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!

Giving this a 1 star review because it shouldn't be bought in its current state (though I do like the game). It very often freezes on level transitions and does not recover. This means you lose all progress in a run and have to start over. This is likely due to changes in Android, but this game hasn't been updated in 3 years and I don't see this being fixed. Don't buy this game unless you like finishing the last level for the boss with 40 energy and 7 health and then a freeze ends the run.

This is amazing! After several months, I managed to beat this. It is tons of fun. I do have a complaint aboout the controls. Sometimes, I press a button and it doesn't register. Other times, let go of the jump/shoot button, and have my other thumb on one of the move buttons, but it actually shoots. Oh, and sometimes it freezes in the level transitions. And the Timeout upgrade plays funny with the boss :P But, other than that, it absolutely rocks. <3

really cool game except for the controls. you can adjust the distance between left/right and jump, but you can't adjust between left and right. ideally there'd be an additional control so you could move left and right without taking your finger off the screen. I often try to tap left or right and just miss the button and die. it's quite frustrating.
