  • Grim Guardians Demon Purge is a Castlevania inspired spin-off of Gal Gun but can this do enough to attract both audiences? Let's find out!
    When a demon's castle darkens the land, two sisters challenge its halls. Together they can break the curse.
    In order to save their school after it turns into a massive demonic castle, two "Demon Hunter" sisters slash and shoot their way through this 2D action adventure.
    Players can swap between control of both characters on the fly, each with entirely different skillsets. Proceed through the castle while confronting the demonic bosses that await deep within.
    Each boss yields new weapons to wield, allowing for more varied exploration and opening up new routes.
    ■Swap out on the fly as you traverse through the demonic castle!
    Take control of both the tag-team Kamizono siblings. Make the most of long-distance focused Shinobu and close-range brawler Maya Kamizono as you make your way through the castle.
    Each sibling has a range of unique sub-weapons, giving you a wealth of options to switch your strategy up whenever the time calls for it. Don’t hesitate to make use of them so long as you have Weapon Points in stock!
    In the event that one of the siblings falls in battle, they can be resuscitated freely with "Sister Rescue"-provided you can make it back to where they fell.
    ■Defeat bosses to obtain new sub-weapons, opening up a whole new layer of exploration!
    Defeating bosses will yield new sub-weapons, providing the siblings with exciting new abilities.
    These sub-weapons also open up new routes and means of exploration in the castles.
    ■Enjoy the story your way with "Pure" or "Refined" voice tracks!
    Grim Guardians' story focuses on two main aspects: the mystery behind the school's transformation, and the whereabouts of the other students.
    Enjoy the original experience in "Pure" mode with all of the original Japanese voices for story mode, or choose “Refined” for English voice acting focused on the action, tailored for fans of the genre.
    ■Adjust the difficulty to your playing needs with the unique Style system!
    A total of 3 different styles-"Casual", "Veteran" and "Legend"-are available for selection, allowing players to adjust the difficulty to their needs. This can be changed at any time after beginning the game with no drawbacks.
    What's more, co-op with both Shinobu and Maya will be possible should two controllers be available. It's possible to jump-in at any time during the game, so don't hesitate to invite friends along on your journey to conquer this mysterious demonic castle.

      I did that. Bought the collectors edition and the digital. It comes out tomorrow for me. Not sure where your at. The collectors edition sold out unfortunately. Limited Run Games usually handles Inticreates north American releases and i bet they'll have a collectors edition as well.

    It's an Inti game. For me, they are almost always a no-brainer purchase these days. I know I'm going to enjoy them. And this one is like the... SNES version of Curse of the Moon... with the Gal*Gun characters. Interesting choice. Would not have minded an actual SNES-style CotM. Still, a solid game.
    Together with PLAYISM's metroidvania games (Touhou Luna Nights and Record of Lodoss War: Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth), my go to when I just gotta scratch that 2D exploration off my system.
    At least, while I wait for Inti to give us the next Gunvolt game. Main series or otherwise (I so want that Mytyl spin-off, I laughed so hard at that "joke" ending).

    This looks so good, can’t wait to get my copy. But is it a metroidvania? It’s linear, isn’t it?

    • @sonicking91784
      @sonicking91784 Год назад +1

      It's... Kinda both? It is linear and level based, but as you get more sub weapons you can go back to previous levels and explore and get permanent power ups.

    • @thorinhannahs4614
      @thorinhannahs4614 Год назад +1

      I'd compare it to the Megaman X or Megaman Zero series. Using gear or weapons you acquire through your playthrough to go back to levels and get more gear and abilities.

    This looks pretty tits to me even if it's not in the running for any awards for originality. It looks likely to scratch that "slightly modernized Symphony of the Night clone" itch that Record of Lodoss War did last year. Kinda bummed to hear that there are levels as opposed to one sprawling interconnected map, but it doesn't sound like a deal breaker for me.
    Thank you for reviewing this one! I've had it on my wishlist for a couple of months now, anticipating its release ever since I randomly encountered a gameplay trailer on RUclips.
