Bloodborne Reimagined as a Zelda-Like 16-Bit Game - Download it For Free
The idea of a "demake" is an interesting concept, as it means the complete opposite of remaking a game with upgraded visuals and mechanics - instead, some creative fans will often purposefully downgrade a game so that it matches a specific style. In this case, one fan of From Software's best-selling dark fantasy RPG, Bloodborne, decided to "demake" or reimagine the game as a Zelda-like 16-bit RPG. The results are pretty spectacular and charming in all the right ways.

Max Mraz, who is best known as the indie developer behind Ocean's Heart, recently developed a short Bloodborne-inspired project called Yarntown. The game takes the blueprints of Bloodborne, including its setting, mechanics, and features, and flips the world design and gameplay perspective into a Zelda-influenced top-down adventure title. Yarntown specifically adapts the Central Yharnam portion of the game, ending with the boss battle against the Cleric Beast. If you want to get a better idea of how this plays, check out the gameplay demonstration video below:
Best of all, you'll be able to download Yarntown free right now on Itch.io, simply head to this download link.
Bloodborne was originally released in March 2015 to critical and commercial acclaim, being one of the first big PlayStation 4 exclusives to garner Sony's console praise and, subsequently, lead to a small spike in sales. Shying away from Dark Souls while still retaining several familiar mechanics, Bloodborne chose to take a more visceral, fast-paced approach to its action and completely removed the block button as a result. A lot of focus was put on fast dodging and parrying, making it one of the developer's most challenging games yet.
Yarntown is now available for free on PC.
