Intrepid adventurers will dodge scores of hidden traps, leap treacherous chasms, and flee relentless guardians through branching paths until one of the relics are claimed or the devices of death overwhelm them. Be warned, you only get one attempt at each temple and failure or settling for a lesser relic means you will never see that temple again...\n\nThe cleverest players will use the phantom runs of failed attempts from other players to their advantage and avoid the missteps and mistakes that led to their doom. Once the legendary relic at the bottom of each temple is found, the temple goes away forever and becomes the priceless trophy of the skilled adventurer.","111498\u002Fphantom_abyss_webp","111498\u002Fphantom_abyss_header_webp","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.youtube.com\u002Fwatch?v=kpFo6ssoUAQ","2024-01-25",66,147021,"phantom-abyss",989440,[19,24],{"company":20,"developed":22,"published":23},{"name":21},"Devolver Digital",false,true,{"company":25,"developed":23,"published":22},{"name":26},"Team WIBY",[28,29,30,31],"Survival","Action","Adventure","Indie",[33,34],"PC (Microsoft Windows)","Xbox Series X|S",[36,52,67,82,96],{"id":37,"author":38,"outlet":41,"summary":47,"review_url":48,"review_date":49,"original_score":50,"normalized_score":51},76380,{"id":39,"name":40},3427,"Noah Kupetsky",{"id":42,"logo":43,"name":44,"website_url":45,"score_format":46},39,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FSteamDeckHQ-Logo.jpg","Steam Deck HQ","https:\u002F\u002Fsteamdeckhq.com\u002F","10","Phantom Abyss is a great roguelike platformer that shines on the Steam Deck without much compromise.","https:\u002F\u002Fsteamdeckhq.com\u002Fgame-reviews\u002Fphantom-abyss\u002F","2024-01-26","8",80,{"id":53,"author":54,"outlet":57,"summary":62,"review_url":63,"review_date":64,"original_score":65,"normalized_score":66},29825,{"id":55,"name":56},3147,"Vitor Braz",{"id":58,"logo":59,"name":60,"website_url":61,"score_format":46},33,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FMP1st-Logo.jpg","MP1ST","https:\u002F\u002Fmp1st.com\u002F","Phantom Abyss remains fun for a while, a challenging adventure that is as much multiplayer as playing TrackMania with its characteristic ghost cars is, an acknowledged choice that nonetheless makes the game infinitely more interesting than if it were a fully solo-driven experience. But at a certain point, after several runs, it finally hits you – temple running is quite repetitive, the overall functionality of the traps isn’t that diverse, and the excitement is vanishing. That’s the actual curse of the game, a core loop that needs you to realize that short sessions are the best way to go about it. Play it if you like old-school trials and to challenge yourself, but don’t expect to find the holy grail of parkour gaming here.","https:\u002F\u002Fmp1st.com\u002Freviews\u002Fphantom-abyss-review-ghosts-of-the-past-runs","2024-02-02","7\u002F10",70,{"id":68,"author":69,"outlet":72,"summary":77,"review_url":78,"review_date":79,"original_score":80,"normalized_score":81},54724,{"id":70,"name":71},4548,"Gary \"Dombalurina\" Sheppard",{"id":73,"logo":74,"name":75,"website_url":76,"score_format":46},45,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FGameGrin%20Logo.png","GameGrin","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.gamegrin.com\u002F","Phantom Abyss is a game that’s still fun in small doses, but technical issues and limited scope hold it back more than I would like.","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.gamegrin.com\u002Freviews\u002Fphantom-abyss-review\u002F","2024-02-05","4.00",40,{"id":83,"author":84,"outlet":87,"summary":92,"review_url":93,"review_date":64,"original_score":94,"normalized_score":95},66613,{"id":85,"name":86},3862,"Gabran Gray",{"id":88,"logo":89,"name":90,"website_url":91,"score_format":46},10,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FDestructoid-Logo.png","Destructoid","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.destructoid.com","If the tile set was larger, the randomness of the Daily and Abyss modes could have been enough to hook me for dozens of hours, but even though it lost me by the end, I enjoyed the adventures that Phantom Abyss provided.","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.destructoid.com\u002Freviews\u002Freview-phantom-abyss\u002F","\n\t\t\t7.5\t\t",75,{"id":97,"author":98,"outlet":101,"summary":106,"review_url":107,"review_date":108,"original_score":109,"normalized_score":110},100241,{"id":99,"name":100},8955,"Kyle Nicol",{"id":102,"logo":103,"name":104,"website_url":105,"score_format":46},138,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FWayTooManyGames.png","WayTooManyGames","https:\u002F\u002Fwaytoomany.games\u002F","There’s something about first-person platformer games that get me excited.
