Odallus is a NES inspired exploration game with lots of action. It brings elements of classics such as Ghosts’n Goblins, Demon’s Crest and Castlevania while subverting some modern twists.
Odallus: The Dark Call provides a satisfying retro experience comparable to other great nostalgic products, such as Shovel Knight or The Messenger. Although brief, it is very entertaining and another demonstration of Brazil's potential in game development.
Odallus: The Dark Call is not a new name for metroidvania fans, but now it's available for every common platform out there. Odallus is a fun, engaging and nostalgic title that every old school Castlevania fan should try. It may not have anything new, but it's a lovely cliché that worth your time.
Odallus: The Dark Call incorporates many retro formulas beautifully while offering simple and authentic gameplay. It's great stuff.
"Castlevania calls from the darkness."
Anyone who grew up loving Castlevania and Demon's Crest, keep this game on your wish list. Just don't pull the trigger until a patch is released.
