Developed by Tessa, Voheen is a captivating 2D pixel-art metroidvania that blends a dark atmosphere, cryptic storytelling, and deep exploration within a mysterious and decaying world. The game focuses on immersive environments, skill-based combat, and classic progression mechanics that fans of the genre will truly appreciate. 1) STORYLINE: The story of Voheen takes players into a kingdom on the brink of collapse, a world consumed by a dark force that has corrupted every form of life. You play as a lone warrior tied to an ancient prophecy, awakening without memories in a devastated land. As the journey unfolds, it becomes clear that the protagonist is connected to a primordial power capable of restoring balance… or completely destroying what remains of the world. Exploration leads you through forgotten ruins, corrupted forests, labyrinthine dungeons, and abandoned cities. The narrative is delivered in a fragmented way: cryptic dialogues, item descriptions, and encounters with enigmatic NPCs gradually reveal the kingdom’s tragic past and the hero’s true role within it. The deeper you progress, the more unsettling truths emerge about the nature of the darkness and the sacrifice required to stop it.

If you played the original Blasphemous anytime since it came out in 2019, then you know it was a disturbingly bloody little game that proved that pixel-art graphics can still bring the gore and grossness. And if you played it, you'll also know that on top of being filled with messed up enemies and cutscenes, it was also an extremely good Metroidvania. But whether you played the first game or not, you should take note of the impending release of

So firstly, the game was overshadowed by Crimson Desert. Combined with it's learning curve and shaky start, it's just didn't help any. So don't be surprised that you haven't heard of this one even though the kinks were worked out. It's presented as a 2.5D hand-painted, soulslike, metroidvania game. It has a dark fantasy setting with the usual metroidvania mechanics and tropes. The story is cool. But as is the case with most soulslike bosses, they bosses all come with a learning curve that range from simple to downright painful.

bruh, the boss are all so flashy in this new difficulty. all of the new boss from the new biome are all a walking flashbang. i cant see shit. plus with my own char skill effect, i can barely see what happen in the screen. i have 8 healing, but i have to use 7 of em + revive in the new biome in order to make it until i beat the final boss. i didnt expect the new biome will only full of boss stage...

Metroidvanias are one of our favorite genres here at TapTap HQ. We play all of them, from gorgeous games like Hollow Knight and Afterimage to pixel-art masterpieces like Momodora: Moonlit Farewell to just plain weird stuff like Doomblade. Despite checking out everything the genre has to offer, though, we've never seen a game quite like this one. The trailer above is for Ultros, a self-described "psychedelic Metroidvania" on its way from Swedish developer Hadoque. The game sees players crash-land on the Sarcophagus, which is described as, uh, "a giant, space-drifting, cosmic uterus holding an ancient demonic being." Huh. Yeah, that's pretty weird!

While it may have been weak and lacking in some areas. It was definitely something that held me over until more games are released. In essence, the game incorporates many components from both games, to the point that they leave a lot to be desired; nonetheless, it remains fascinating and enjoyable. Consider following me on my other Social Media platforms for, Giveaways and more:

This action packed metroidvania looked like casual platfomer, but oh i was wrong. All the levels having hop 'n' bop combos really hooked me in. To beat all the bosses and find all the secrets are amazing and worthy. Even how little story there was all the bitts of it makes the whole experience better because it's so funny.

Hey Tap Tap family You know Most Metroidvania games focus on fast moment and exploration, but they some times miss the most favorite part of the game that is action but BladeChimera not forgetting that part, this game brings you a deep, unsettling atmosphere mixed with stylish combat and a story filled with mysteries and  tragic moments. If you like games that i like, like Blasphemous, Bloodstained etc... but want something with a darker, horror-inspired world, then Blade Chimera is the perfect choose for you.

VideoGameDunky is someone I can truly relate to; he began his career as a League of Legends content creator and streamer before transitioning to a satirical approach to video game reviews, to the point where half of the community around him felt serious and the other half felt like memes, making it difficult to differentiate from whether his reviews were genuine or just him being overly silly with jokes and humor.

Enjoy my experience through this awesome platformer.  I really love the look and feel especially when it comes to the boss battles.  Very fun!

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it! As the fourth game in the A League of Legends Story series of spin-offs, Convergence continues the trend of extremely polished single-player games that greatly build up the characters and lore of Riot’s eternally popular League of Legends. This time the genre being experimented with is Metroidvania, and the star of the show is Ekko, League’s resident genius inventor-slash-time traveler. As it turns out, these are also the perfect focuses to showcase the industrial city of Zaun, a steampunk dystopia that’s one of the most fascinating locales in

SHOULD I PLAY NEVER GRAVE: THE WITCH AND THE CURSE? This is a demo you should definitely check out. Never Grave: The Witch and The Curse is a 2D action game that combines the best elements of some of my favorite genres. It’s an exploration-heavy Metroidvania with awesome traversal mechanics, but it’s also a roguelite with tons of power-ups to collect. It even has light base-building mechanics, so I always had lots of projects to work on between runs. I had a blast with the demo, and I can’t wait to play the full game.

Hey Tap Tap family! Most Platformering games these days focus on flashy visuals and fast paced action, they lost there classic nostalgic feel that we all want, from this genre I always want something with a challenge a game that takes me back to the golden age of 2D side-scrollers I want to feel the time of Nes, SNES, Sega Game Gear and Sega Genesis where every jump and attack matters for us. And if you're like me and love classic action-platformers and want to feel the same experience that we feel in 1900s then this game is for you, this game will remind you your real gaming skills, that you forget. This game revives the retro feel of old-school platformers while adding modern improvements, giving us an experience that’s both challenging and awsome.

I love this game so much I thought about changing the review into something more legible. 1-4 alpha is my favorite track but tbh the whole soundtrack slaps especially with the shopkeepers. Ps Nintendo has a collab with Zelda Cadence of Hyrule.

SHOULD I PLAY ULTROS? Definitely play it, especially if you like a good adventure with a unique look. Ultros dives into a vast alien world that’s equally strange and enchanting. I got to explore vibrant caverns and alleyways, fight nasty beasts and tendril-flinging monsters, and uncover mysteries about an ancient, demonic being entrapped inside this realm. It’s a singularly great title and my favorite Metroidvania I’ve ever played.

"Dead Cells" is an action-platformer game that melds stunning artwork, game-altering weaponry and gadgets, and lethal maneuvers to construct an immersive narrative. The essence of the game centers around its intricate interplay of risk and reward, with each new zone unveiling artifacts, weapons, or skills that both entice and aid in the quest to reveal the profound enigma of the Dead Cells. While the placement and progression of levels establish the game's structural foundation, the layout, enemy arrangements, and ever-shifting items breathe life into its core. Every playthrough varies sufficiently to sustain tension and unpredictability, defying the assumption that we've seen it all after countless runs. We are still determining the surprises that await, whether a well-timed assortment of equipment or shiny new treasures gleaming in the subsequent round.

SHOULD I PLAY WORLDLESS? Give this one a miss. Worldless has some ideas that are neat in theory, but frequently end up feeling like they were implemented by someone unfamiliar with the concept of video games. Particularly aggravating is the combat, which stops the game’s free exploration for a stodgy back and forth turn-based battle system. Combine that with frustrating traversal puzzles in which errors drop you back to the beginning, and this beautiful abstract trip turns into a slog that just isn’t worth making. For a better version of this experience, try
