GameZebo: Games like Castlevania and Metroid are great. Really, really great. So great, in fact, that the term “Metroidvania” has come to describe any side scrolling platformer like them. Dark Incursions takes that Metroidvania gameplay and sets it against the backdrop of an alternate 19th century – one with a steampunk vibe no less – and adds in a dash of true red and blue 3D for good measure.

AppGamer: Dark Incursion is set in a late 1800’s alternate reality. The protagonist is a woman called Anya, whose mission it is to stop a secret military corporation from developing and unleashing its biological weaponry across the globe.

Dark Incursion today was launched on Android after great success on iOS devices. The game is a side scrolling "Metroidvania" style game.

Pocket Gamer: Metroid seems like a perfect fit for the mobile. Who wouldn't want to delve into an elaborate alien labyrinth on the go? Maybe do a little item-hunting on the bus. Or backtrack your steps while a man who smells faintly of urine hums the theme to Mission Impossible on the last tube home?
