What players think
The recurring themes across 129 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The Legend of Dark Witch is a fun Mega Man style action-platformer with an interesting twist on gameplay - namely the "Gradius" style upgrade bar at the bottom left of the screen.
In conclusion, this is a super fun, classic style run n gun with lovely visuals, responsive controls, and satisfying platforming.
Originally on Nintendo 3DS, a year later it got ported also on Steam, with keyboard and gamepad support.
The soundtrack further enhances this, offering energetic and catchy tracks that help maintain momentum and reinforce the game’s light, adventurous tone.
