About the Game

Step into the lush, perilous rainforest of the Horace Islands as Tania, a bionic warrior forged by Dr. Herveus. Tasked with uncovering the fate of a missing Investigation team, you’ll confront a world transformed—where the enigmatic Karpas energy warps nature into fierce, hostile mutants.

Master a fluid combat system defined by precision and style. Chain together devastating combos across a spectrum of speeds, parry incoming attacks to seize the upper hand, and use the Quick Rise ability to re-engage after a fall. Dash into enemies mid-strike to trigger a time-slowing burst—granting damage immunity and turning the tide in chaotic battles.

Harness the elusive power of Aether—gathered from the world around you—to shape your path. Strengthen Tania’s abilities, unlock transformative skills, enhance your weaponry, or trade for rare items. Every choice deepens your connection to this living, breathing world.

Exploration is seamless—intuitive map design minimizes backtracking, keeping you immersed in the action. Struggling in battle? Adapt the challenge with adjustable difficulty and supportive buffs. And through every trial, Tania remains a beacon of warmth and encouragement—because her story is yours to live.

Oh, and yes—you can absolutely pet the cats. /ᐠ。ꞈ。ᐟ

Awaken: Astral Blade is a Chinese Metroidvania that draws heavy inspiration from Nier: Automata in both character design and plot. While it doesn’t reach the same narrative heights or existential depth as its muse, it

Solid metroidvania style game. Enemy difficulty weirdly spikes in the mid game and then reduces down to 'trivial' in the late game. There is a LOT of GRIME-esque precision platforming, but there is an option to make

The combat is the highlight here, nothing special, nothing flashy but when you are overpowered is kind of fun. The map is terrible imo, i found it very confusing. Some of the jumps you have to make to get some items are
