Our take on Arcadia: Colony
Boss encounters replace a standard defeat-through-combat structure with exploration and weak-point discovery. The three-hero setup also affects conversations, since some information is available only through a particular character.
What is Arcadia: Colony?
Arcadia: Colony is a 2.
5D anime-style Metroidvania set in a peaceful colony invaded by huge bird-like Puppets. Players switch between three heroes—Tazpo, Airi, and Enji—who each have distinct abilities and interactions. Exploration is used to confront environment bosses by locating their weak points, causing them to leave and opening the world for further exploration. Some characters share information only when approached by the right hero, making character choice relevant during conversations. Fast platforming uses jumping and dashing to cross the colony, while hidden information leads toward its underground mysteries and the reasons behind the invasion.
