TheMaster the occult powers of your automatic crossbow and fight for every second of survival against a relentless demonic horde! Hunt. Die. Hunt again. In the year 1139, the Second Council of the Lateran convened by Pope Innocent II has pronounced an anathema on the use of the crossbow. The council saw its unstoppable power as ungodly, demonic by nature. They were not entirely wrong. The Coven of Crossbow, an ancient order of hunters sworn to guard the balance between the forces of heaven and hell prevailed against all odds. In the year 1666, as fire and plague ravage London, the Coven is facing its greatest challenge yet. The Ancient Horror from Beyond makes its way towards our reality. In its wake, legions of nightmare creatures spawn in the darkness. The Bloodnight is upon us, let the hunt begin! Expand

    For $5, Crossbow: Bloodnight provides a nice, quick arcade experience for those who want something simple and don't have lots of time to spare. The fast-paced nature keeps things exciting, and while there are times that can feel like the game is using unfair tactics, the instantaneous replay system and focus on shooting keeps you glued to the screen, even for a short while. If you need a quick palate cleanser between bigger titles, this'll do in a pinch.

    Crossbow: Bloodnight is a fast and smooth arena shooter that doesn’t offer enough content and variety for long sessions, but works well in short, intense ones. Switch seems like a great platform for it but unfortunately neither the Pro Controller nor the Joy-Cons offer the precision that the unforgiving gameplay requires. [04/2021, p.38]

I can imagine a full game where you start with a basic crossbow and gradually gain more functions and abilities as you progress through the story. I hope the game does well enough for the developers to turn this idea into something more fleshed out. If you are into fast paced shooters, you should pick this up as soon as possible!"

    This game is surprisingly fun and draws me back in for another run repeatedly each time I open it. It's definitely more of a pick-up-and-playThis game is surprisingly fun and draws me back in for another run repeatedly each time I open it. It's definitely more of a pick-up-and-play experience rather than a marathon gaming session. The game is polished and great...but there's only the one arena that you ever play in. In fact, it's just repeated runs at the same enemies spawning in the same order each time, while it definitely is fun, it can wear thin after a while. That said, if you pick this up on sale, you won't regret it! Tons of fun to be had with this arena shooter. Just wish there was more content in it, otherwise my score would be an 8 or a 9. Expand
