About
■A Demonic Metroidvania Adventure
"Gal Guardians: Servants of the Dark" is a true metroidvania sequel to the classic-style action game "Gal Guardians: Demon Purge." Two new characters, Kirika and Masha, take the stage with unique playstyles, and you'll need to switch between the two at will in order to fully explore the vast areas and take down enemies and bosses.
■Search the vast Demon Realm to revive your allies
Search for hidden passages, trap doors, and solve puzzles throughout the Demon Realm to collect the scattered bones of the Demon Lord Maxim.
Each sub-weapon and ability you unlock will open up new routes and strategies, requiring every tool at your disposal to fully explore.
As you find and revive Maxim's vassals, they will help strengthen your home base, the Demon Lord's castle. Rebuilding it will provide bonus support features to assist your journey.
Fill out the colorful cast of vassals and see their personalities shine in story cutscenes that play throughout the game.
■Swap between sisters in Demonic action gameplay
Older sister Kirika attacks from a distance with demonic guns while her younger sister Masha covers close ranges with her whip.
They can spend demonic energy to attack with different sub-weapons as well, but it is crucial to switch between the two as the situation changes.
Should one of the sisters be defeated, you can bring her back to life by returning to her location and using "Sister Rescue" to revive her.
■Collect mountains of items
Enemies and treasure chests will earn you consumable items, sub-weapons, and passive enhancements called "Demon Relics" as random drops.
You'll use these items to unlock new special abilities for the sisters and access new areas of the map.
Sub-weapons can be combined and crafted to customize their power, making use of items you wouldn't otherwise need.
Gather, craft, and enhance to power up on your journey.
■Choose the play "Style" that's right for you
Servants of the Dark inherits the "Style" system of its predecessor, allowing you choose between "Casual," "Veteran," and "Legend."
You can switch Styles at any time, and all of the game's content is available no matter what you choose.
Feel free to choose the one that best fits the experience you want on any given day, for a chill time or a challenging endeavor.

overall a fun metroidvania, but the game lack bosses, the ost is repetitive; zones don't have their own theme, and also is a bit easy even with the max difficulty that it offers before beating the game once. It just feels that inti said "lets gonna make a 500km² map that's fun to explore and forget everything else" which is weird coming from these devs, it's still worth playing and the voice acting is amusing and flawless
It's a begrudging yes. The map is far too sprawling even with all the movement options you eventually get and there are some parts that are very obtuse to figure out in order to progress unless you mark the hell out of the map in order to remember where to go back to later. Dialogue is good and even on easy you are in for a tough battle sometimes.
It's a fine metroidvania. Nothing special, but far from being bad. Great characters and fun character interactions. One of the few times I actually wish there was more dialogue between characters and NPCs. Lots of opportunity for customization with the sub weapons and a pretty big map to explore.
Great fun! Recommend to anybody who likes metroidvanias like Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night, It can be a bit rough, but in my opinion that's part of the charm of these kinds of games, the world does not hold your hand, expects you to mess around and enjoy doing so. I understand that it's not for everyone, but the fact that this game sits at "Mixed" reviews is just criminal.
Tedious game with obnoxious exploration. Did not finish.
