3.75/5, medium fit. A game that can be summed up in one word: unrefined. Unrefined size, traversal, combat, music cause what could be a great game to be a good game. Still some good fun to be had. -C

4.5/5. Medium Fit. Weird game. It requires, patience and determination. You are going to need to read everything to try to solve its mysteries, you could sink many hours. Don't trust the gargoyles. -S

3/5. Low Fit. A Precision Platformer made by one developer, a little linear, it borrows some ideas from the Metroidvania genre. The movement is similar to a Super Mario game. It's like 3 hours long. S

4.5/5. High Fit. This is one of the best small sized Metroidvania games, it took me around 5 hours to complete, but I wasted an hour beating more monsters to complete 100%, it has too many monsters. S

4.5/5. High Fit. A little rough around the edges, but this is what a Metroid inspired game should strive to be. Rebel Transmute has a big map, and require heavy amounts of backtracking to advance. -S

4/5. Low Fit. Solid puzzle-platformer. The world of Promenade is technically interconnected, but it works similar to Mario 64, you need to collect pieces doing different tasks, to access a new area. S

3.5/5. Low Fit. A game with a great style, and an okay everything else. Gameplay never rises to its potential, leaving the whole experience a bit dissatisfying. An okay 5 hour experience. -C

3.5/5. Medium Fit. (15hs long) If you played Guacamelee! this game is built similarly. Arena fights, cool animations and a ton of gaming references. As of February 2024, the story feels incomplete. S

2.5/5. High Fit. Confusing map, bullet sponge enemies and annoying level design. TMM is easy thanks to the healing system, but it feels like a band-aid to reduce frustration. M+KB is recommended. S

3/5. Low Fit. (9hs long) Low amount of backtracking, you don't get more than one new area to explore after unlocking an upgrade. I still recommend it as a game, but the Metroidvania part is lacking. S
