Amazing Princess Sarah

Amazing Princess Sarah is a decent metroidvania game. The story of the game is ok as you are trying to rescue your father from Lilith's and her hellish army. Each level has their own distinct look and feels, but very barren as it would be great to have secret areas to discover. The sound tract of APS is good to listing to and my personal favorite is the Dark Dungeon ost. The enemy types are decent as they add variety, but later the levels you'll just face color swap versions of monsters you face from earlier levels as they have more health and damage. The boss battles feel lackluster as they are easy to deal to combat with minimal strategy. The combat it bland as you just do a single slash but feels nice getting chained kills when you throw objects and enemies at a crowed of them. I wished there was more to it like having a skill tree or unlocking new abilities as you level up as the higher the level you are the more HP you have and damage delt to enemies. I would like to see more cutscene in the game to show how Sarah ends up in each level. I really like the seven new game mode + APS has to offer. Some new game modes are harder than others while adding a twist to ensure one playthrough isn’t the same. Though wish there more added to each new game plus memorable. Overall I give this game a solid 5/10 game where more could have been done to rank higher but enjoyed my time playing it.
