Many games try to incorporate features of their influences to create something unique. So Veteran Notes follows the same path as his ancestors, he combines the tracks to shape a refreshing trip. By selecting the greatest aspects that preceded it, Sternum has perfectly merged conventions Metroidvania kind in an incredible adventure that stands alongside pioneers.

Angered by the deceit of its designated leaders, condemning the king of darkness and queen of light an eternal war, resulting in agony and hatred age. Now you must find a way to end the battle to bring unity to a divided world. Although the premise is fairly typical, the presentation is beautiful. The stained-glass mosaics add character to the narrative sequences that are polarized by the glorious animated segments that encapsulate epic nature of the story.
While Metroidvanias shares common points such as exploration, acquisition of new capabilities and backward, many games in the genre differ in terms of basic gameplay. Some focus on heavy platform mechanisms as ORI and the Blind Forest, others include Souls type systems, for example, Knight Hollow, however, many remain closer to the source material, focusing on gameplay based combat. In a bold move, Veteran Notes tries to mix every aspect of this great adventure.
Each section is diverse and challenges you in many ways. Some areas will require you to remove methodically various enemies, reading their attacks and counter accordingly. Enemies vary, and you will learn how each moves to avoid punishment.

You can use it to teleport to the environment, attacking creatures and solve simple puzzles. Defeating the beasts, they expel the blood that you can collect and used to fill a health orb, which becomes essential in your quest.
The exciting platform segments oppose the fight. With a high level of challenge, you need to use a range of capabilities for cross-sections like mazes. Dashing and jumping wall, you will need to demonstrate expertise in achieving specific aerial feats. The dangers are strewn peaks and toxic surfaces instantly removing a point of life. For this reason, you should look to the future before continuing. Fortunately, you can easily monitor your environment by moving the camera with your stick to create an action plan.
As combat and platform are both difficult, it is essential that the protagonist control well. Fortunately, the weight and movement are sublime, meaning that failure is only due to the player. Death is inevitable, you will identify defects in your approach and will correct for success during your successive attempts. At this point, you will get your mind revisiting the point of your demise. Although a system included in many games, it seems a bit pointless in Veteran Notes.

Although EU'peasant the enormous skill tree allows you to customize the capabilities of the king of darkness to make sure it suits your style of play. In addition to this you can also buy upgrades in the store with a second currency you also win by killing the dam on enemies.
The sandbox game has a nice sense of progression. You can drive the 16 interconnected areas and skills that you will deepen the universe. Each area is sumptuous. Various soaked atmosphere, biomes are distinct feel. Amazing views to the haunting cemeteries, each environment maintains an ethereal air that permeates everything.

Capturing the mythical atmosphere that impregnates Veteran NCIS is sensational soundtrack. Delicate piano solos resonate, renting loneliness and grief of the protagonist. These sections compete with the intense symphonies that accompany boss fights. The ferocity of these fighting is brilliantly anchored in the gigantic partition that overwhelms the scenes.
Although performance is irreproachable, I have encountered some hard accidents. When I finished tests to gain new capabilities, the collection of the orb caused the closing of the game and sent me back to the dashboard. During my second attempt, it worked as planned. Unfortunately, the same thing happened during the following two tests. Although I guess it will be corrected, it's always worth noting.
Veteran NCIS is a breathtaking metroidvania that integrates the many assets of the genre into a beautiful experience. Combining a systematic fight and a precise platform, the game is varied and stimulating. The magnificent works of art make every single zone, making it a really memorable experience.
