Maximo: Ghosts to Glory

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A tough 3D action platformer set in the Ghosts'n Goblins universe: as the knight Maximo you hack through hordes of undead with sword and shield, with your armor breaking off as you take hits. A charming, macabre style and steep difficulty define it.

Ys: The Oath in Felghana

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A fast-paced action RPG where you play Adol, dashing through Felghana with fluid combat, dodging, and huge boss fights. The legendary rock soundtrack and tight combat make it a genre classic.

Momodora III

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A classic 2D pixel-art action platformer where you play the priestess Momo through mostly linear levels, collecting items and uncovering secrets. It relies on quick dodging and tough boss fights, and you don't need to know the earlier games.

Bayonetta

Challenging difficulty

A supremely stylish character action game where the witch Bayonetta battles hordes of angels using Witch Time, precise dodges and absurdly over-the-top finishers. Deep combo mechanics, colossal bosses and plenty of tongue-in-cheek charm.

Athena

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A classic SNK arcade platformer where Princess Athena fights through mythology-inspired worlds, picking up weapons and armor along the way.

Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero

Challenging difficulty

A side-scrolling spin-off of Mortal Kombat that blends brawling with platforming. You play Sub-Zero in a prequel to the first tournament, though clunky controls make it quite frustrating.

MediEvil

Melee combat with weapons or fists

You play as the skeletal knight Sir Daniel Fortesque, resurrected to stop the sorcerer Zarok and save Gallowmere. This remake of the 1998 classic blends spooky gothic fantasy, dark humor and lively hack-and-slash combat into a charming adventure.
