Awakened Evil PC Game 2023 review:
This is a masterpiece of heart-pounding retro horror action that will have you wondering, “What eviler shall emerge to impede my path to righteousness?” It is heavily inspired by the Johnson brothers’ real-life conflicts with the forces of evil.
The dark lord has returned, unleashing his horde of monsters on humanity. You must wield the legendary sword and defeat evil, once and for all. Based heavily on the real-life battles of the Johnson brothers against the minions of darkness, Awakened Evil is a masterpiece of pulse pounding retro horror action that will have you asking “what eviler shall awaken to block my path to righteousness?”
The answer, of course, is all the evil! The only thing nearly as exciting as the game-play is the inspired score, which adds even more tension as you battle the undead, brave harrowing cliffs, and jump in faith to platforms visible only in the heart of a raging storm! The weak will fail in the agony of defeat, but for the brave and determined, you will emerge triumphant in your narrowly earned victory!
Was excited to pick this one up because it comes from 2 creators who like good retro games and classicvanias and I was not disappointed.
