X35 Earthwalker Infernax

Infernax is an old school adventure platformer game. X35 Earthwalker himself has beaten this game twice with two different characters. We can straight of the boat say that Infernax is a very good game. Infernax is suppose to be like the old games. It’s suppose to remind gamers of the old days with those old games. Like NES games. They did a very good job of this. Infernax is successful. 

If you wanted more information on Infernax and the plot then read our previous G-blog on this game. simply put you are the duke. Warrior duke who returns him to find that demons and evil is around. A specific book brought these evil things here. Many are dying and being slain all around the place. So yeah. Time to fight.

It’s definitely old school. Pixel graphics, little health, many enemies, experience points, side scrolling, bosses, areas and more. It felt good to play a completely different style of game from what we usually have in these days. This game also has more going on in it than you’d originally think. Multiple side quests and even some secrets. It’s not a simple mash a button game. Infernax has multiple endings as well. 8 we believe. Simply put there’s the good ending, pure good ending, evil ending, pure evil ending and then there’s 4 more extra endings, including one where you are evil but then turn good in the end. So the replayability is definitely here.

There’s many enemies in this game. Quite a lot. So much that there’s a whole catalog of them. It’s the demonology. It keeps track of how many of them you have killed. We definitely liked this as it also showed how many more enemies we haven’t encountered yet. Most enemies aren’t a problem in our opinion. This leads a to a problem in Infernax. Like those old games, Infernax is tough. There’s some difficulty to the game but not that much. We can think of many old games that are harder than Infernax. The only time we really lost lives was through instant death falls like pits or landing in the water. The water castle dungeon’s whole gimmick is water everywhere and you can get kicked into the water easily. Just like some old games. That’s not difficult. That’s just annoying. The game was too easy for us. So we was disappointed in that. 

The upgrades and magic system was very good. We liked that when you acquired a new mace or armour you actually see it on your character. A colour change and the design. We appreciate that. Always good. Bigger games need a toggle feature for that. The magic is excellent. The magic actually matter in this game. Infernax did good with that. Magic for fast travel, changing the time from day to night and vice versa. Magic to summon birds to fight alongside you and gather coins. There’s magic to give you a projectile. There’s magic for full screen damaging thunder strike attack. We like and have used all the magic in the game. Very good job with the magic.

Now this is our last real complaint. Sure we hated the water castle level. Sure we wished there was more useful npcs and better social interactions. Our other complaint is the a bit funny but false warning/disclaimer. This thing lied to us. There’s no “saucy language”. There wasn’t “copius amounts of gore”. Worst of all… there was no “half clothed demon people of varying degrees of attractiveness.” The closest we got was the final boss who has breasts. That’s it. If you are going to give this much of a warning and attention… YOU BETTER DELIVER! We thought this game might be more extreme with the dialogues, the gore and the half naked demons but whatever.

Overall Infernax is a very good game. The combat is good. It’s definitely old school. Has some difficulty. Good variety of magic. An upgrade system and many bosses. All pretty much looking ugly and clearly demonic. We like that there’s different characters to play as. You have to unlock them. There’s a wizard who uses mana for his standard attack, which is a long beam with multi hit potential. There’s four that we know of in total. They wield different weapons too so give them a try. This is a short review so don’t expect much details here. Play it for yourself. X35 Earthwalker himself had a lot of fun.

X35 Earthwalker Infernax

Infernax is a action adventure platformer game developed by ‘Berserk Studio‘ and published by ‘The Arcade Crew‘. Infernax is said to be coming out the 14th of February 2022 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS4 and PC. Infernax is clearly going for that old school look and design. X35 Earthwalker is here. Let’s take a look.

The story of Infernax is very simple. You control a “great knight”. You finally return home. The city or town, whatever but things have changed. Your home is now “plagued with unholy magic”. So the town is cursed basically and there’s monsters, demons, horrible creatures and more. So all you got to do is find out what happened here and why. Uncover the mysteries of the curse. Oh and slay a bunch of enemies along the way. Told you it’s simple. Like an old school game.

So let’s keep this simple, like the game. Infernax is pixel graphics and old school style. If you liked the old castlevania games then you should like Infernax too. You go up stairs, jump up or down, strike enemies, find items, get stronger and talk to living people. Now there are a few modern touches though like a levelling up system. Gain experience points and get stronger.

There’s said to be loads of treasures to collect. These treasures off course have their own effects. So find what works for you or works for the situation. Like Castelvania and Metroid there’s loads of secrets to be found, so start attacking walls and exploring every hole you find. There’s a day and night cycle as well. We would like to know more about the effects off day and night. Do enemies get stronger. do civilians come out only at day? We know there are people you can talk too.

Remember those experience points? Yeah levelling up your character is essential. Why? There’s big bosses. Big bad monsters. Bosses wielding weapons. Monsters wielding magic and special abilities. These Boses have visible health bars and clearly going to take a real fight to put down.  there’s shops as well where you can get useful items and upgrades. Just don’t forget too talk to the towns people, survivors and stuff.  

We checked out some Infernax gameplay and it’s exactly what we thought it would be. Old school, pixels and smashing monsters. We do like that there’s multiple endings and they are based on your choices. Like whether letting that fat guy in the cloak stay or expelling them. We vote for getting rid of the evil. They might seek revenge though, so can we get the option to kill them please? 

Overall Infernax looks like it’s going to be a good game. Simple old school with some modern touches. The bosses do look quite low grade to us. We aren’t scared or impressed. We also think the special effects are not exciting enough. The developers ‘Berserk Studio’ have done an alright job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker aren’t impressed with this game but we know there’s gamers who like this style. Now Infernax may have unholy magic plague but that’s not a problem for… the ‘Earth Walk!’
