    It's not even that hard of a game once you figure out each fight.

    Except for the final boss. The final boss is pretty much impossible even if you know what's coming.

    Biggest waste of $25. I've platinumed Dark souls 1, 2, 3, Bloodborne, and Sekiro. I don't mind difficult games. This, however, is nothing more than a monotonous exercise in frustration. Do not buy.

    To all aspiring developers : Videogames are meant to be fun and Valfaris is as fun as trying to chew rocks.Most people DON'T like hard games and just want to relax,Valfaris is anything but relaxing.Besides that,beautiful aesthetic/tight controls/stellar soundtrack.It's a shame a good game fails because it's annoyingly hard.4/10 just for the difficulty.

    O jogo até que é legal, é bem difícil e isso faz parte do jogo, porém tem muitas partes realmente chata de jogar, e como não tem como alterar a dificuldade no meio do gameplay, fica insuportável de jogar. Infelizmente não é um jogo que recomendo. Ele é mais frustante que divertido. Melhor investir o tempo em algum outro jogo.

    To just say ‘this game is fun’ would be the easy way out. It’s a brutal challenge with hellish visuals, doom-laden soundtrack and blood-soaked anarchy. If you like your retro shooter platformers to look, act and feel like they belong in the metal section of your local record store, then Valfaris is one hell of a good time.

    Valfaris is a superb action-platformer filled with violence, a killer soundtrack, and some gorgeously grotesque pixel art.

    Any old-school player who tries Valfaris will fall in love with this title, which exudes love from its developers in every corner. This is a real work of art in visual, sound and gameplay terms that, despite its simple approach, is a challenge worth trying.
