This depressing title hides a surprisingly charming but also extremely dynamic production. Nobody Saves the World is a dungeon crawler from the creators of Guacamelee! , which was warmly received not only by critics, but also by Steam users - their reviews of this production are mostly positive. However, it is hardly surprising, because while NStW uses familiar framework, the creators have introduced several modifications to the game that give the gameplay a whole new depth.
You don't play such games for the story, but there are quests to pick up from NPCs and factions. What's so special about it? Well, the fact that instead of one you play here as many as... fifteen heroes . Of course, these must be unlocked first, but after doing so, you can freely switch between them. The roster includes, among others, a dragon, a robot, or an egg. Moreover, you can combine the abilities of individual heroes, creating your own deadly mix. The only downside here is boss recycling (some are just color variations of one opponent), but if you get over it, the game will surely give you some fun hours - there is even a coop mode.
