Children of Morta sets its story in a distant land but copes with themes closer to our daily lives that one would expect. It is a story of simple emotions we all know so well and value more than sometimes we dare to admit: love and hope, longing and uncertainty, ultimately loss and sacrifice we are willing to make to save the ones we care the most for. Embark on the adventure of an extraordinary family of heroes. With the Corruption spreading through the land, guardians of the Mountain Morta have to stand up against the ancient evil. But... it's not a story about saving the universe. It's a story about a valiant family standing together while the world around them is being devoured by darkness.

I've played both Hades and Children of Morta, and Children of Morta is OK. It's just a bit too grind-y. Meaning like the combat revolves a bit too much around killing hordes of weak enemies without much strategy, for my taste anyway. But it's pretty solid for what it is. I'd rather just keep playing Hades.
So is this game worth it? I got a huge backlog of other games, so I gotta start making decisions of which game to spend time on.

I enjoyed the game on Xbox. I didn't think I would. Played it because of a XBL Gold Rewards Challenge. Found myself going back and playing it for well over 30 hours.
If you like Dungeon Crawler type of games then yes you'll enjoy this one. Granted the zombie enemy sound is ripped straight from Minecraft. Honestly found that aspect to be extremely annoying.

I thought this game was great, has a similar feel to Hades but you get to play as a bunch of unique characters that feel different from each other. Also has a nice upgrade tree and it well paced for a "rogue-lite." I'd recommend it but hard to compare it to other games you have without knowing what they are.

It's a family rogue lite with good graphics and story. I played it on PC and would recommend it.

Good graphics is definitely a stretch. With that said I picked it up to play couch co-op.

Agreed.

It's pixel art. That's not good graphics. Clean, but still leaves it wanting in some aspects.

Fun couch co-op though!

Personally, I thought it was worth it. I am not a huge roguelike fan, but this is one that stood out for me (along with Dead Cells & Hades). I would say that if you enjoy that genre or if you enjoyed games like Gauntlet at the arcade back in the day, then it is well worth a play. I didn't get a chance to try coop as my kids are too young for it at the moment, but I could totally see it being an awesome couch coop game.

Amazing game, but very twitchy combat. Wouldn't recommend playing handheld.

I really enjoyed this game. The pixel art is well done and I felt it was charming. The game play was pretty straight forward if you've played other rougelike games. One thing I really enjoyed is the game encourages/rewards you for playing all the different characters. I played this multiplayer, and if you have a friend/spouse/kid that you can grind through this with it will be worth your time. For just under $9 this is very worth it.

This is a great game with local co-op to boot. Played it on Xbox Gamepass and decided to buy all the DLC because I enjoyed it so much. I think one added pets and all the proceeds went to an animal related charity. Awesome game and I like these devs.
