This is absolutely packed to the brim with stupid f***ing horse**** (and a few technical issues on the Switch) but it was very addictive and fun when I didn't feel the need to pull out my hair. Whoever designed the last couple of crystal trials should be hired by government intelligence as a torturer expert and subsequently prosecuted for committing war crimes. Trying to 100% complete the game was also a nightmare that I gave up on.

Really mixed on this one, combat is satisfying but too slow and gets annoying later.. art style is amazing, bosses were annoying.

Levels were also not that good.

If you're looking for a true and challenging Metroidvania, Blasphemous is your way to go.

It's a very punishing platformer, if you blink, you're dead. Lots of secrets around and a fun map to explore.

The art is amazing by the way.

You should definitely try it.

I'm not a fan of the Metroidvania genre but this is the best metroidvania game for me after Ori. I truly enjoyed it from the beginning to the end. I absolutely loved its pixel art graphics, soundtrack, level design and its gameplay *chef's kiss*. This game made me want to play more Metroidvania games. Can't wait for the sequel!
