42 of 42 · most liked firstAtari's decision to release its own Metroidvania game on the same day as Hollow Knight: Silksong appears to have hurt sales. Adventure of Samsara has only hit 12 concurrent players on Steam so far, despite having 100% positive reviews on the platform. www.videogameschronicle.com/news/atari-l...

unlabelledView post →Adventure of Samsara - Atari's reimagining of the classic Adventure game - is a really cool, slick, modern pixel art metroidvania! It launched on the same day as Hollow Knight: Silksong - maybe give it some much-needed love? (Read more: VGC)
unlabelledView post →Created by the Brazilian based Ilex Games, Adventure of Samsara serves as reimagining of the classic Atari 2600 game Adventure. You know, the one with the duck dragons. But before it became what it is now, development started back as early as 2015 under its original title, Tower of Samsara
unlabelledView post →Just played a bunch of this Adventure Of Samsara on stream there and it was real good, a shame it is getting lost in the post-Silksong shuffle right now. The little hints I'm seeing of how it is linked to ancient Atari 2600 game 'Adventure' have got me on the hook.
unlabelledView post →After more than a decade of development, Adventure of Samsara finally releases on September 4th, 2025...the same day as Hollow Knight: Silksong. Poor game never stood a chance.
unlabelledView post →2D Action game "Adventure of Samsara" was released recently. It has a native Linux version and is available DRM free at GOG. www.gog.com/en/game/adve... #gaming #linuxgaming #drmfree #gog #unity3d
unlabelledView post →Indie Showcase: Adventure of Samsara This indie game is a fantastic metroidvania callback to older times, but Atari was absolutely the wrong publisher to go with. I really hope they can find some sort of fan footing, because i'd really love to see more out of this developer. #indiegames
unlabelledView post →A good talk with Atari about the choice to invest more in a game that was completely incapacitated by Silksong. Instead of taking the L, Atari worked with Brazilian studio Ilex Games to deepen Adventure of Samsara and "relaunch." www.polygon.com/adventure-of...
unlabelledView post →I've been playing Adventure of Samsara for about three hours now and I'm really enjoying my time with it so far. The art design and overall atmosphere are excellent and the slower, more methodical approach to combat is a refreshing change. It's a tough game, but a rewarding one if you stick with it.
unlabelledView post →Adventure of Samsara? More like Adventure of SamsarUS! Shoutouts to all you Adventure-heads out there playing the game this weekend!
unlabelledView post →Proud to have done the music and sound design for Adventure of Samsara, a sequel to the classic Atari 2600 game. 👾👾
unlabelledView post →Adventure of Samsara beat. Just happened to get 100% by fully exploring. A game that has so much potential, but just falters at almost every step.
unlabelledView post →3rd game I tried from #SteamNextFest is... ADVENTURE of SAMSARA by @atari.com and Ilex Games It's a 2D Metroidvania action-adventure that mixes good platforming with souls-like battles and classic pixel-art. Genre: Metroidvania. Release Date: Coming soon. DEMO SCORE - 6,5/10.
unlabelledView post →"Adventure of Samsara" just announced by @atari.com as a follow-up to 1980's 2600 Adventure. But where's the Adventure in this game?
unlabelledView post →Been playing on the side 2 different Metroidvania-esque games on Switch that came out last year, neither of which is Silksong: Shadow Labyrinth & Adventure of Samsara, the latter of which came out on the literal same exact day as Silksong. Both are really interesting, but Samsara is the better game

unlabelledView post →Almost forgot to say this here: Adventure of Samsara - the game I had the pleasure of doing the soundtrack and SFX for - is competing in the Indie Game Awards, LATAM category
unlabelledView post →Taking a break from Jacksepticeye's Game Jam (itch.io/jam/jamsepti...) for more ADVENTURE OF SAMSARA! Join me for dungeons and dragons (but not the kind that need licensing)! And swearing at game designers! We're LIVE right now! Exclamation points! twitch.tv/BretTheBreton
unlabelledView post →So, @atari.com's latest, ADVENTURE OF SAMSARA - it's not my game of the year (it's no DEAD CELLS), but I like it! Another solid game release. I plan on playing al the way through this one! Bravo!
unlabelledView post →This is better than any memepost I could make about this game to promote the game today honestly. Good on Atari for showcasing this article, it's very good. And so is Adventure of Samsara!!
unlabelledView post →So, the bosses in ADVENTURE OF SAMSARA from @atari.com are HARD. And by that, I mean HAAAARRRRD! Dang. This game isn’t kidding around. I’m going to keep grinding, but I don’t foresee me getting past this guy any sooner than a week. #HardGame

unlabelledView post →@philsan.bsky.social @atari.com Adventure of Samsara is nominated for the best Latin American game at @indiegameawards.gg
unlabelledView post →ADVENTURE OF SAMSARA delivers on the adventure, for sure! There is a LOT of game to play, which I definitely appreciate!
unlabelledView post →Started Adventure of Samsara. Love the graphics and art direction. Trying to meet the game on its own terms, but finding it very stiff to play. Checkpoints/fast travel getting further apart and the lack of an immediate reward for defeating a boss is unsatisfying.
unlabelledView post →I guess I'm not above a bit of self-promotion: tonight I finished Adventure of Samsara AND played the Dungeon Gals demo via Steam. Best part: a DG dev showed up to chat about the game! It was a blast!!! twitch.tv/BretTheBreton Wishlist Dungeon Gals here: steampowered.com/app/2864880/Dungeon_Gals/
unlabelledView post →Tried that Adventure of Samsara game but it controlled so poorly I asked for a refund. I get animation priority in 2D games can be a thing, but everything felt like I was moving underwater. Really baffling design choice.
unlabelledView post →Streaming that Adventure of Samsara game that apparently no one played (and I might very quickly run through the 'original' game, for some context!). Come hang out! www.twitch.tv/andihamilton

unlabelledView post →So, there was a sale on that Metroidvania take on PacMan called SHADOW LABRYNTH so I bit. It’s okay. Definitely not my favorite PAC-game, nor a fav Metroidvania. Honestly, since the update, I’m just in love with ADVENTURE OF SAMSARA! Not sure how long SADOW LABRYNTH can keep my attention.
unlabelledView post →Everyone is in bed, I'm wrapping up a seminary paper for Gordon Conwell, while downloading the update to ADVENTURE OF SAMSARA from @atari.com. Honestly, the game was so close to perfect - I have high hopes for this!
unlabelledView post →@atari.com's already excellent ADVENTURE OF SAMSARA just got an update, and having read about it, it sounds EXACTLY like what I need to progress in the game. I love it, but I've been stuck on a rather challenging boss fight that I can't move past because I'm pretty weak on the battle mechanics.

Maybe I’ll beat MISSILE COMMAND DELTA by then? Probably not though… At this point in the game, it has gotten pretty tough. I’m not complaining!
