It's a fun casual hack and slash.The only way to play this is with an xbox controller.I do understand those saying the game is bad becauseIt's a fun casual hack and slash.The only way to play this is with an xbox controller.I do understand those saying the game is bad because PC controls are broken,but i seriusly think you should not buy these type of games if it is not forplaying with gamepads on your TV,It gets better with a friend in local co-opNow, the combat: it's bad. A.I aside, the strong attack combos are way too slow, slower than they shouldmaking impossible to use a 3 combo strong attack with more than 1 enemy close to you.Than breaks a lot of your choices, making them ,much more smaller.the art style is nice

Sacred Citadel is a fine hack n’ slash side-scroller, and it’s even better with friends. The online netcode could use an upgrade and I wish there was a bit more content to flesh out the package, but for the price, Sacred Citadel is a solid adventure to be had. And it doesn’t force you into piles of menus to manage your character – that’s a bonus in itself, am I right?

The game is rather simple in design, but never felt boring even when the combat got far too easy. The character level progression was addicting, and co-op with some friends is a really enjoyable and implemented well.

Sacred Citadel gets a lot of core mechanics right, and it's always fun to load up on powerful new loot. If you just want to run around and smash stuff and don't care about compelling antagonists or heroes, this does the job. But if you're looking for the total package, plenty of great alternatives are already out there.

A nice presentation helps make things a little more interesting, but there's still no escaping the fact that Sacred Citadel fails to inspire much passion. It's an okay game, a solid arcade throwback, but it's a mere face in a crowd and doesn't stand out very much.
