Nine Sols isn’t just one of my favorite games of 2024—it has secured a spot in my all-time top ten. As a fan of both Metroidvanias and Soulslikes, I’ve played countless entries in these genres, but few have captured my attention and challenged me as much as this game. With a gripping story, memorable characters, breathtaking art, and some of the best 2D combat I’ve played, Nine Sols is an absolute must-play. If you love deep, challenging gameplay, rewarding exploration, and narrative-driven action, do not sleep on this game. Red Candle Games has created something truly special, and I can’t wait to see what they do next.
