Few tributes to gaming history pull off what Infernax has accomplished.
We can enjoy Infernax as a good neo-retro that takes us back to past times, but with a polished, fairer and more satisfying development and gameplay. But we are also facing an excellent adventure with its own specific weight that, with its very well managed combination of action, platforms and RPG, pleases anyone who has not had to live through those simple, although also more complicated, years of 8-bit systems. A job as measured as it is fun and enjoyable, whatever type of player you are.

What I loved the most was that Infernax did something that almost no retro-inspired game has done up to this point: it took me back. It made me appreciate and get excited over the exploration and discovery like no other game has in decades. It didn’t just look like a game from my childhood, it felt that way, and it drove me to keep going forward, to find out more, to see what I could do and even if I had the power to do it.
Infernax is a bloody good time. The developers did a great job of harnessing just about everything that made classic platforming adventures like Castlevania great, while sprinkling in some new features along the way. The formula was not quite perfect for me, but it was pretty close and those looking for a challenging new game in the genre owe it to themselves to give Infernax a look.
While not innovative, Infernax is substantially fun and thought-provoking. Among its honors, the possibility of following different paths, stylish visuals, intense battles and challenges with customizable difficulty stand out. Duke Aceldor's adventure proves to be a metroidvania capable of being both pleasant to experience and highly brutal and bloody.

Infernax is a medieval-style title that could remind us videogames like Zelda 2, Castlevania II or the more recent Shovel Knight. This time we will have to help a duke to rescue his beloved homeland from the invasion of hordes of demonic creatures, hooking us from the first minute with formulas and mechanics seen before that results into a fun game with a very affordable difficulty. A remarkable adventure and an almost mandatory acquisition that, without being extremely long, can take us about 8-10 hours to finish it. Its decision-making system will encourage us to replay it to see the different ways to unlock the different endings it has.

Here we have another great product from the independent scene. Highlighting its simple gameplay, a very well-made retro aesthetic and a nice incentive for new runs, Infernax is a great choice for those looking for a balance between fun and challenge within the platform action genre. Recommended and favorited in my 2022 games list.

Infernax keeps the things that worked from the nostalgic classics of yesteryear while changing what didn’t. I haven’t had this much fun with a game in a while. It’s just a perfect blend of difficulty and discovery from start to finish. It’s basic, sure, but sometimes shaving off the excess parts is how you polish something down to its core.
Berzerker Studio’s Infernax is a crimson-soaked trip down the darkest recesses of retro action platforming.
Infernax is quite the paradox. A quarter-stealing arcade game with sympathetic support for all players. Don't miss it.
I’m incredibly glad I got the opportunity to review Infernax. It’s another top notch title from Berzerk Studio, and it’s perfect for fans of platforming and old school challenge. Featuring multiple endings, tons of humor and epic bosses, it’s a game that should be on the radar of every hardcore gamer out there. If you’re a fan of platforming and love letters to games of the past, go buy this game. It’s that simple.
