“Troll” is such a strong word for this 2D platformer with nearly 240 uniquely inventive levels. Don’t let screaming YouTubers convince you that this game is unfair. It’s fair. Sure, there are buzzsaws but they’re NICE buzzsaws. You will curse the guy who made Level Devil (Me😈) then ask for more.

Steam reviews

What players say

Players overwhelmingly recommend this short, frustrating trolling platformer, mainly for its clever, funny traps that make failing entertaining.

Most players describe the game as a cheerful-looking platformer that constantly tricks them, and many find the deaths funnier than annoying. Players enjoy the surprise traps, fake-outs and rule changes that punish guessing, the minimalist pixel graphics, and the fact that most levels feel fair once solved. Some say the game works best in short bursts because frustration builds quickly. Common complaints are repetitive trolls, a few unavoidable deaths, fine movement that is hard to control, very long late levels, and a PC display problem that forces fullscreen with distorted windowed mode. Several players also say their progress was lost after new levels were added. Some players want more levels, and a few complain that the short length does not match the price.

Criticised

  • Repetitive trolling

    Players feel the jokes repeat, with many variations of the same trick getting tiresome.

    Some players
  • Unavoidable deaths

    Players say some traps cannot be anticipated, so dying is forced rather than fun.

    Some players
  • Clumsy controls

    Players report that fine movement is hard to control, making small position corrections frustrating.

    A few players
  • Lost progress after updates

    Players say their saved progress disappeared when new levels were added.

    A few players
Who it suits
Suits players who enjoy rage-bait platformers, trial-and-error puzzles and dark, self-aware humour, and who are happy with a short game.
Who should skip it
Players who get easily frustrated, want long fair challenges or need precise controls should skip it.

Short vs. long playtime: Players with very long playtimes, some with dozens of hours, mention speedrun achievements and the community editor, while newer players mostly focus on laughing at the traps.
