    Vernal Edge is an action packed Metroidvania set in a world that resembles a lot the one of Laputa - Castle in the Sky by Haiyao Miyazaki and with the excellent combat system of Hollow Knight.

    Behind her looks of a wild girl with a bad mouth and her thirst for blind vengeance, Vernal is a prime example of finesse and grace once we have a controller in our hands. With a minimum of practice and if you put a little effort into it, you can embody a twirling Dante in 2D wearing petticoats (they are made of steel, though). Hello Penguin Team brilliantly succeeds in offering us a not so “old-fashioned” metroidvania, both rich and complete, while having the luxury of taunting all these modern games over-assisting the player. In short, Vernal Edge takes the best of tradition and modernity to offer us a resolutely solitary pleasure, but absolutely not a guilty one.
