Summary

Blasphemous is a punishing action-platformer that combines the fast-paced, skilled combat of a hack-n-slash game with a deep and evocative narrative core. Explore this nightmarish world of twisted religion and discover its many secrets hidden deep inside. Use devastating combos and brutal executions to smite the hordes of grotesque monsters and titanic bosses, who are all ready to rip your limbs off. Locate and equip relics, rosary beads and prayers that call on the powers of the heavens to aid you in your quest to break your eternal damnation.

This is absolutely packed to the brim with stupid f***ing horse**** (and a few technical issues on the Switch) but it was very addictive and fun when I didn't feel the need to pull out my hair. Whoever designed the last couple of crystal trials should be hired by government intelligence as a torturer expert and subsequently prosecuted for committing war crimes. Trying to 100% complete the game was also a nightmare that I gave up on.

Really mixed on this one, combat is satisfying but too slow and gets annoying later.. art style is amazing, bosses were annoying.

Levels were also not that good.
