A solid metroidvania style game with plenty to explore. The game has a fascinating lore and story to keep you engaged. It might not be game of the year, but it's a great sleeper hit.

Nice metroidvania game, unique style and not soooo hard as hollow knight but still enjoyable.

Gutes Spiel. Deutsche Übersetzung hat einige Fehler.

Perfectly flawed.

YES YES YES!!!!! THIS IS AWESOME.... STAY and read.

To begin with, this game offers a few surprises:
1- I dont know why developers who use Unity make sh*t games, but in my experience THIS is one of the ONLY MAYBE 6 Unity games worth a damn, and it is GREAT
2- most times, when you see the "female protagonist" tag, you know what to expect... lecturing, girlbossing... all the trademarks of a developer whose hair is blue and smells like crap. NOT THE CASE HERE!!
3- recently, theres been an epidemic of BAD (trash) controls... not here, you can use a controller, you can use a keyboard. You can customize the bkey bindings but even the default ones work just fine.

Now, for the game on its own:
The setting is your father died, something weird happens, and you go the afterlife to find him/answers. All along the way you will be fighting interesting enemies (which never become too repetitive), interesting bosses (with their lore if you care to look for it), alternative interesting bosses and the enviroment.

A few OTHER good points

1- it IS (unlike many with the same tag) a TRUE metroidvania, complete with meaningful backtracking, secrets, several endings and an arsenal of skills and weapons to face your enemies anyway you like and SOME collectibles relevant to both your prowess, AND the story.
2- The artstyle is great, interesting and important to the world and the story, the musical themes complement the situation and the maps to perfection
3- It has difficulty settings for every taste and the platformer is fun, with only two possible rage-quit inducing short sections which make you feel good once conquered (both are wonderfully executed).


BUY. THIS. GAME... you wont regret it.

The game has a weird and quirky art style that I enjoyed and the gameplay starts slow and gets better as you play. A solid 7/10 experience if you can bypass the jank.

A "Not-too-bad" Metroidvania, felt a little bland especially at earlier stages but grew better towards the end. I would say it is somewhat "difficult" on Normal mode, as you probably need to die a few rounds to learn those bosses movesets, many attacks wind-up time is rather short and it hurts A TON... Some bosses have super bull attack patterns with 0 wind-up at their second phase as well... 🤷

Characters are cute and the better endings were pretty heartwarming to see by the way.

If you are a fan of Hollow Knight, this is a game i cannot recommend enough. I love the music, the artwork, the gameplay, the story, just everything about this was an immersive experience. There are two parts that do detract a little bit and one boss feels a bit overtuned, but honestly once you get past those sections the fun keeps giving. it is an absolutely wonderful game and a great story

8Doors: Arum's Afterlife Adventure is a hand-drawn, cute, story rich, emotional and adventure game with multiple endings where you play as Arum who goes to purgatory in search of her father's soul.
