[Prime/GOG] 9 Years of Shadows, a story-driven metroidvania

An abandoned orphanage lay submerged in dark secrets. Explore the memories of its missing orphans to rip the world from the curse that has befallen it.

9 Years of Shadows is an emotionally-driven metroidvania enhanced by healing music that tells the story of Europa, a young woman of noble birth tasked with ending the curse that plagues her people and restoring color to all lands.

Shape your way into this dark 2D side-scrolling single-player adventure as you explore a timeworn mechanical giant, battle hidden bosses with an intuitive combat system, scavenge collectibles, gain power ups, and discover some classic metroidvania easter-eggs. Combine Europa's melee prowess with Apino's ranged spirit magic as both cleanse the corrupted world around them.
