3/5 ★ – thechenry's review of Nine Parchments.
It's kind of a fun co-op game where you just fight monster through levels and occasionally pickup new powers.
Difficulty can spike a lot, but there are check-points and the like. Unlocking everything would take you a while as it requires multiple play throughs. Extra characters are locked behind achievements or challenges in specific levels that can only be unlocked by having specific magic wands/staves.
Fun in co-op. I didn't try it in SP. Enemies do scale with the number of players.
It did, unfortunately, draw a lot of comparisons for me with MAGICKA, which is just generally a better/sillier game in the same vein. Especially with the friendly fire enabled in co-op.
