Gameplay

Two characters from Gal Gun, Shinobu and Maya, become trapped in a castle similar to Castlevania. Players must guide them to freedom by traversing the castle. Gal Guardians: Demon Purge is a side-scrolling platform game. Shinobu is a ranged attacker, and Maya is a melee fighter. If one dies, players can continue playing by having the other reach her. The game is saved at checkpoints.[1] It supports cooperative multiplayer.[2]

Development

The title was originally Grim Guardians: Demon Purge, but this was changed in March 2023 after a dispute over the trademarked term "Grimguard".[3] Inti Creates released it for Windows, PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One and Series X/S, and Switch on February 23, 2023.[4]

Reception

Gal Guardians: Demon Purge received positive reviews on all platforms except for the PlayStation 5, which received mixed reviews.[5] Although Digitally Downloaded said it is not innovative, they said fans of the early Castlevania games would enjoy it,[1] an assessment echoed by Hardcore Gamer.[6] Nintendo Life called it "a solid, playable adventure" and said it is almost, but not quite, as good as Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon.[7] Nintendo World Report praised its retro gameplay, though they said it can feel a bit repetitive by the end.[8]
