The basic premise of Devil Daggers is fiendishly simple. Before you know it, you're flinching your way through now familiar waves of hellspawn, your ears filling with shrieks and snapping bones.

The anaemic glow of your daggers greets you like an old friend.

The only logical thing to do, naturally, is to throw yourself back into the hellscape and try again. If anything it only confirms what you already know - that person is an impostor and a charlatan and they don't deserve to be ahead of you. You can download and watch the replay, if you like, but it doesn't make you feel any better. You start to wonder how they managed it - what fiendish pact did they make with Devil Daggers that helped them luck into a score they patently don't deserve? I know this because I spent a good hour getting increasingly resentful of fellow Eurogamer staffer Ian, who was just 0.1501 seconds ahead of my best time. As you pore over the two leaderboards - Steam friends and global - it's difficult not to develop an intense, roiling hatred for the person one step ahead of you.

Reviewing your score at the end of a run is like coming back from another dimension in which time runs at a different pace - was that really just 58.4539 seconds? Devil Daggers As the ceaseless waves of enemies stack, the seconds stretch into weeks each one a living nightmare in which you're only just able to stay ahead of the pack. Invigorating and infuriating in equal measure, Devil Daggers is a journey of self torment that will do terrible things to your brain.ĭevil Daggers is brutally, gleefully hard.
