Crypt Custodian Reviews
Crypt Custodian offers a delightful Metroidvania experience where players control Pluto, a cat exploring the Afterlife with a trusty broom. The game shines with its unique world design, fluid combat mechanics, and challenging dungeons. While it occasionally suffers from performance issues, its charming story and memorable characters make it a must-play for fans of the genre. With a variety of puzzles, upgrades, and collectibles, Crypt Custodian is a game that will keep players engaged for hours.
While Crypt Custodian might not be the most advanced Metroidvania game, and might not have the strongest story, the game brings extra flair and style from its cute graphics and fun side mission of cleaning up the palace, which helps set it apart and make it not just like any other Metroidvania game.
Crypt Custodian is a charming and cozy Metroidvania with fluid combat, an adorable cast of characters, and beautiful visuals.
Crypt Custodian stands out for its originality and the charisma of its characters, which, together with the cozy atmosphere and humor, provide an engaging and fun experience. The colorful world, fast pace, and varied challenges make exploration enjoyable, while the boss battles are memorable and well-crafted. However, the game is not without its flaws. The repetitiveness of certain mechanics and the lack of originality in some areas of the map affect the pace of the adventure, which could have been bolder in some aspects. Despite these limitations, Crypt Custodian offers an enjoyable experience and deserves to be explored, especially by those who enjoy light and creative metroidvanias.

Crypt Custodian is a delightful Metroidvania that drew me in with its quirky art style, smooth gameplay, and smart design choices. While yeah, a few of the fights could feel a bit straightforward, that hardly took away from the experience. Crypt Custodian does a fantastic job of crafting a world that’s both charming and a little spooky, making it a joy to get lost in.
A charming adventure filled with countless collectibles and frantic and exhilarating combat, leaving a lasting urge to hug your pets.
If you are after a polished experience that is full of charm then Crypt Custodian is definitely worth your time and money. There is so much care and passion jumping right off every scene that makes this metroidvania an easy recommendation, not only for old hands with the genre, but also players who’ve never tackled this beloved style of game.
