The brutal hack-and-slash platformer, Blasphemous, has made its way to Android devices, following its successful launch on PC and consoles in September 2019. Developed by the Spanish studio The Game Kitchen, this game has garnered a massive following for its grim and beautifully twisted Metroidvania gameplay.
What Does Blasphemous Bring to Android?
Blasphemous transports you into a world shrouded in darkness, where every step feels like a battle against fate. The Android version of the game comes packed with all the DLCs available from day one, offering a complete experience. Whether you prefer using a gamepad or the touch controls, the choice is yours.
In Blasphemous, you embody The Penitent One, a solitary warrior ensnared in an endless cycle of death and rebirth, striving to break free from the curse known as The Miracle. You navigate Cvstodia, a gothic realm steeped in a distorted version of religion and suffering, filled with grotesque landscapes and hidden secrets. The world of Cvstodia is layered with mysteries waiting to be uncovered, continuously surprising players with new discoveries.
The narrative is as complex as the gameplay, featuring tormented souls each with their own stories of sorrow and redemption. Interactions with these characters can lead to assistance or moral dilemmas, enhancing the depth of the game. The dark lore of Blasphemous is captivating and offers multiple endings based on the choices you make throughout your journey.
The Haunting Melodies and Atmospheric Tunes Are a Perfect Match for the Game’s Eerie, Oppressive Vibe
Blasphemous draws inspiration from history, art, and religion, intricately weaving them into its narrative. The game's soundtrack complements its eerie and oppressive atmosphere perfectly, while the combat and boss battles remain intense and engaging.
The combat system revolves around your weapon, the Mea Culpa sword, and the execution animations stand out with their pixel-perfect, gore-soaked art. To enhance your gameplay, you can equip relics, rosary beads, and prayers to customize your build according to your playstyle.
The Game Kitchen is actively working on improving the Android version by introducing touch control customization and a full-screen option to eliminate those annoying black borders. With these enhancements on the horizon, the mobile port of Blasphemous promises a robust gaming experience. Be sure to explore this gem on the Google Play Store.
