A Very Good Metroidvania
Blasphemous is an action-adventure/Metroidvania. The protagonist is the Penitent One whose goal is unknown until the epilogue, the world is generally a rather grim place filled with the undead and people enthusiastically engaging in self-harm. There are 3 endings. The combat is satisfying, including the ridiculously gory execution animations, which is encouraged by the game. The bosses and regular foes are diverse in appearance and behaviour, offering engaging and rewarding combat encounters. The location design is varied, with areas having environmental obstacles and hazards. The downside is the presence of instantly killing spike pits. The items providing traversal or non-combat abilities offer a significant benefit, though none of them is required to finish the game. Other aspects of the character upgrade system are health, mana (Fervour), the number and potency of the healing flasks, the attack power and moves, the spells (Prayers), and the number and setup of the passive abilities (Rosary Beads). All of them, except the attack moves which also require experience (Tears of Atonement) to unlock in addition to the shrines, are discovered during exploration and some might require additional items and NPCs. At no point the protagonist is locked into a poor build. Many mechanics are not explained, while affecting the experience, including scrolling through item descriptions (H and Y, hard-coded) and side quests. The saving system is forgiving - dying leads to the last shrine and a debuff that slightly decreases the experience gain and the maximum mana and can be removed. There are several save slots, but each playthrough auto-saves into a single one. The controls are mostly rebindable and comfortable, and 5-button mice are supported. Some of the controls are hard-coded and not listed anywhere. The visual style is inspired by religious art and readable, but the fonts are extremely hard to see or read. The soundtrack is fitting, all NPC lines are voiced.
