Fantastic!

This bite-sized metroidvania has it all: fantastic graphics, a genuinely catchy soundtrack, and, most importantly, tricky-but-fair platforming that makes getting good fun. I have just three complaints: the knockback when you get hit is annoying, and the period of invincibility you get when you take damage is a fraction of a second too short. Finally, the minimap could do a better job of showing you where you are in the game. It shows you which room you’re in, but not your exact position in that room. Buy this if you like easily digestible platformers that don’t bog you down with endless new mechanics and complicated controls. Buy this if you like gorgeous sprite art. Buy this to support a dev who’s nailed the art of short and sweet games.

Great Metroidvania

Going in I was just expecting a simple retro platformer, but as I played, the pixel art, animations, gameplay loop, level designs, boss battles, hidden rooms, clever design, all had me playing from start to finish and going for a full playthrough including the full ending. It never belabored on any one thing and the overall charm and uniqueness was quite refreshing. Huge kudos to the developer on a masterpiece of a game! A must buy :)

Perfect bite-sized metroidvania

I really enjoyed playing this remake. I played the original years ago, and the gameplay of the remake is still fun and fresh. The bosses can sometimes be frustrating, but as with any game like this it boils down to learning patterns then exploiting them. Definitely worth the $ for a few hours of fun! :)

Fantastic game, short but worth every penny

If you’re into retro dungeon platformers, this is the right game for you. The exploration and combat are lots of fun, and you can tell great care was put into every detail. The controls are precise, allowing for some ambitious moves if you want to make them. I definitely recommend this game!

110% Completion Rate

Today I finished all GameCenter achievements for it, this does not include the updated version of the Daredevil achievement, did it with the true ending. This game is the most furfilling adventure plataformer, just piece of art I have ever played on a mobile device. Adventure Islands has nailed it with this Remake. Super Dangerous Dungeons, Tiny Dangerous Dungeons, and now I would say, the most thought out, colorful, and broad ranging game game of the saga. The game was worth every penny. Thank you for this gem Adventure Islands.

Good Level Design and Fun Boss Fights

It’s exactly what it claims to be. This is a cheap, mini Metroidvania that you can play in a weekend. The levels are challenging but fun, and the boss fights are surprisingly great. If this looks fun to you, give it a try!

Great to play

The game is really fun, the bosses are difficult and gives that rush, it would be fun to play with a controller but over all a really challenging experience

Beautiful REMAKE!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Beautiful graphics, smooth gameplay, SO MUCH MORE CONTENT! This was an absolute JOY to play and was way longer then expected! Loved the original and now I love the remake even more! WELL DONE!!!

If you're a long-time mobile gamer, you might remember a delightful retro-styled Metroidvania that was released around 10 years ago called...
