- HookedGamers7.0Blasphemous walks that tightest of ropes between goddamnit-I-hate-this-game frustration and oh-my-god-I’m-so-proud-of-myself bliss we all love. When you’re running low on health you’ll have to decide whether to push on or return to a shrine to freshen up, because all the enemies you just beat will be back when you turn around. That means you may well end up worse off if you make a mistake.
- WorthPlaying7.3If you're into challenging action platformer games, Blasphemous is as good as the next. It isn't perfect or revolutionary, but it doesn't have to be. Its lore and visual direction are disturbingly beautiful and craft an interesting and distinct world. Great boss fights and an enjoyable and challenging combat system ensures that fans of the genre will have enough to sink their teeth into and enjoy.
- 3rd-strike.com9.5Blasphemous really is an unholy amount of fun to get into. With so much freedom to explore and great art it is an enthralling game that quickly becomes addictive. Between the blood splattering everywhere and the general sense of dread, the story manages to build up and anybody who likes Metroidvania type games with a solid narrative should give this game a chance.
- Darkstation8.0Blasphemous finds success by adhering to staples of the genre and executing them well. Coupled with its strong art style and design, it’s a great option for anyone seeking another Metroidvania fix. It doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but it proudly shows off its visual personality.
- ZTGD7.5Blasphemous is an absolutely stunning game everyone should see in motion. I loved it for the first 10 or so hours, but then it just continues to stay the course throughout. With a little more variety this could have been a true classic. Still this developer has some talent and I would love a follow-up with a little more flavor and a lot less bulk. On a purely visual scale this game has few equals and for that I can recommend it easily, just be aware that not much changes as far as game play goes throughout the entire journey.
- TechRaptor7.0Blasphemous is a beautifully haunting game. The mechanics are solid but they bring very little new to the table. At the same time, the world is interesting and the theme is pretty intriguing. If you’re into Metroidvania and the prospect of exploring a world of profanity, blasphemy, and violence fascinates you, Blasphemous will be up your alley.

Blasphemous
Dark Souls de plataforma. Não sei se foi intenção dos devs, mas achei bem inspirado nos Souls, o que pra mim é um ponto positivo. Fora isso, ele tem uma narrativa e gameplay bem particular que vale a pena ser experimentada.[ ](https://twitter.com/caiovitas/status/1756212377702268939/photo/1)
Buen juegazo, merece más apoyo.
También jueguen al 2, está buenísimo.
I like these metroidvania souls like games and blasphemous no less. It is a 2d platformer where you'll get all the deja vu feeling of dark souls. The level design is just awesome and the designers have put a nice effort in it. Definitely you must play this game if you like challenge and love the souls like genre.
Enjoyable, but unfortunately the variety and gameplay of "Blasphemous" don't live up to the promise of its grotesque and compelling art style. The game is macabre and ghastly and gorgeous, but also bland. A fun side-scrolling diversion but not the best the genre has to offer. Compliments to the creator of the lore, disgusting relics, and visual set pieces.

Brilliant game. Challenging boss fights, well designed map and rooms, lots of interesting areas to explore, lovely art style, diverse enemy types and overall just a gripping atmosphere throughout. Some of the religious lingo gets a bit to obtuse at times, making quests a bit hard to understand, but it doesn't really take away from the overall experience of the game. One of the very best metroidvanias out there.
