."[8]
