The fight with him had multiple phases and you'd need to utilise your party to its full potential. The final showdown against the Black Knight was at hand. This so far is my game of the year and that's saying something considering I've managed to play some pretty unique titles. You also have a lot of replayability with the alternate game modes giving you a different way to experience the game. The story is well told with the character interactions, which gives them distinct personalities. There's plenty of secrets to discover, which gives you a good sense of progression. The backgrounds deserve a special mention since they managed to achieve some striking images with the 8-bit aesthetic. The gameplay is responsive, the level design is superb and there's a huge variety of enemies and environments. He can't talk to Epimetheus for upgrades and I didn't see a way for him to recover health, so going through the tower with him will be a challenge.Īstalon Tears of the Earth is a fantastic game and an easy recommendation for any Metroidvania fan. This unlocked a new mode where you go through the tower with the Black Knight, who has a high jump, can throw energy balls at the cost of some HP and his sword can damage every enemy and destroy blocks. The ending was slightly altered by seeing Algus triumphantly return with the rest of the crew. This time around Algus did use the homunculus as his replacement to evade capture by Epimetheus, who despite being tricked found some respect for Algus' craftiness. Now having all the items and completing the map, I faced the final boss once more. The secret developer area is not part of the map completion.
