End Of Abyss Commits A Metroidvania Cardinal Sin

End of Abyss pulls from a lot of inspirations. It has the same texture to its creepy world as Little Nightmares, which makes sense, given the team at Section 9 Interactive includes some former creators of that series.

AI Summary

End of Abyss is a third‑person sci‑fi horror metroidvania where players control Cel, a voiceless technician exploring a darkened facility for roughly 12–15 hours. The game draws heavily on other titles: its eerie texture mirrors Little Nightmares, its fixed camera angles recall Resident Evil, and its towering bosses evoke souls‑like combat that punishes mistimed dodge‑rolls. Gameplay blends shooting, environmental puzzles and regular upgrade unlocks that expand exploration. Reviewers note that while genre staples shine, inconsistent blending of these influences and a trust‑breaking flaw leave the experience feeling like a patchwork rather than a cohesive homage.
