I have been waiting anxiously for Apotheon since I first saw screenshots about a year or two ago of the unique art direction, triggering child-hood flashbacks of playing Castlevania II: Simons Quest for hours upon hours. Now being a huge fan of Greek history/civilization, I was very interested to see something that wasn’t exactly like the usual take on that time period/civilization, butI have been waiting anxiously for Apotheon since I first saw screenshots about a year or two ago of the unique art direction, triggering child-hood flashbacks of playing Castlevania II: Simons Quest for hours upon hours. Now being a huge fan of Greek history/civilization, I was very interested to see something that wasn’t exactly like the usual take on that time period/civilization, but had to force myself to not think about it too much as the wait began. Fast forward to today and having played through around 5 hours of Apotheon, I have to say the game has impressed me very much so far.
I absolutely love the visuals and little details within the game, which is heavily based on the art seen on ancient Greek pottery, conveying a dream-like feel as you wander the various areas within the game. The color scheme used for each area is very interesting, often going for a monochromatic look for many (if not all, as I have not completed the game as of yet) areas of the world, which gives the game a very nice and consistent look, yet each area within the game still feels distinct.
