As a sucker for pixel-art titles, Lost Ruins grabbed me right away, but the visual effects, including some incredible use of light and lighting, and the brisk pacing kept me invested in the Heroine’s journey from start to finish. There are some unique sidequests that had me questioning my decisions as I made my way from the sewers, to the catacombs, and the castle gardens, and even all my prior preparation didn’t stop the final area of the game from being a stout challenge. Lost Ruins’ focus on being careful and adaptable rather than headstrong and immutable makes it a soft but welcome d…
Metroidvanias aren't usually all that challenging yet Lost Ruins is here to toughen you up and it's quite a spectacle to behold as well.
Lost Ruins is a decent 2D action game. Although It's slow pace and lack of polish may be a hard sell for those looking for something more sophisticated.
The visuals are strong and most of the elements are competent, but this is a middle-of-the-road game that squanders its potential with some baffling decisions.
Lost Ruins is yet another retro-inspired 2D survival action game, this time featuring a girl who wakes up in a dungeon without her memories. With the help of a mysterious magician, Beatrice, we embark on a perilous mission exploring ruins, battling monsters, and facing the inevitable bosses in a Metroid-lite adventure.
Lost Ruins should be an OK game for fans of the genre, as it stands though if you play this game and are ok with its art style then as the zoomers would say, that’s sus. A fun gear system, rather nice graphics, and great music are massively let down by a paint by number, creepy as hell story. Technically I might have been interested in what this dev can do in the future, but God damn man. This game is gross.
