A Mind-Bending Universe with Vibrant Colors, This Metroidvania Takes You Flying- Ultros, PC Review
13.02.2024 - 14:26 / gamesreviews.com
One of the most visually stimulating games of the year, Ultros delivers the most unique and unexpected twist on the Metroidvania genre. Developed by Hadoque and published by Kepler-Interactive, you’ll only experience this psychedelic, vibrant, narrative Metroidvania once, but will want to keep coming back to replay it again.
This game took me back to when I was a little girl and I had owned a kaleidoscope. You know when you’d stare into it for a long time, turning the tube to change the patterns, and just by turning it a few times, you would be enveloped into its charm and become mesmerized by its wondrous patterns and colors. If you owned one too, then you should understand me. Ultros became my kaleidoscope for the duration of my gameplay and I became enchanted by the spell it had put on me.

You begin the game on a vessel where you wake up from a dream, without your memories intact, surrounded by insects, terrain and statues.

The game entails an upgradable chart where you unlock various upgrades, such as a wall jump, a longer slide, or stronger attacks and a higher health bar. However, in order to do this, you must eat insects that give you delicious nutrition. The higher the quality, the more you upgrade your status bars and then unlock these abilities.
The main character grabs a sword in the beginning of the game that is used throughout the game to attack enemies and break through walls. It’s a very basic attack in the beginning, but with the upgradable chart, you will get new combos as you progress. These combos are extremely important for you to upgrade your abilities. When attacking an insect, depending on your attack pattern, the insect drops a change in nutritious value, which you can then utilize toward either upgrading or healing yourself.
Another interesting aspect of this game is that it mixes a little of rogue-lite elements. The time-loop restarts the character and places them back into the beginning of the game, however, you do lose all the
