    Chronicles of the Wolf is a damn good time and it’s exactly what you’d expect. I’ve repeated that phrase a few times now, but only because it’s so objectively true. Like tribute bands and movie tropes, we need a touch of the old school to remind us how far we’ve come and how much fun we’ve had along the way. If you know what you’re doing, you can breeze through in 5 hours, but it’s just difficult enough to provide a decent length on a first play through, owing to some pretty tricky boss fights that just about avoid being annoying.

    A faithful gothic homage to classic Castlevania with strong atmosphere, solid bosses, and rewarding exploration, but hindered by clunky early movement, tedious backtracking, and the lack of map markers that make progression occasionally frustrating.

    Chronicles of the Wolf had the potential to be something substantial since the devs have shown their skills through the soundtrack and capturing the SNES era sprite work, but it decided to just hold into being something very classic and too familiar for it to standout.
