Odallus is a NES inspired exploration game with lots of action. It brings elements of classics such as Ghosts’n Goblins, Demon’s Crest and Castlevania while subverting some modern twists.
About the story
The old Gods have forsaken our people. In despair, we have fallen prey of those thirsty for power, human or otherwise. Villages were destroyed, children were slain and brother fought against brother. Living things that do not lust for power were reduced to a mere pursuit for survival. Haggis was once a soldier that has long abandoned the battlefield and now must take the sword once again to protect his loved ones.

Critic Reviews
PSX Brasil
By Francisco MaiaOdallus: The Dark Call provides a satisfying retro experience comparable to other great nostalgic products, such as Shovel Knight or The Messenger. Although brief, it is very entertaining and another demonstration of Brazil's potential in game development.
Gamefa
By Aria MoghadamOdallus: The Dark Call is not a new name for metroidvania fans, but now it's available for every common platform out there. Odallus is a fun, engaging and nostalgic title that every old school Castlevania fan should try. It may not have anything new, but it's a lovely cliché that worth your time.

By Evan NorrisAnyone who grew up loving Castlevania and Demon's Crest, keep this game on your wish list. Just don't pull the trigger until a patch is released.
