AVA: Dark History
A punishing 2D platformer that trades narrative polish for old-school difficulty and pixel-art atmosphere.
GamerScout Verdict
For hardcore platformer fans only; unforgiving, atmospheric, and completely honest about its brutal design.

Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About AVA: Dark History
I went in expecting a story-driven adventure and found myself getting wrecked by deliberate, demanding platforming instead. AVA: Dark History is a hardcore 2D sidescroller set in the dark world of Koutei, where every jump, wall-slide, and enemy encounter is designed to make you restart. The pixel art is moody and cohesive, and if you're the kind of player who loves tight controls and brutal level design without hand-holding, there's something satisfying here. The catch: this is a niche experience with zero concessions to modern expectations. No checkpoints, sparse story beats, minimal tutorials. It works great if you're chasing that retro-difficult platformer feeling, but most players expecting narrative payoff will bounce hard. It's honest about what it is, which means it knows exactly who it's for and doesn't pretend otherwise.
