About the game

LA-MULANA is an “Archaeological Ruin Exploration Action Game,” bringing the classic appeal of adventure with the punishing difficulty of retro-inspired gaming. Search inside ancient ruins, seeking out the “Secret Treasure of Life” – which sleeps in the sprawling ruins of “LA-MULANA” and is said to be the beginning of all civilization. Unfortunately, priceless artifacts very rarely give themselves up easily.

    This is one of the most pure and true-to-its vision games ive ever played, even when it makes itself worse by being so. I love it all the more because of this!

    TL:DR, A good game, but a hard sell to most people at the same time. It has a bit of a Reputation® and it is mostly deserved. I think anyone who likes the genre should give it a try, but also be prepared to throw in the towel halfway. Overall a tough metroidvania with some great level/world design, really nice attention to detail and a commitment to riddles and puzzles, but somewhat brought down by frustrating…