有前作彩蛋、有美少女、能冲刺跳的类银,但毫无疑问是美术在线而游戏性下线的一作,在游玩时间超过5小时新鲜感过去之后会觉得你这地图(和传送设计)纯折磨人,本来寻思着这一作你都完善自机性能了结果净完善性能去了?让我十连跳了你怎么不干脆直接让我飞起来算了女仆的翅膀是纯摆设?后期跑图几乎能纯靠魔王冲和十段跳只让我看见了一位绝望的地图设计。有一说一,虽然前作少女魔净不能冲刺不能空冲没办法哐哐多段跳,但毫无疑问还是少女魔净更好玩更有游戏性。
相比一代难度降低了不少,但地图探索依旧折磨,好在解锁魔王冲刺后舒坦不少。
Fun game but this PC version has framerate issues. All of Inti Creates' other games run smooth on my PC but this game for some reason doesn't... sigh
7.5/10 近年玩过的比较偏恶魔城的作品,难度一般。全成就大概20h左右?我时长偏长是偶尔推累了挂着看剧。 以下评论可能含有轻微剧透,介意请关闭(因为完全没试过联机功能,所以这里不做评价)。 优点: 1、精良的美术插图,玛夏可爱捏。 2、全配音,配得很贴。 3、全收集难度不高,看其他评论能了解到之前本作在指引和收集统计方面做得挺差的,现在还可以。 4、这是我玩过的第一个角色能十段跳的游戏,对的,十段,感觉这世界大可去得。 见仁见智: 下面说的这两点我个人认为是功大于过,但想了想这个说法有点受个人喜好影响,且这两点在评论区也常被诟病,就放于此处。 1、能力解锁形式绑定升级。我是很喜欢这个的,本作解锁角色能力的形式是收集x个道具→把这些道具交付给特定npc来提升自己的等级→等级到达一定阶段会提升自己的数值,并解锁一些探索能力。而这个道具的获取方式是每张地图限定获取总数,并分配到怪物掉落与宝箱中,在穿戴加掉率的装备后(游戏内有相应词条的道具,非常容易获取),体感掉落率非常高。所以与传统那些打完一个大章节解锁二段跳、大冲之类的游戏不同,本作是能够通过这些提前获取某些能力,让探图更舒服(但由于地图开放会跟着主线走,实际上也就比一般游戏提前半个图左右),而这个成长曲线也会让我整个探索过程非常平滑。 2、武器存在随机词条。有的人觉得这是混入了肉鸽要素,其实我感觉更像是RPG的养成系统?没肉鸽花样那么多,养成深度也很一般。本作的武器是4个词条孔,除了一些自带固有词条的武器,其他都是随机分配,但本作又同时具有词条移植功能,可以把任意武器的词条转移到其他武器上(按序转,比如我想把一个4词条武器转到一个有3个词条空着的武器上,就只会取前者的前三个词条。而如果是词条堆叠升级则不受顺序影响,只要有重复词条就能堆叠),而武器掉率不低,商店也会刷出一些比较好用的词条,在这个条件下我觉得是很容易做出来自己想要的指定4词条武器的,肝度也不高。而某些组合确实能完全优化游戏体验,让中后期的战斗与探索变成轮椅级别,这一点也很不错。但也不是没有负面影响,在中期探索的时候,拥有会心+5的冰火手雷能极大改善探图体验,但会心这个词条我直到中期探索过半才实现自由。虽然没有这个也能正常探索,但处理某些机制会相当麻烦。 缺点: 1、资源获取量较低。商店卖的东西很贵,但直到中期开始才能大量获取金币,且传送要钱。 2、存档点与传送点分布不算均匀,经常为了某个点要走365里路,让前中期跑图体验比较难受。且城内的传送很神秘,你可以从王城传送到王座,但没法从王座传送到王城,只能王座→纹章→王城。 3、灾难般的背包管理,在找到回收npc之前你只能一件一件丢弃你的废弃装备,而本作的掉率经常会让你打着打着就背包已满,而考虑到词条的存在,每个武器都可能会有意想不到的价值,所以经常跑着跑着开始清包,这一点在中期才会改善。 4、图标区分不明显导致在选择特定装备时会很费事,虽然小图标右上角会有一个已装备的头像标识,但放在列表中还是不太明显。 5、战斗不算有趣,怪物种类较少,没有能让我留下很深刻印象的战斗场景。
You love anime dark fantasy settings and metroidvanias then this will be right up your alley. Been loving the game so far and thanks to the recent anniversary sale it was actually quite cheap as a bundle with the other gal guardians title. For that cheap of a price I highly recommend checking it out. It also runs beautifully on the steam deck!
