Metroidvania is a subgenre of video games focused on guided non-linearity and utility-gated exploration. The term, popularized by video game critic Jeremy Parish, is a portmanteau of Metroid and Castlevania.
This is a cloned community from Reddit. I intend to hand over mod support to the original mods should they choose to migrate to Lemmy.

I absolutely loved Haiku the Robot. It's a tad on the easier and shorter side but maybe that's because I've had so much time in the seat with other MV's. I think it's length is one of it's strengths. The world building is really strong and everything feels meaningfully designed with no filler.
I just finished Lone Fungus this morning. I don't want to spoil the experience by giving my take but am curious to hear your thoughts about it when you're done!
