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.

Brings what grabs you about Well Dweller: jumping and platforming, lots to discover as well as a fantasy setting.

A fast, polished 2D Metroidvania platformer starring the warrior Sargon in a mythical Persian world. Acrobatic parry-driven combat, time-manipulating powers and clever platforming challenges make for a fluid, stylish adventure.

Ori and the Blind Forest

Lavish presentation

A gorgeous hand-painted Metroidvania platformer with tight, demanding movement, tense escape sequences and a heartfelt tale of loss and hope. Its sweeping orchestral score makes the forest of Nibel unforgettable.

Castlevania: Symphony of the Night

Fantasy setting

The genre-defining Metroidvania sends the vampire Alucard through a sprawling gothic castle packed with secrets, loot and RPG leveling. Gorgeous sprite work and a legendary soundtrack complete the package, and the inverted castle remains one of gaming's most famous twists.

Dandara

Distinctive, stylised art style

A metroidvania where Dandara doesn't walk but leaps instantly from surface to surface, turning gravity and space into a puzzle of movement. Surreal pixel-art worlds reward exploration and demand precise leaping through tricky traversal and combat.

Catmaze

Fantasy setting

A Metroidvania rooted in Slavic myth, where you play the sorceress Alesta exploring gloomy forests in search of the road to the land of the dead. Folklore and platforming action take center stage.

Sundered

Dark, serious atmosphere

A hand-drawn Metroidvania with procedurally shifting caverns where you fight swarms and towering bosses as Eshe. Corrupted relics make you stronger but cost you your humanity.

Constance

Lavish presentation

A hand-drawn 2D Metroidvania where you play an artist wielding a paintbrush, fighting and platforming through a vivid yet crumbling inner world shaped by her mental struggles. Exploration and an emotional undertone are at the heart of it.
