    I really liked the game BUT -- the ending is way too hard. At level 18 and without the "Ultimate" gear - I couldn't get past the last guy. The "save point" is too far away and reloading/walking back got really boring fast. I didn't finish the game because the final boss was too hard. Yes, I am not very good which is why I picked "Normal" but I tried nearly an hour to finish him and gave upI really liked the game BUT -- the ending is way too hard.

    I loved the Genesis/Mega Drive art style and gave it a punt on sale.
    The music and graphics were great. I also enjoyed the enemies and world it offered.
    The upgrades and new abilities were great to earn. The dudgeons and puzzles has a good challenge and interesting to solve. I did not like no check points near the boss after you die. The bosses were bullet sponges being too hard    I loved the Genesis/Mega Drive art style and gave it a punt on sale.

    I did not like no check points near the boss after you die. The bosses were bullet sponges being too hard compared to the rest of the game.
    I really did not like the map and fast travel coming after 1/2 through the game. Because of this, expect to get lost at times.    … Expand

    Inspired by the Wonder Boy franchise, Aggelos features a very enjoyable experience and a modern gameplay but truly lacks of creativity.

    Aggelos is a great retro-style and Metroidvania game, with a good soundtrack that will delight the most veteran fans of the genre. In spite of being a short title, it is challenging, and the exploration will be essential if we want to discover all its secrets.

    Aggelos it's a time travel, an adventure in the vein of those that we enjoyed in the 16-bit era, An oversaturated genre even in Switch (pixel art, platforming and 2D metroidvania action) with a style of gameplay adapted to modern tastes. It's not an innovative title, but it's fun, pretty and its right pace helps to get hooked till the end.
