Ubisoft resurrects Prince of Persia in a fantastic new Metroidvania form

SHOULD I PLAY PRINCE OF PERSIA: THE LOST CROWN? Yes! As a long-time fan of the Prince of Persia franchise, I was excited to see it coming back, but even gamers who are totally unfamiliar with previous games should be able to find plenty to love in Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown. This reboot puts players into the role of Sargon, a warrior of Persia who must venture into the dangerous region of Mount Qaf after the prince is kidnapped. In gameplay terms, that means exploring a fascinating region in the form of a tightly designed 2D Metroidvania-style adventure.

This creepy platformer just might give you nightmares

SHOULD I PLAY UGLY? Give Ugly a go if you’re into platformers, puzzlers, or dark fairy-tale worlds. Even though controlling two characters simultaneously in a mirrored world can be incredibly disorienting, Ugly’s puzzle mechanics are truly unique and blend perfectly with the game’s dark atmosphere. And though I wouldn't classify Ugly as horror, there were still plenty of twisted memories to unlock that genuinely gave me the creeps.

This sword-swinging Metroidvania recalls Hollow Knight in the best way - Doomblade Quick Review

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it! Doomblade is a challenging but charming Metroidvania that gives off Hollow Knight vibes but manages to have a unique identity all its own. Stepping into the shoes of a tiny, tentacled creature known as Gloom Girl, I picked up an evil, sentient sword and set out on an intense adventure to take out the Dread Lords, otherworldly baddies who’ve wiped out the Gloomfolk and created a dystopian world. That adventure challenged my skills as much as anything I’ve played this year, but it was well worth fighting through to explore this wild, interesting world.

Mega Man meets roguelike action in this brutally hard 2D platformer - 30XX Quick Review

SHOULD I PLAY 30XX? If you’re a fan of the Mega Man series, 30XX is a game you won’t want to miss! It’s basically a roguelite version of Mega Man X, and that combination is just as amazing as it sounds. Even if you’re not big on Mega Man, there are plenty of other reasons to check this title out, like the gorgeous graphics, smooth controls, and insanely addictive gameplay loop. If that’s not enough to sell you on the game, it also has a level editor, couch co-op, and online gameplay.

The city of Ancora was founded hundreds of years ago by the first Guildmaster Othniel and powered by the Saga, a collection of all the wondrous stories in the Bible. This city provides light and life to all the land. At the top of the city stands the Spire Of Light which shines with the power of the stories contained in the Bible.  Meanwhile Ancora is still recovering from the attack of the Great Shadow, his greatest enemy intent on stealing his 11 exciting missions of biblical stories: Messages from the Angels (the angel Gabriel appears to Mary, Angels and Shepherds (the birth of Jesus), Jesus and the Fishermen (Jesus calls his first disciples), etc. The Great Shadow was defeated by the simplest of treasures: a simple wooden cup (the Holy Grail) that symbolizes the greatest story of the entire saga, unfortunately many of the stories were lost in the attack and the Spire has faded. It will be our task to recover them. It is a world-famous digital title where the stories of the Bible come to life for the opportunity to discover Jesus and engage with the passages of the Bible. Here the stories of the Bible come to life in new and action-packed ways thanks to a fully customizable character entering and discovering the adventures of the Bible using the best parkour (free running) skills, climbing and operating contraptions to overcome timed doors.  We will meet Jesus and experience the miracles he performed. This title was the winner of the Premier Digital 'App of the Year 2015', 'App of the Year 2017' and 'Innovative Use of Media in Outreach' awards.

HAAK is a Metroidvania-Platformer. I really enjoyed the game from start to finish. The main quests are just so good because of smooth progression of the game. Side quest are also worth the time to do them. Just was felt sad to end it. I played this game on my Android phone, sometimes with controller to make it a little easier to beat the bosses. đź“– Storyline: The game takes place in a world ravaged by disaster. The once glorious city has been reduced to ruins, and the survivors struggle for survival. In the south, a land called Sanho has mostly remained unaffected by the calamity due to its unique geographical environment and has grown into something of a sanctuary. The protagonist, Haak, is a traveler from a small northern town. He chose to leave his home and ventured south to survive.

Maybe this is not an accurate platformer but I must admit that since I first met him I fell completely in love. Since this game brings music inspired by the 80s, a retro touch that when playing makes it more alive. It is a futuristic retro game but dragging the 80's, in which the ship has to be careful when moving to the track, however, time is numbered, since the training and will serve as enough support, because for the next track, it will have to be done in less time.

