Description

The acclaimed indie game The Curse of Issyos is finally available for iOS and tvOS devices, after years of popular demand. Enjoy this renowned game created by Locomalito, author of other gems such as Cursed Castilla and Super Hydorah, on your big or small screen.
► LevelUp - “A great reconstruction of the action-platform genre of the eighties”.
► Indie Games Plus - “The Curse of Issyos is yet another fantastic example of the man’s love for old games and the care he puts into his work”.
► Destructoid - “It's a hard game, but it feels very fair. It's all about watching and learning, and then skillfully pulling off attacks at the right moment”.
Defkalion was fishing at the quiet blue sea when he heard the voice of the Goddess Athena. “Hurry up”, she said. “The isle of Issyos has been cursed by the Olympus!”
And so, fearing for his daughter Delia, his only family left, the fisherman sails back to his home, where the adventure is about to begin.
The Curse of Issyos is a retro-styled action platformer with nothing but the classics of an old 8-bit game: a good bunch of enemies and bosses, linear and open scroll levels, secrets to discover, and a background story inspired by Greek mythology. It doesn't try to mimic a retro system in particular, but it's coherent with its own limitations in the use of colors, sprites and chip sounds.

The Curse of Issyos Reviews

Awesome retro game!

D MCCreedy on

United States

Super cool game! It reminds me a lot of castlevania but in a Greek mythology world:) great graphics for the retro fans and super awesome chip tune soundtrack! I have other games you these developers and have enjoyed them all:) Works decent enough with the touch controls but I personally like to use my Xbox controller for a nice lag free experience :) if you like castlevania then I’d recommend this to you!

Exactly what I want from an action platformer.

Love it definitely a fan of Castlevania will enjoy this with a Greek Mythology take instead.

An amazing game

If you like 8-bit classic arcade games, this one is built on the same fundamentals. As a player you need to practice to improve, but it takes patience. The sword and spear mechanics are also well polished, as is the timing. Highly recommended.

Locomalito is the new Shigeru Miyamoto. Please bring 8-bit killer also to the app store.

Awesome game

This is one of the best games I’ve played,but it would be a lot cooler if the armor gives you extra health and if you can get the armor more often,but it’s still a awesome game

5 stars. Now please port to Switch!

Love the overlay, controller support, not to mention it's a fantastic retro styled game. Hope they make more love letters to the past like this!

With an MFI this is a classic

Jksoren82 on

United States

If you have and MFI controller than this game is effectively a masterpiece of 2D platforming. Borrowing elements from great games like Castlevania and Metroid (especially Castlevania), and yet avoiding the mistakes of those games, means that this game is essentially “perfect”. Good writing, good level design, and fantastic boss fights. The only downside is the length. I didn’t want it to stop haha. Great soundtrack as well. If you love old school games from the 80s and 90s then this is a must play.

Good old time game

Serop-ms on

United States

The game is great and the music makes u feel like ur playing nes game The only problem is the control is to small and most of the time i press down instead of forward and that’s really annoying and makes u get hit from the enemy so please have floated control and adjustments for this fix control and then I’ll say 10/10 is this game worth

Good Game

Please have a option for custom (resize & position) virtual controls. Besides that, this game is really good. Thank You👍🏻
