ABOUT The Metroidvania Review

THE GREAT METROIDVANIA RENAISSANCE

Recently there's been a boom in the number of Metroidvania Style games being developed and released - A Metroidvania Renaissance if you will.

As an avid fan of these kinds of games, I've made it my goal to play all of the ones available on Steam and review them. I hope to provide a springboard for other fans of this genre to find and try new games.

Welcome Metroidvania fans. Let's enjoy eachother's company as we talk about this genre that has become so rich with great experiences.

"Metroidvania games, ranging from perfect matches to the genre progenitors Super Metroid and Symphony of the Night, to wild and crazy interpretations of the genre's concepts."
