Overview
Description

Play as Selena, a grieving mother turned werewolf, and slash through hordes of monsters across fifteen intense platforming levels. The game blends classic 2‑D action with horror themes, letting you switch between human and wolf forms under the moon to unleash different attacks. Upgrade weapons in human form, unlock powerful wolf abilities, and face five iconic monster‑movie bosses while competing in speed‑run and score‑rush modes with online leaderboards.

Set in 19th‑century England, Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night follows orphan Miriam, cursed by an alchemist’s spell that turns her skin to crystal. She must explore a demon‑infested castle, collect powerful shards, and defeat the summoner Gebel to save humanity and herself. The game blends classic platforming with deep RPG mechanics, offering a massive arsenal of weapons, crafting options, and challenging boss encounters across multiple worlds, all playable solo or with friends in co‑op mode.
