Oct. 2025
I have been playing video games for a very long time (way too long) and I now have a new game in my all time favourites list. For me this is the #1 Metroidvania. What a great time I had getting 100% in this game. The difficulty, pacing, graphics, sound and game play are absolutely fantastic. The animation of the main character and the enemies was great. It is a shame it had to end. It is sad a wider audience did not see this game. I can't wait to play Madruga Works' next game! (If you need help testing.) p.s. Just buy it! Don't wait for a sale.

July 2025
As I write this, The Möbius Machine has a recent rating of "Mixed" on Steam, and that feels unfair. It's a competently made Metroid-like with some of the best art direction/graphics I've seen in a 2.5D platformer, enjoyable combat and satisfying exploration. I wasn't even bothered for 2/3 of my playthrough by the reuse of enemies and level design as it offered up opportunities for the game to either prepare me for a familiar challenge or play with my expectations. There's a weirdly, pleasantly chill vibe to exploring this hostile alien world that I found refreshing after the punishing aggression of a game like Zexion. That said, Zexion is ultimately a better game both because it has higher highs (e.g., far more engaging bosses and set pieces) and better overall pacing. By the final third of Möbius, I was less forgiving of the samey-ness of it; once I'd beaten the final boss, I suspected I'd missed the true ending, but traversal through the nooks and crannies of the map had gotten so mind-numbing, with upgrades increasingly so lackluster and fast travel just limited enough to be annoying, that I uninstalled it and moved on. That said, this is a *good* game. A very good game. I thoroughly enjoyed the vast majority of my playthrough and could easily recommend it to anyone. Though it had me pining for some late-game Blade Chimera-esque fast travel at the end, it's worth Metroidvania fans' time, especially those who favor Metroid-likes specifically.

This was easily one of the best games I have played in a really long time. The game really never drops in quality. Gameplay was amazing, with an insane amount of build diversity built around the weapons and stats, and every character has a particular use that makes them a viable party member. I used pretty much everyone throughout different parts of the game. Tons of bonus areas/content/challenges toward the end that I am still digging through. This feels like an older JRPG in this regard, but doesn't feel mandatory, which is really nice. The music was phenomenal but that was obvious from the first 12 hours I played. The story was incredible, and without spoiling anything, the ending offers something that games have done before, but possibly not executed this well in all of the games I have played. Characters are amazing, and while not all get an equal spotlight, I have NEVER thought this to solely be an issue in the past, and I can safely say it isn't in this game. It is unrealistic to this story, and I think it makes a lot more sense if you beat the game. I am pretty speechless. I tend to rate games after beating them, and I haven't given a new game a 10 in nearly 7 years, until this one came out.

It's a very solid Metroidvania with a pretty huge and open map, lots of secrets to find and quite a lot of potential sequence breakers. Great visuals and fluid control, interesting enemies and well designed bosses. Also props for including some unique abilities that act as substitutes for more traditional ones like double jump or air dash. The level design is really well crafted around these and makes backtracking and exploration feel satisfying.

March 2025
Pros: Pretty good metroivania with a heavy focus on exploration. Had fun clearing out the map. Shortcuts you can unlock can be satisfying. Interesting visual design for the environment and enemies. Just about the right game length. Enjoyed it with M+KB, which is quite rare. And a nice change of pace. Cons: Combat against regular enemies is unfortunately tedious even when heavily upgraded. Basic blaster does the job 95% of the time so I rarely had any reason to swap from it. The map has lots of very satisfying shortcuts, but the sparsity of fast travel points can make backtracking more tedious than it should be. Two of the later areas look basically identical. Final area was very short and the ending felt very abrupt.
