SwitchRPG
By Evan BeeIf you're a fan of the genre, this game offers its own unique twists as well as all of the features that you love. Don't sleep on this "action platformer without jumping," because it's an ARPG with so much more.
Destructoid
By Peter GlagowskiThe fusion of Dark Souls with metroidvania is something that can certainly lead to a great title. Unworthy falls just a bit short. Not much can be done about the level design, but a few key tweaks to item management and difficulty balancing could lead to this becoming a hidden gem. If nothing else, it scratches the itch for more Souls that From has left.
TechRaptor
By Joe AllenThrough a mixture of punishing, satisfying combat, rewarding exploration and rich visual design, Unworthy manages to overcome its minor flaws (and the stern glare of its parent genres) to deliver a deep, memorable experience for fans of hardcore action RPGs.
