Our take on Lux Ex - Legacy
The store copy emphasizes changing waves and adaptive difficulty, but the game is limited to one level with no save games and limited chances. Those constraints make its scope narrower than the replay-focused description may initially suggest.
What is Lux Ex - Legacy?
Lux Ex - Legacy is a vertical shooter built around one stage, with no save games and only a limited number of attempts.
Players clear bugs and glitches while using an astral form to retrieve information from the soul’s light source. Wave patterns are generated anew for each run, and varied weapons and powers allow different approaches. Its difficulty responds to player performance, increasing as skills improve.
