Great Metroidvania style game with beautifully dark graphics and art and the music is great too! The gameplay is not very complicated and can get repetitive at times but it is definitely worth a play through based on atmosphere and story alone. Plus the bonuses with this release were a nice touch too although mostly digital.

One of the best 2d Souls like and Metroidvania blends you can get on any system or PC.
The setting and themes might mean a lot more if you are christian and know your stuff.
But this is hands down one of the best of the genera, this and dead cells are must haves.

The reviews for this game were strong and I have to say, Blasphemous really held up to the praise. It is a metroidvania style game where you csn stumble on some incredibly challenging or impossible areas and have to find a way to get stronger to progress. The lore is quite deep and when played in original Spanish the intended language really takes you on a journey story wise. Fair warning, it is a Spanish title, so the religious themes are quite dark and exploratory. Super enjoyable and twisted. I bought it digitally after making the physical purchase because it is thaf good.

Unique, gross, hard to look at... Blasphemous

Incredible game, 2D platformer that falls into the 'Metroidvania' & 'Darksouls' category, which is really not fair. This game shines on its own. The art is unique, gross, hard to look at... blasphemous.
From spanish developing team, you can clearly see the inspirations they took from the catholic church and other topics mainly from Spain. Recommended, specially the physical edition. It'll run out of printing and you'll regret not having it!

A Better Purchase than the Limited Run Release

When it comes to Metroidvanias, Blasphemous deliveries. The classic 16 bit art style makes the game feel like it was taken straight from the Super Nintendo. The gameplay is smooth, and the controls are tight.
This is the full release of the game, with all of the DLC included. While not as "Collectible" as the Limited Run Games release, this version is affordable and complete. Definitely one to add to your collection.

Blasphemous has a lot going for it. There is a vast world to explore and a large amount of collectables to obtain. The game might seem quiet difficult at first, but once you obtain more upgrades and get used to the combat, it becomes more than manageable.

A great game if you enjoy platforming with fluid combat such as Shovel Knight and Hollow Knight. Blasphemous has great art direction as well; drawing inspiration from the darker artworks/sculptures of Spanish Christianity. The game does a great job of not dropping biblical names or direct references to any specific religion. The overall theme of penance does come up, however the game is an absolute treat to play and beat. You can make this game take 6 hours, 14 hours, or 30+ hours, definitely a must buy and worth the money spent. Get excited for Blasphemous 2 as well because it's coming.

Fun game but at times seems a little tough. Graphics are great in a 16bit style and the story is great as well. Simple to play with minimal buttons and keeps you drawn in.
