    Infernax is the result of combining Castlevania, Ninja Gaiden, and Bloodborne. But, even when this sounds like fun, it gets boring quickly because of its dated mechanics.

    While I played through on the classic difficult, I found the game to lack significant difficulty, instead relying on trying to grind you down through long tedious sections with backtracking. Where single mistakes can set you back multiple minutes of progress.

    On the positive side, several of the bosses were excellently designed. So it isn't all bad. If I had to give the developer advice, I would say to increase the difficulty but make progress more sustained.

For the entire game, he died less times than while passing these platforms. Full Review »

    This game is a perfect nod towards Castlevania and a blast to play! I loved my time with it
