    The controls, artwork, and music are excellent. The voice acting is embarrassing. The gameplay is polished, though often bland and one-dimensional. The main challenge of the game is the environmental hazards; most of the enemies are mindless punching bags. A few of the projectile hit boxes are annoyingly disproportionate to the artwork.

The game is challenging but I didn't find it as hard as most of the reviews make it sound. There were a few parts that took me several minutes of retries to get past, but the checkpoints are numerous so there is rarely redundant trekking when you die. Maybe the latest update added more checkpoints?… Expand

    his game is not worth 9.99 by a long shot but it does not make it bad. for i am not a fan of the die 100,000,000 times and start over type games but this one its one of the most erking. by a pixel or a leg foot what ever if u mess up u die back to ur checkpoint (level 3 red crushers suck) the graphics for this game are acceptable for an indie game and controller support is aslo a nicehis game is not worth 9.99 by a long shot but it does not make it bad. for i am not a fan of the die 100,000,000 times and start over type games but this one its one of the most erking. by a pixel or a leg foot what ever if u mess up u die back to ur checkpoint (level 3 red crushers suck) the graphics for this game are acceptable for an indie game and controller support is aslo a nice touch. The storyling is very indepth you may not understand why a mission is where it is and what but if u listen to the story/intro itll make more sense so dont skip those. other half of that its truly a hardcore platformer and on my scale the game gets a 6/10 could be better but they kinda jumped ship… Expand

    Stumbled on Wolf on the Steam Halloween sale. Surprised the hell out of me. I wish other titles had the in air control jump that this game has. I beat the game in about 6 hours but have been straining my thumbs to get S rankings on all of the levels. I love the hidden upgrades. Work for it kids!

    Good: Excellent controls. HIDDEN UPGRADES!!!!
    Bad: Some bad VO, The Bosses were a little too easy.

    Dentro de los niveles habrá dos modos de juego impuestos, zonas en las que serás la mujer y zonas donde seras el lobo, con diferentes características y no sorpresivamente, en la fase de lobo serás mas fuerte.
    Al comienzo resulta bastante simple y vas enfrentando a criaturas de terror clásicas, incluso jefes como Dr. Jekyll y Dracula.
    A medida que transcurre el juego pareciera que le fueron sacando enemigos y te tendrás que enfocar en el diseño de cada nivel.
    Cada nivel cuenta con sus diferentes mecánicas y es básicamente lo mismo todo el rato, pero a cada checkpoint que vas llegando el nivel aumenta y aumenta y así. Hay momentos que de verdad frustraba y lo encontraba algo injusto (aunque más bien por mi testarudez de no cambiar la estrategia). En otros momentos me reía de mis muertes.
    Pero en general debo decir que cansa un poco, se me hizo bastante repetitivo y ya al final era como , ya vale vale, que termine pronto esto.
    Más que nada lo recomiendo cuando esté en oferta y te gusten mucho los juegos de plataformas, el juego no destaca mucho ni en diseño de personajes ni diseño de escenario ni en jugabiliad ni en musica, es bastante average en cada aspecto.
    No es malo pero es muy meeh.

    An old-fashioned action platform, sometimes difficult as hell, but if you like Ghosts ‘n Goblins’ style games... this is for you.

    Blood of the Werewolf is a good homage to the side-scrolling horror platformer games of yesteryear.

    The category of old school, “maso-core” platformers is simply so crowded with more satisfying overall packages that It’s hard to recommend investing in one that is likely to leap, werewolf like, out of your consciousness as soon as you’re done.
