How it feels

a punishing retro action-adventure that feels like a grim, gory metroidvania where every swing and decision carries weight

What players say

Players praise it as a tight, retro-style metroidvania that wears its Castlevania 2 inspiration proudly. Combat is punishing but fair, with snappy controls. The morality system has real consequences and multiple endings encourage replays. A frequent complaint is the abundance of instant-kill pitfall traps, especially in later dungeons.
