Critic Reviews for Voidwrought

Despite taking more than a small share of inspiration from Hollow Knight, and being a fairly by-the-book adventure, Voidwrought is a competent metroidvania with a fluid, dynamic gameplay and an excellent soundtrack. Definitely worth considering if you like the genre… and also if you need something to make the wait for Silksong slightly more bearable.

Voidwrought is fast, fun, and fluid. Despite some late-game balancing issues, it still makes for an entertaining Metroidvania experience. The soundtrack alone is worth the price of admission.

Voidwrought is a simple but fun Metroidvania with rich and amazing lore. Even though the game lacks a certain thread of story to follow and becomes unbalanced halfway through the game, its magical soundtracks and strangely beautiful art style are effective enough to give it a try.

It’s definitely not wrong to make a Metrovania with a higher focus on exploration and platforming, but Voidwrought hurts itself by having very simple levels and barely any platforming challenges. This lack of commitment to a premise makes the game feel safe and mostly forgettable, as it doesn’t bring anything new to the overcrowded Metrovania genre.

A Metroidvania with personality that deserves the attention of genre fans, the game has everything a Metroidvania should, while also adding its unique dark theme and an interesting level of difficulty for those who enjoy a challenge

Voidwrought is an immersive and well-produced metroidvania experience. The world is visually striking, with detailed areas and an intriguing dark atmosphere, despite its obtuse narrative. Exploration shines with non-linear progression, good diversity of situations and interesting navigation abilities. Combat, while satisfying and varied, is lacking in balance, becoming easier as you progress. Even with its lack of innovation in some aspects, Voidwrought delivers an engaging adventure that captivates with its mysterious universe.

Voidwrought offers a compelling experience for fans of the genre.  And is one of those games where the first hour is rough but it then blossoms into a satisfying worthwhile experience.
