    Decent metroid-vania

    Pac-Man reinvented in metroid-vania format. There are some rough edges, but it's really fun.

    Enjoyable, Clever, and Frustrating

    I’m about 40 hours deep into Shadow Labyrinth. I enjoy the battles and overall gameplay, and I love the incorporation of classic games in a new way (PAC-Man, Galaga, Dig Dug). Cons: I feel the game goes on too long for what it is and often times can be very frustrating trying to figure out the next steps. More often than I usually do, I find myself turning to the internet to direct me to what I need to do to progress. I plan to finish the main story. If you love Metroidvania games, this one might be up your alley, but it could be a bit whacky for purist. I’m a casual fan of such games and do like this one.

    Just replay Hollowknight

    The gsme hss some cool ideas that dont end up worling at the end of the day, and boy does this gsme LOVE to waste your time, my god! The map is unedsessrily big, like empy long hallways with zero rewards big to stretch hours played. Games super essy too until literallt the last boss’s which is so weird to me, you learn absolutely nothing about combat except that its trash. Go olay Blaspehmous or Holloknight this games a waste if time.

    Mixed

    It's an extremely mixed game. Not terrible, but not great. If you're big into metroidvanias you'd probably be fine checking it out. Takes a bit too long to really get good.
