- | The name '**Metroidvania**' originates from the beginning of the [[game:castlevania_series#Igavania]] era of the [[game:castlevania_series|Castlevania series]], when the games seemingly took inspiration from the [[game:metroid_series|Metroid series]], and became more exploration-based. The term has since become a (misappropriated, and ugly) common descriptor of any game in that style: a 2-D platform game with adventure game elements (a genre well established by many games preceding //[[game:castlevania_symphony_of_the_night|Symphony of the Night]]//). | ||
