A retro-inspired arena shooter with fast melee combat and exploration through a colorful gothic open world.

What players say

Players praise the unique Doom-engine Castlevania fusion and striking art style, but opinions split on the difficulty and design. Some love the creative bosses and open-ended exploration, while others find the combat frustrating with no block button and unforgiving damage. It is short, free, and best experienced for its atmosphere.
