In a time were games were mostly tackling realism with pee filters, El shaddai definitely stands out as one of the most visual unique experiences out back in 2011 , 10 years after we finally got this rather unique experience on PC. Describing el shaddai isn't an easy task, but think like someone took an real existent mythological story and made into a video game and there you have it. It tells us a story of Enoch, a scribe sent by god to defeat the angels on earth, and while as a game it's not doing anything special, i think the way visuals are presented and how the story is told makes it the whole experience worthwhile. it plays very similar to the original devil may cry with some platforming into the mix. So if this sounds great to you, It's not a super long game, and it's definitely a unique journey. Give it a shot!

Lemme tell you a tale. It took place 360,000... no, 14,000 years ago. Well, to me, it seems like only yesterday. To you, it could be tomorrow. It's the story of a man, Known by 72 different names. Hmm, what shall I call him... When I first met him, his name was... ...Enoch. And, even then, he wouldn't let anyone tell him what to do. Not even me. But... He was a pretty good guy. (on a serious note this is the only non-Megaten game that feels disturbingly close to a Megaten game and I heavily recommend it to any weird obscure game enthusiasts out there)

From the perspective of a guy who loves DMC and similar "spectacle fighter" games, this leaves a lot to be desired. From the perspective of a Christian familiar with extra-canonical content that inspired this game, it's pretty cool to see games made that rely so heavily on stuff that's obscure even to the average Christian. It is FAR from accurate, however. A lion's share of the characters are tangentially related to the actual figures from scripture at best, but this is fiction. Enoch only speaks enough to avoid the silent protagonist title, but he still looks cool enough to hang out with guys like Dante or Shadow in your edgy, homemade desktop wallpaper. Other figures are just straight up cast in roles contrary to their actual scriptural positions. Again, it's fiction, so this is far from a deal breaker. I only see it worth pointing out if you, like me 13 years ago, expected a game where you played as Enoch to be made by Judeo-Christians. As an actual art piece, God knows there's few games that rival this. Time hasn't been kind to El Shaddai when it comes to the general plot and gameplay. In a world where you can run the second coming of DMC on the same machine that you're playing El Shaddai, you're not gonna fire this up just for gameplay. If you're looking for something vaguely inspired by early Judeo-Christian mysticism, you can also play the best SMT game (Nocturne) and the most recent mainline SMT on the same hardware you're running El Shaddai. But this thing is as close to a legal acid trip as you're going to get. From personal experience, I do not recommend playing this game with a headache, because it will get you to throw up. El Shaddai's use of color, form, and absolutely batcrap insane effects is a treat for the eyes (when you're sober and not sick). The soundtrack is also stellar, and you're really not going to get that combination in any other competently made games these days. In short, I give this game an "obscure biblical figure running through a nightcore album cover in Levi jeans" out of 10. If that interests you, pick it up. If not, grab it on sale.
