Organized religion can sometimes take on a creepy vibe, as evidenced by the chilling nun movie series. But if you think that's intense, wait until you dive into Blasphemous by The Game Kitchen. This hardcore 2D platformer, now available on Android, immerses you in a moody gothic atmosphere, complete with bloody side-scrolling combat and a grueling difficulty level that will test your mettle.
In Blasphemous, you step into the boots of The Penitent One, an armored warrior on a mission to liberate the island of Cvstodia from the clutches of a sinister curse known as The Miracle. As you battle through monsters and abominations drawn from a dark blend of twisted religion and Spanish folklore, your goal is to free the people from this curse—even if it means dying repeatedly in the process.
The Android version of Blasphemous comes with a fully redesigned UI and tactile controls optimized for mobile play. For those who prefer more traditional controls, the game also supports Bluetooth gamepads, making precise platforming a breeze. And the best part? This mobile port includes all the DLCs, giving you the complete Blasphemous experience right out of the gate.
Hail Mary full of GraceIf you're an iOS user, you'll need to wait a bit longer to get your hands on Blasphemous, as it's slated for release in late February 2025. But with the acclaim it has received from both players and critics, the wait will undoubtedly be worth it.
Personally, I've found mobile platformers to be a mixed bag. The touchscreen isn't always the best fit for precise platforming, as I learned the hard way with the iconic Metroidvania, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. However, if you're up for the challenge, why not explore some of the top 25 best platformers for Android and iOS that we've handpicked for you to try?