Call of Duty 2024: Black Ops 6

"Call of Duty 2024: Black Ops 6" or what it will entail. However, based on the past "Call of Duty" releases, it is likely that the game will be a first-person shooter game set in a military or war-themed environment with a focus on multiplayer gameplay. It may also include a single-player campaign mode with an engaging storyline and a variety of multiplayer modes, including team deathmatch, domination, and search and destroy.

#TheMostChallengingPlatformer

Others have already nominated some very good and hard platformers and I would like to nominate my personal favourite, Celeste. In Celeste, you play as a girl who is climbing a mountain to confront her fears. Throughout the mountain, there are several unique areas to explore and characters to meet. The game is insanely challenging to say the least but everything seems fair when you reach the top: the peak of the mountain. It is the most satisfying feeling ever and I cannot convey it though words only.

Maybe many people don't know this game.. but I grew up playing this game. It's Cave Story a.k.a Doukutsu Monogatari. Well.. I guess I can say it's an underrated game. It's a pixelated game developed by a Japanese game studio named Pixel and published by Nicalis. Not only the most challenging platformer, but to me it's also the most memorable and sweetest story-based game. The gameplay and all of its soundtracks are great!

One of the best modern Metroidvanias gets an even better sequel - Blasphemous 2 Quick Review

SHOULD I PLAY BLASPHEMOUS 2? This is the easiest “YES” I’ve given in ages, unless you can't handle how nasty it is. Blasphemous 2 is a sequel to what was already one of the best and most memorable Metroidvanias of the modern era. But much more than just retreading the exact same territory, this sequel builds wisely on the strengths of the first game. It’s not just a long adventure and not just a return to the disturbing, gothic world of 2019’s

Pepper Grinder brings retro vibes, power tools, and pirates together in an awesome platformer

SHOULD I PLAY PEPPER GRINDER? Play It, especially If you like retro graphics, buried treasure, and power tools. Pepper Grinder is a great (and great-looking) pixelated platformer. I had a blast drilling through bedrock, spinning through enemies, and looking for treasure in this short but sweet demo. TIME PLAYED I sank around an hour into Pepper Grinder. The demo only features a few levels, but it still showed off what the game was all about. I learned all the basic mechanics, was introduced to the story, and most importantly, got to spend plenty of time drilling!

Sonic Superstars takes my favorite hedgehog back to basics, but with some new tricks

SHOULD I PLAY SONIC SUPERSTARS? Play it, especially if you’re an old-school Sonic the Hedgehog fan or just love platformers. Sonic Superstars is the latest game to take its franchise back to basics, and I love it! Jumping into this 2D adventure felt just like playing a classic Sonic game. Although the lack of voice acting (or dialogue at all, really) reminded me of what I hated about that era, Sonic Superstars

Brawlhalla, perhaps it's not an actual platformer or maybe it is I'm not quite sure what the platformer genre is, but this game is definitely quite challenging, it's not going to be quite easy to learn each characters move set, but when you do it's going to be fun to test your skills against people

A Mobile Puzzle Platformer You MUST Try! | Ugly Quick Review

Ugly is a fantastic puzzle platformer that punches far above its weight in the mobile gaming space. Combining gorgeously illustrated artwork and environments with a hauntingly somber and melancholic ambience and soundtrack, Ugly honestly deserves to be sued for false advertising. This game is damn beautiful. But a game’s visuals can only take it so far. Luckily, Ugly is also held up by extremely competent platforming and deceptively challenging puzzles.

The best (and best-looking) Metroidvania since Hollow Knight - Afterimage Quick Review

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? If you’ve got any appreciation for the Metroidvania style of game at all, then you owe it to yourself to play Afterimage. Coming off a successful Kickstarter campaign just a year ago, developer Aurogon Shanghai has released the next masterpiece in a masterpiece-heavy genre. With tight controls, compelling progression and exploration, and especially a stunning hand-drawn art style, Afterimage pays homage to the classics while also undeniably forging its own strong identity via a fascinating and diverse fantasy world. It’s really good.

A Hauntingly Beautiful Mobile Puzzle Platformer! | Ugly Review

Ugly is a macabre puzzle platformer set in a twisted fairy tale world. Its beautiful art style is evocative of the innocence that exudes from the drawings of children warped by the scars of trauma and abandonment. You play as the unnamed prince who sticks out like a sore thumb. He is our titular “ugly” character with his harsh eyes and bulbous nose, a stark contrast to the sophistication and hand-crafted beauty that surrounds him in the vast castle. Perhaps that is why the story starts with him waking up locked away in the basement, hidden away from the world.
