About Nimillion: The Last Expedition
Nimillion: The Last Expedition is a physics-driven Metroidvania adventure where you pilot a thruster-only spaceship through a decaying interstellar colony. Developed by Digital Candy and released March 31 2026 it blends retro arcade mechanics with modern platforming challenges. The game tasks you with solving environmental puzzles battling aggressive wildlife and navigating treacherous zero-G zones. Its core loop centers on mastering momentum-based flight mechanics and gradually unlocking tools to access new areas. A single-player story mode takes you through a large but tightly designed ship riddled with hazards and secrets.
Gameplay
Controls revolve around a joystick that manipulates your ship’s thrusters requiring precise input to maneuver through tight corridors or gravitational traps. Each level demands memorizing momentum curves as sudden stops or sharp turns can send you crashing into walls or into the void. Abilities like jetpack bursts or shield deployment open new paths but must be upgraded through collected resources. Sessions often involve repeated attempts to solve a physics-based puzzle or defeat a boss with shifting movement patterns. The game’s difficulty spikes sharply in later chapters where environmental hazards combine with enemy AI to create intense survival scenarios.
What Players Think
PlayPile community ratings average 8.7/10 with 12,450 reviews. Average playtime is 14.5 hours but completion rates split wildly, 37% finish the main story while only 12% hit 100% exploration. Achievement completion sits at 68% with 203 total trophies. Critic scores top at 82/100 praising “brutal but fair” design. Community moods: 45% “Challenging” 30% “Nostalgic” 25% “Frustrating.” One user wrote “Controls take 2 hours to learn but 20 to master, perfect if you hate checkpoints.”
PlayPile's Take
Nimillion is best for players who enjoy physics-based puzzles and retro arcade difficulty. At $29.99 it offers mixed value, achievements add 30 hours of post-game content but the core loop wears thin after repeated deaths. The game shines in its creative level design but may frustrate casual players. If you thrive on mastering momentum mechanics and don’t mind replaying sections until you “get it” this one’s worth the investment.
