Tails of Iron

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A hand-drawn 2D action adventure where you play Redgi, a rat prince fighting back against the invading frogs. Combat demands precise blocking and dodging, while you upgrade gear and rebuild your kingdom.

God of War II

Melee combat with weapons or fists

Kratos wages a vengeful war against Olympus, allied with the Titans, in a brutal combo-driven hack-and-slash. Its colossal boss fights, like the Colossus of Rhodes, and its inventive environmental puzzles pushed the PS2 to its limits.

Momodora: Reverie Under the Moonlight

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A compact 2D pixel-art Metroidvania platformer where you play the priestess Kaho, fighting through a decaying kingdom with quick melee combos, dodge rolls and tough boss duels. It focuses on tight combat and a gloomy mood rather than heavy character building.

Dust: An Elysian Tail

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A hand-painted Metroidvania with fast, combo-heavy combat, where the amnesiac warrior Dust explores a storybook world alongside his talking sword and companion Fidget. Big combos against crowds of enemies and a charming story drive the experience.

Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A retro 8-bit action platformer in the spirit of classic Castlevania, letting you swap between four characters with distinct abilities at any time. Tough boss fights and multiple endings encourage replays.

Ghoulboy

Melee combat with weapons or fists

Ghoulboy is a 16-bit style retro platformer where you hack through dungeons, collect loot, dodge traps and fight bosses. It's a nostalgic blend of hack-and-slash action and light RPG elements.

Valdis Story: Abyssal City

Strong character progression

A 2D Metroidvania with fast, combo-driven combat and plenty of room for character customization. You explore a sprawling, dark world and tailor your abilities and playstyle extensively.
