Metroidvania is a subgenre of video games focused on guided non-linearity and utility-gated exploration. The term, popularized by video game critic Jeremy Parish, is a portmanteau of Metroid and Castlevania.

This is a cloned community from Reddit. I intend to hand over mod support to the original mods should they choose to migrate to Lemmy.

I've played a lot of the usual suspects: Super Metroid, SotN, GBA Castlevanias and Metroids, etc. Just played Hollow Knight and loved it. I'm less familiar with MV's that would've come out on the Vita or PSP. Any suggestions??
