Critic Reviews

By Greg WheelerWe've seen so many metroidvanias in recent years and Blade Chimera is certainly one that does a good job standing out in the pack. There's a great balance of platforming and combat, while the boss fights are easily the stand-out here. While it is a bit short in length, and the story is chock full of cliches and twists you'll see a mile off, the harmonized blend of combat, platforming and puzzling more than makes up for it.
IGN Korea
By Jieun KooWith its meticulous attention to detail and pixel graphics, the game features a world set in a futuristic, cyberpunk environment that promises expansive adventures and non-stop action around every corner. It's a reimagined take on metroidvania-style gameplay. The relatively short playtime might be a drawback, but the level design is so rich with details that you'll appreciate every moment of your journey. If you're a fan of the genre, this game won't disappoint. Even if you're generally into action games, it offers a decent challenge that's well worth your time and investment.
