Nuclear Throne Reviews

A perfectly constructed neo-arcade game from genre master Vlambeer, which perfectly marries twin-stick shooters with roguelike punishment.

Metro GameCentral

Nuclear Throne is an absolute blast, whether you’re kicking off your very first handful of runs or attempting your hundredth. The action is intense, the pace rapid, and the difficulty tough but rewarding. We may be spoilt for choice when it comes to indie gems, but Nuclear Throne is one you shouldn’t pass up on.

Nintendo Insider

The difficulty is absolutely harsh and is sure to turn some off, but it feels completely fair, outside of the rare fake chest, which can quickly destroy an otherwise promising run. However, no matter how frustrating a death can be, I constantly found myself right back into it without a second thought.
