If it sounds like I’ve mostly been gushing about Odallus, that’s probably because I was utterly transfixed by the game. I could barely put it down, and whenever I got stuck, I just got more compelled to keep playing and playing til I found what I needed to progress. Odallus: The Dark Call is a fantastic game for any retro fans. It has great style, compelling and challenging combat and a dark and mysterious plot. The highest praise I can give it is that it takes inspiration from many classics, and yet remains true to its own vision. I clocked in at a little over six hours in my playthrough, and still need to find that last 4% to get the true ending. For $14.99, Odallus is a fantastic bargain. If you are a fan of Metroidvanias, retro games or just challenging yet fun experiences, then go buy it now! Just don’t stare too deeply into the fire…

Odallus: The Dark Call is a great adventure game that hearkens back to the 8-bit era. Combat is fun, and there's a good balance to the difficulty; bosses, save for the final one, can be defeated once you know their patterns. It isn't a very long game, but it still feels like it's an appropriate length, especially with each stage's secrets and hidden paths.

Odallus: The Dark Call incorporates many retro formulas beautifully while offering simple and authentic gameplay. It's great stuff.Odallus: The Dark Call gameplay video → Down to Hell Review Switch ★★☆☆☆ There are so many indie 2D action RPGs that try to offer visceral combat yet very few actually succeed so does Down to Hell? On the surface, Down to Hell seems like it could be a worthwhile game with its dark and moody aesthetic and promising gameplay but once you really start to dive in, it quickly becomes apparent that it's yet another disappointment.
