Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
96 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
My playthrough saw me fighting, platforming and adventuring across tightly designed areas and dungeons in a well-realized setting with very reasonable difficulty design and a steady and satisfying sense of character progression.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
73 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Infernax is a love letter to metroidvanias as well as player-controlled narrative.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
57 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay is excellent and the provision of two difficulty modes makes it approachable for pretty much anyone.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
53 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Most importantly, the game provides some of the best couch coop I've ever seen in such a title.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
33 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I was extremely taken aback to learn that the game actually contained multiple playable characters that each had distinct weapons and playstyles (such as a wizard character and even a futuristic character with a machine gun inspired by the run-and-gun genre).
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
28 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Infernax prides itself on pixel art visuals that manage to stay simplistic yet perfectly depict the gory and messed up nature of the world.
