Dec. 2025
One of a handful of well done metroidvanias that ended up getting underappreciated. This happened mainly because the game used to be poorly balanced. However, patches have since fixed the game's balancing issues. Also, some in the metroidvania have falsely branded this an igavania. It is not, that is a complete lie. This is Hollow Knight, but shorter and without any artificial difficulty such as cornifer, corpse runs, and other souls BS. If you're fedup of Hollow Knight clones but you still love a good handdrawn artstyle and an open world with plenty to explore and secrets within secrets than this is a great metroidvania to play. the biggest issues I witnessed were NPCs failing to properly handle situations where you complete a quest before the quest was given to you. This happened many times and left me with gaps regarding the in-game lore as a result. The other issue is that the jump just kind of sucks, especially in the beginning of the game. This issue gets better with time but its definitely going to be a bit of a learning curve at the start. I recommend this for all metroidvania fans.

The game has 72% on steam currently and let me tell you a better score never fit a game more perfectly. It's a generic metroidvania, with some heavy Hollow Knight inspiration. I enjoyed it. If you are looking for a decent metroidvania until a better one comes out, go for it. It's not expensive.

it's one of those games that start really annoying but gets better once you get the upgrades, cooldowns and animations are a bit long tho, 7/10 overall

This game isn’t bad at all. The art, music, and lore are solid, and there’s definitely some fun to be had. That said, it doesn’t bring anything new to the table. It feels like any other Hollow Knight clones—well-made, but super familiar. Combat is the weakest part. Enemies are damage sponges, making fights feel repetitive and slow. 7/10 Tip: Turn on turbo mode if you can. It makes combat more manageable and less of a chore.

Voidwrought is a visually striking, atmospheric action-adventure that, while intriguing on the surface, repeatedly stumbles over frustrating design choices and pacing issues that hold it back from greatness. Let’s start with travel. The fast travel system in this game is bafflingly slow — around six seconds per use — and considering the constant backtracking , this quickly becomes a noticeable drag on the experience. And backtrack you will, over and over, thanks to a map system that starts out promising by indicating your next objective but drops that feature entirely after the second boss. From there, it’s a guessing game where you mark countless spots on the map, hoping you'll remember which was which when you eventually get the required ability. Even when an NPC later marks a few locations for you, it feels more like a token gesture than meaningful guidance. Combat is another mixed bag. At the start, your damage output is pitiful. Enemies take five or more hits to kill , which is unacceptable for a first impression. While things improve as you find upgrades, combat hovers between "fine" and "annoying" — never quite reaching satisfying. The small melee range exacerbates this, especially when dealing with enemies that explode or are surrounded by poison gas, which forces the player to either trade hits or resort to spells. Boss fights suffer similarly; with how close you need to get to deal damage, some of their attacks feel nearly impossible to avoid, with little room for counterplay outside of sheer patience. Enemy variety is one of the game’s better points, and it’s appreciated because you’ll revisit areas constantly. Unfortunately, aberration encounters (mini-boss fights) are disappointing. Most of them throw two weak, poorly designed enemies at you instead of one memorable encounter. Unsurprisingly, their attack patterns desynchronize and you’re left playing the waiting game. Mechanically, the game can feel like it’s actively wasting your time. Elevators crawl at a glacial pace. The slither ability — one of the traversal upgrades — is slow and awkward. Even mundane things like opening certain doors involve pointless QTEs where you mash the attack button. It’s all filler — tedious padding that feels like it should’ve been caught in QA. The vault puzzles are easily one of the worst mechanics here. Puzzles in non-puzzle games often feel shoehorned in, and this is no exception. Unfortunately, these are tied to damage upgrades, so skipping them isn’t an option. It’s a frustrating, irrelevant hurdle between you and the improvements that make the combat tolerable. To its credit, Voidwrought looks fantastic and sounds even better. The art direction and music are genuinely standout — if you value a dark, moody atmosphere and enjoy uncovering lore, there’s something worthwhile here. Movement, too, improves later on once you collect a decent set of upgrades, and it feels good when you’re actually progressing through new content. I finished the game in 7.5 hours — and I probably thoroughly enjoyed about 4 of those. I left behind an entire ability and plenty of collectibles, but I felt I’d seen enough. It’s hard to recommend Voidwrought without caveats. If you come for the exploration, art, and audio, you’ll probably find those worthwhile. But if you’re hoping for a combat-driven experience that feels consistently rewarding and tight, this game misses the mark. The combat is there, but it’s merely serviceable, and sometimes even a chore. Final Verdict: A beautifully atmospheric game marred by clunky, unbalanced combat, needless filler mechanics, and irritating pacing issues.
