About this game

Downwell is a curious game about a young person venturing down a well in search of untold treasures with only his Gunboots for protection. Make your way further and further down into the darkness filled with nasty creatures and mysterious secrets to collect the spectacular red gems scattered about the rocks. Step into precariously placed shops and buy some helpful items or level up between levels to battle well-dwelling monsters and uncover hidden caves filled with riches and relics. No two trips down the well are ever the same!

The Amazing Gunboots - The fashionable and lethal Gunboots allow players to unleash a torrent of firepower on the nasty creatures dwelling in the well and slow your decent with each shot.

Unique Weapons & Items - Get different weapons, shop for peculiar items and obtain powerful upgrades that all stack and affect the way you play!

A New Adventure Every Time - Each level in Downwell is procedurally generated, so no two trips down the well are ever the same providing a fresh new adventure each time!

Absolutely love this game! Graphics are obviously very pixelated but gives an intentional retro look. The controls can be somewhat difficult due to no onscreen buttons present but this enables a full veiw of upcoming action. The gameplay is fun and addictive. Quite an original concept to my knowledge. Hard mode is unlocked after defeating the boss and can be accessed by going far left within the style selection at the start of a game. I really hope they make a second one but not change too much

I've bought this game on other platforms before, but it's so convenient to have on my phone. I really enjoy this game, and everything about it is amazing. My one criticism is that it would be perfect with controller support, since my thumbs either get in the way, or I have to bend them quite far down which can be a bit uncomfortable. That would make it into a 5 star game for me personally. Overall, a really fantastic game!

One of the few games I keep going back to. It has a style and substance. The sounds are robust and rewarding. The quick gameplay means I can grab a go between jobs or I can go hard when more time permits. The depth of the mechanic is surprising. You should try this of you have any interest in the modern retro theme or just one a solid gaming experience with replay value.
