Fading Echo

Afterimage

Strong character progression

A hand-drawn 2D Metroidvania where you explore the ruins of a fallen metropolis as Renee, fight towering bosses, and build up your skills and gear. Its RPG depth and large, interconnected map are the main draws.

Darksiders II

Fantasy setting

Playing as Death of the Four Horsemen, you carve through sprawling fantasy realms rendered in Joe Madureira's bold comic-book style. Fluid hack-and-slash combat, loot and skill trees blend with Zelda-like dungeons full of climbing and switch puzzles.

Apotheon

Distinctive, stylised art style

A 2D action adventure presented as Greek black-figure vase painting, where you play Nikandreia fighting through ancient mythology and taking powers from the gods. Varied weapons, shield blocking and thrown arms keep combat fresh.

Well Dweller

Fantasy setting

A dark fairy-tale metroidvania where you play a tiny bird with a matchstick, crossing a wretched kingdom to burn the wicked queen. Expect quirky characters, exploration and platforming action. The game is new and little known to me, so this rating relies mostly on the description.
