Evaluation

Deadlings: Rotten Edition launched on November 11, 2014 as a complete, self-contained package. The store description presents a fully defined content slate — 70 levels, a Nightmare mode, bonus levels, and various Steam features — all framed as already included in this "Rotten Edition" release. There are no DLC listings, no unreleased content, no roadmaps, and no developer posts suggesting additional content was ever planned after launch. The game appears to have shipped as a finished product with no post-launch content cycle. ONE MORE LEVEL has made no communications about future updates or expansions for this title.

About this game

Death is lonely. He has zero friends on his FaceTome account and no one to hang out with. So, in order to feel better he begins “Project Deadlings”. Death buys a factory where he can build his laboratory and begin training a massive army of zombie minions.

As the army of Deadlings grows, the mazes of the laboratory become deadlier, loaded with puzzles and death-defying traps. Different Deadlings have their own unique abilities: Bonesack is agile - he can run and jump, Creep can climb on walls and ceilings, Lazybrain treads slowly but carefully and Stencher... well Stencher has gastric problems so he can use his powerful gas clouds to fly.

You will have to combine all of these abilities to find your way in Death's Maze.

Can you help Death to kill his boredom? Will you be able to navigate all 60+ levels available in Deadlings? Will you complete Project Deadlings, and successfully train all of your zombie minions?
