+This was recommended to me by the Poles...and, well, I don't regret playing it.

+The puzzles in this game start out pretty simple, but //quickly// get more difficult, to the point that I was stumped many times. Since my focus was on the story (that is, cute demon girls) I //did// look at a walk-through, though I don't think I'll look at it the next time I play...which'll be in a few years, so I forget all the solutions.
+<cite>Helltaker</cite> is fully free-to-play. In fact, you have the option of paying for the art-book...but that same art-book can be unlocked by completing the game. It's odd in a good way.
-===== Review =====
+The art and music in this game is just excellent. Plenty of personality in the art...but, the music really won me over: some of the tracks, like [[https://mittsies.bandcamp.com/track/apropos-2|Apropos]], really give me the feeling that this is //Hell// and not just a goofy game. It all fits together really nicely.
+The story is extremely simple: you are the **<dfn>Helltaker</dfn>**, whose goal is to build a harem of demon girls. Hilariously, <mark spoiler>this plan actually fails in the end, since he ends up in <dfn>Beelzebub</dfn>'s mansion in the void</mark>. The balls and determination on that man. Yeah, there's nothing more to it.
