Maybe the best metroidvania I've ever played. Great art direction, platforming, beautiful world design and likeable characters. The game isnt insanely difficult but quite challenging in places, feels a bit long maybe for a MV at around 12 hours but they really went all out in terms of puzzles, super fun combos and overall just very smooth to play. you really cant ask for more when it comes to these kinds of games. The dev team did an amazing job.

Originally played through this game on Epic (free game giveaway) and enjoyed it so much that I had to buy it on Steam to support the devs. FIST has to be one of the most overlooked and slept on metroidvanias out there. If you're a fan of metroidvanias this one is a must-play.

This is a pretty good metroidvania. After playing both Ori games, I wanted to play something with similar arrangements combat And this game sure delivers. I think developers of FIST towards Ori during development, cause of the mechanics are similar. As far the skills I developed from playing Ori are applicable in this game If you played Ori and want to play something similar, I highly reccomend to play this one.

A quality metroidvania, but not without some noticeable blemishes. Pros: - vast, diverse and beautiful setting you can easily find yourself be immersed in - a more fighting-game, combo-oriented fighting style than in other metroidvanias I've played - the story is OK+ - I wish the setting was developed further however - an easy to use map that does its job properly (not a given in recent metroidvanias for whatever reason) - varied, fun bossfights (special shoutout to last three boss fights) - no bugs of any kind - the game runs smoothly and without any issues on my PC without any dips in framerate or whatever - perfect price for its content and length - no overused, somewhat outdated nowadays mechanics like dropping your coins on death or whatever Cons: - the focus on comboing hits diminishes the moment you obtain the whip which more or less breaks the game and makes the game sans a few bossfights a breeze - underwater levels - I've seen other reviews complain about them as well and I think the general issue is the fact that your moveset is much more limited underwater, there aren't many enemies and the platforming with limited, sluggish movement can get pretty difficult at times. Once you die you respawn way back and have to begin again. The underwater levels are also very vast for some reason - Ancient Complex - kudos for trying out something else for this location but I haven't enjoyed it at all All in all it's a solid metroidvania, whose staggering amount of content reminds me of another quality Chinese metroidvania, Afterimage. Perfect for its price, no need to wait for a sale in my opinion. Patiently waiting for a sequel

It's a decent metroidvania. Reminded me of Shadow complex a little. It's got some issues, but I rather enjoyed it. Those Master Wu combos can go straight to the garbage though.
