A bit generic but LOTS of replayable fun
This game is actually a lot of fun. The gameplay is just right and very well executed, the programmer really knows what he is doing. If you played the PS1/GBA Castlevanias you'll feel right at home because the way your character moves and the combat feel exactly the same. Many people claim those Casltevanias are quite easy, but if you play Chasm on HARD, you' ll find it more challenging, though never unfair. Another typical problem with metroidvanias is replayability: once you memorize the map, it's a bit less fun. Chasm offers a way around that by randomizing the map, but not in a procedurally generated generic world. In this case, every room seems manually crafted, and then it randomly rearranges some rooms each time you start a new game. There are also two more 'casual' random modes: arcade and race. Combat is really good and every enemy provides a challenge. Each of them has a distinct pattern so you have to learn them and find out what is the best strategy to kill each one. Many enemies seem impossible until you figure out a way to beat them. The only thing I'm not a fan is the asthetics of the game. It looks and sounds really cool, but it seems a bit generic. The main character is just a random soldier with a childish look and no sense of development during the game. The graphics are beautiful but many areas just seem quite generic, like your typical mines or crypts (keep and garden look quite good though). In a Castlevania game each room is different than the next, but in this game every room in the same area looks similar. Some enemies look really menacing but there are also many generic things like blobs, plants or insects. Music provides a great atmosphere and is kinda soothing, but there are no memorable tunes. Chasm may not be too immersive but it's actually a great game and super fun if you don't need a lot of immersion to enjoy your games. If there's a sequel or spiritual successor with that in mind, it should be an absolute classic.
