Dec. 2024

A fun metrovania. Does not have a ton of new ideas, but that is not what brings you to this game. Elderand plays a bit with religion, madness and a classic metrovania experience. Classic boss fights, secrets, a huge map and a ton of weapons is what makes this game fun and worth your time. Not a ton of re-play value, but this is not an expensive game, so, the trade-off is fair. Keep note that playing as a mage and assassin can be really challenging.

Elderand is a good game but short, not to hard if you have the right upgraded equipment, meaning there can be some farming sometimes. There is no platform sequence though, and the bosses are quite easy but there is this old school ambiance that may hook you till the end. An overall 7/10.

I really enjoyed this game. Its your basic side-scrolling 2d action platformer with rpg elements. You can build your character for hack/slash or magic or both (I'd recommend choosing one or the other so you don't waste your upgrade points). And you can have two separate character weapon/defense profiles, so one second you can fight with a sword/shield and have specific upgrades, then with a press of the button use your bow and have other specific upgrades - upgrades are in the form of two rings you can wear at any given time. I was very frustrated at first that there wasn't any sort of warping ability, but that is unlocked later in the game. You can save often. And something that is really cool is that you can clear your build and rebuild anytime you want (unlike in most games you have to spend a lot of money to buy that option maybe once or twice). Controls are not the best and some things are totally clunky, such as turning around while in the air or raising your shield after swinging your sword (enemies are faster than you and this often results in a hit before you can raise your shield)... enemies are medium variable (skins are reused some but you don't notice too much). The worst thing in the game is the bees..... THE BEEEEEEES!! I played it for a couple of weeks and beat it after accidentally triggering an invincibility glitch. Perfect timing for that because I was at the point that I needed to do a lot of grinding to save up money for some upgrades I wanted. If you upgrade properly from the get-go you can breeze through this. I would never pay $20 for this game, but on sale I got it for like $7 I think, and I feel it was worth it. But then again there are some REALLY good games for $7 with this same type of pixel-art and a better map system and controls, so I guess you gotta figure it out for yourself.

Sept. 2024

Perfectly competent. It doesn't do anything new in the genre, but what's there is done well enough. Combat is serviceable, if a bit basic. The level design is solid, movement abilities are all genre staples, graphics and music are pretty good. Not what I would recommend to get you into the genre, but if you've played all the big names in the metroidvania space and are looking for something new, this isn't a bad way to spend a dozen hours.

Aug. 2024

Completed the game and I have tried a Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence builds. Nothing compares to the dps of the dexterity build using bow, whip, daggers, nothing comes close to what I've tested so far. Elderand is a great game however it is short, very very short metroidvania. Great mechanics and feel and the content that is offered is enjoyable as well as the boss fights feeling challenging.
