What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Black Mist is a fun Metroidvania game with some interesting mechanics. I quite enjoy the black mist that the game gets its name from. It adds suspense to what would otherwise be a very bland game. The lives system is also quite nice. Instead of having a certain amount of lives and ammo, the two are combined. Shooting uses Energy, which can be regained from falling enemies. Energy also acts as a life force, so when you run out, it's game over. You lose Energy when hit by enemies too. It's clearly a game that was made with love, but without too much ambition. It's a nice time killer if you want something more in-depth than cookie clicker, and brings some new ideas to the genre. 7/108 found this helpful
I was looking at random steam games with 0-1 reviews and this one stood out as interesting. Honestly its not that bad. The visual style is decent and it controls fine. However, the darkness mechanic (central part of the game) just seems a little bit too punishing and obnoxious to work around. As far as I can tell there are also no checkpoints so it can be annoying to get back to where you were.
