Matrioska Games’ energetic hack-and-slasher Fallen Angel was released last October. If you’ve played it through and you’re looking for more challenge, you’ve found it: Matrioska just added Challenge Modes and Boss Rush Mode to the game.
The Challenge modes handicap your character in one of several ways (play without upgrades, play without weapons, turn on permadeath). You can activate the Boss Rush Mode at the start of a new game, and face all the bosses in one grueling gauntlet. You’ll receive SOME help — three randomized loot chests will be collectible between battles — but other than that you’re on your own. You can choose to either face every boss in a row or play a randomized mixup. Beat ’em quick to secure a place on the online leaderboards.
The framing device for Fallen Angel takes inspiration from the Old Testament and is more accurate than these things tend to be (Lucifer, the character you control, is a fallen angel and not a horned super-demon). But…not SO accurate that...
