After a lab accident, a scientist awakens in a mysterious, alien world. Is this a distant planet? The far future? Or a complex virtual-reality computer simulation? Plumb the recesses of a large, labyrinthine world in order to learn its secrets and uncover your role within it. Discover tons of weapons, items, and abilities, each with their own unique behaviors and usage. You’ll need your wits to find them all. Combat bizarre biomechanoid constructs, the deadly fallout of an ancient war, and the demons of your own psyche. And finally, break the game itself by using glitches to corrupt foes and solve puzzles in the environment. Life. Afterlife. Real. Virtual. Dream. Nightmare. It's a thin line. It's Axiom Verge.

By The FalconThe story kept me interested to a great extent and I am really curious to see what will happen in the sequel. While some players who are familiar with Metroidvania games will enjoy Axiom Verge, those who are not as familiar with the genre will have a difficult time enjoying the game.

By Jose Antonio Calvo CenicerosWe have an awesome game, a huge representative of the thriving metroidvania genre. Inspired by the Nintendo Metroid saga, Axiom Verge is also a great game with more personal touches from its unique author, Tomas Happ.
Geeks Under Grace
By Maurice PogueAxiom Verge is a metroidvania whose quality adjoins the games from which the genre germinated.
God is a Geek
By Mikhail MadnaniFrom the art style to the way it plays, this game is exactly what the screenshots and videos make it look like, but it's a very well made example. The combat is fast and, while not as precise as many will be used to, makes sense to add difficulty to the game.
Cubed3
By Renan FontesChallenging, creative, and endlessly endearing, Axiom Verge: Multiverse Edition is the best take on the Metroidvania genre in years.
