    The art is definitely beautiful, but it lacks in everything else. Nothing new in metroidvania, terrible mechanics and nonsense progression and enemies design. This game deserves a 5-6 score, leaving a 0 behind to actually hit all those overhyped bois leaving a 10. ugh.

    This game has some of the most pretentious art direction I've ever come across in a game.

    It offers nothing new to the 2D Souls-Borne nor the Metroidvania style game, on top of having some irredeemably terrible controls and platforming mechanics.

    It's Blasphemous that this is a game that exists.

    Blasphemous is a brilliant soulsvania. Even though some mechanics are not polished as they should, combats, artistic design and specially bosses make Blasphemous a well deserved game for every kind of players.

    Dark, bold and satisfying. Like all the best sins, Blasphemous is bloody good fun. [Issue#183, p.83]

    Challenging and forceful 2D action-adventure set within a straggly world – each and every of the many deaths will be worthwhile.
