One of the best 'vanias

Right when I started this game, I felt at home. It is basically a combination of the best the Castlevania series has to offer. You won't encounter any groundbreaking new mechanics, but a refinement of what made the series great. The 'souls' from the Aria/Dawn of Sorrow games make a re-appearance as 'shards' and the familiars from Symphony of the Night do too. There is a crafting system, the well known treasure hunt all across the map and lots of nerdy references to other games (including Shovel Knight). If you liked those three games, you will love this one. The story doesn't offer any big surprises either, but it is well written and the atmosphere of the game draws you right in. But a serious warning: it is hard to stop playing, once you have started! "I will get that shard!", "I just need some more of that resource", "I'll just have a look how the next section looks like..." - and suddenly it's 4 am. The one caveat is one that is shared by most 'vanias: if you do explore everything and obtain the best gear and fully leveled shards, the game becomes quite easy. But still it is fun to rush through those formerly terrifying enemies at ease while hunting that elusive last secret. So, if you are a 'vania fan or want to become one, get this game!

Dev Review

I'll keep it as short as possible. Dev promised support for Mac and Linux, changed their mind, and didn't offer refunds when requested (outright ignored messages). You've had a great launch, and the two communities you ditched are relatively small as to minimally change your bottom line. You could have done the right thing and refunded the game. I'm disappointed in the Dev for not working with backers who supported your work and for grossly misunderstanding the social contract aspect of kickstarter (yes, devs are to blame as much as backers here), and I'm disappointed in the gamers who turn a blind eye to this behavior.

It's quite good!

I have no complaints! :-O I know, it's weird...... The gameplay is solid and fun. The music is good. The graphics are pretty. The story is involved and the characters are unique. Anyway if you like to explore, get powered up, collect lots of stuff and kick ass then this is a fun game for you! The only thing I am hesitant about is the full price. I waited till it was on sale to buy it; it was worth the wait!

Very good plateformer for everyone

Review based on the PS version (don't think there's any difference) Game difficulty is quite flexible : so not too easy not too hard for a first playthrough Story : Is o, nothing really bad nor very good. Mechanics : excellent - one of the very good point of the game, even during the first play through the protagonist could be played like you want, Exploration : good - another good point (there is somewhat an incentive to fully each area and you should) Game replay : After finishing the game : you have the option to play some others characters unlocked during the 1st playthrough. It changes totally how to play the game. & extend the lifetime of the game. The game is better and more accessible than i expected . Hope this little review helps.

Beware of shady practices

This game was kickstarted under the promise of delivering to Windows/Mac/Linux. Four years later, and at the last minute, the studio mysteriously dropped Mac/Linux support with almost no explanation other than some hand-waving "middleware" excuse. Worse yet, they did not offer refunds to those that backed with the following explanation: "[...] refunds for Kickstarter projects come out of the pool of funds initially raised by backers. As per the KS terms of use, if an element of a project cannot be completed and there are funds remaining, a refund should be offered. In this instance, the initial funding for the project has been expended on development. Our current progress towards launch is due to additional funding from the publisher, 505 Games." Instead of mustering some courage to offer refunds to those that explicitly backed the game only for the Mac or Linux ports they brought a technicality that they 'spent all the backer money already'. This behavior of promising platform support only to remove this promise a few months before release is nothing short of shameful. Read the announcement in which the platform support drop is mentioned as an afterthought here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/iga/bloodstained-ritual-of-the-night/posts/2368304
