So here's my take on AK-xolotl. I've tested a bunch of top-down shooter games and this one's definitely one of the more unique and polished ones I've played. The whole armed axolotl thing is just so weird and funny, but the gameplay really delivers. The combat is tight and the progression system with the baby axolotls is a cool twist. It can get a little grindy at higher levels, but overall it's a pretty addicting experience. Not gonna lie, I've spent way too many hours blasting through those levels. If you're into that kind of thing, definitely give it a download.

Description

Been playing AK-xolotl for a couple months now. It’s basically a fast-paced top-down roguelike shooter where you blast your way through hordes of enemies as an armed axolotl. Pretty wild, right? Anyway, the gameplay is super addicting – you run and gun through these randomized biomes, dodging bullets and picking up crazy weapons and power-ups to customize your axolotl. And there’s this cool mechanic where you can rescue baby axolotls and they’ll join your army and inherit your upgrades. It’s a really unique concept that works pretty well.

The graphics look great and the combat is super fluid. It can get a little repetitive after a while, but there’s enough variety in the levels and enemies to keep it interesting. Plus, it’s free-to-play so you don’t have to spend money to enjoy it. Though the ads can get a bit annoying if you don’t pay.

Look, if you’re into rogue-likes and fast-paced shooters, you’ll probably have a blast with AK-xolotl. It’s not perfect, but it’s a pretty solid game that’s easy to pick up and play in short bursts. Worth checking out for sure.
