15 Ambitious Video Games That Flopped

Below

It’s crazy to think that Below was announced at E3 2013 as an Xbox console exclusive and then delayed continuously until 2018. Nevertheless, it felt like something special from Capybara Games – a dark, moody action-adventure title teeming with mystery. Though having roguelike elements wasn’t the worst idea, the repetitive levels, snail-like progression and numerous ways to get insta-gibbed made the permadeath feel too punishing. The developer made some improvements over time, but it remains at a “Mostly Positive” rating on Steam with only 1040 user reviews and a mixed critical reception.
