The brutal hack-and-slash platformer, Blasphemous, has now made its way to Android devices. Initially launched in September 2019 for PC and consoles, this game has become a massive hit. Developed by the Spanish studio The Game Kitchen, Blasphemous is a grim and beautifully twisted Metroidvania that promises an immersive experience on mobile.
What Does Blasphemous Bring to Android?
Blasphemous invites players into a world where darkness reigns supreme, and every step feels like a battle against fate. One of the standout features of Blasphemous on Android is the inclusion of all DLCs right from launch day, enhancing the experience further. Players can enjoy the game using either a gamepad or the responsive touch controls.
In Blasphemous, you assume the role of The Penitent One, a solitary warrior ensnared in a relentless cycle of death and rebirth. Your mission is to break free from the curse known as The Miracle. Set against the backdrop of Cvstodia, a gothic world filled with grotesque landscapes and hidden secrets, your journey is one of exploration and mystery. Cvstodia is teeming with tormented souls, each with their own tales of sorrow and redemption, some of whom will aid you while others challenge your choices. The game's dark and intricate lore rewards players with multiple endings based on the decisions made throughout the journey.
The Haunting Melodies and Atmospheric Tunes Are a Perfect Match for the Game’s Eerie, Oppressive Vibe
Blasphemous draws inspiration from history, art, and religion, weaving these elements into its haunting narrative. The game's soundtrack complements its eerie and oppressive atmosphere, while the combat and boss battles are both intense and engaging. The centerpiece of the combat system is your weapon, the Mea Culpa sword, renowned for its pixel-perfect, gore-soaked execution animations. Players can enhance their gameplay by equipping relics, rosary beads, and prayers, allowing for a customizable build.
The Game Kitchen is actively working on improving the touch control customization for Blasphemous on Android, as well as adding a full-screen option to eliminate the black borders. These upcoming changes promise to make this mobile port even more enjoyable. If you're intrigued, you can find Blasphemous on the Google Play Store.
