Our Review
As ingenious and captivating, as beautiful and murky, I have no doubt that, for times to come, the game will continue to be talked about. It performs its functions with genuine lucidity, thus crystallizing in a truly fantastic journey. It's downright difficult so, deep down, you're going to be on bad terms with Blasphemous, even when it seems to have no idea where it's going. Because, in the end, everything that has caused us to maintain a reticent treatment is, compared to good ideas, overshadowed.
