I don't write many reviews but this is an exception. The game is legit. Very very fun. Like others have said, feels like DS and sekiro had a baby, with some thymesia thrown in for good measure. Levels are complex and interesting to explore. Boss fights are very fun. It's not too hard on normal - maybe a tad on the easy side when you get into the combat flow. There is some jank but it's good jank. These folks really understand and love souls games. If you do too, don't skip on this title.
A very good 'souls like' game! It has element of Sekiro, with lots of parrying but importantly you can beat it, I think, by grinding away and levelling up your character, with some parrying, lots of dodging. (This is unlike Sekiro where you cannot really develop your character by levelling up - which I could never master. ) It has nice graphic and fairly good audio and sound effects. It also has a basic story with some NPCs, mini side quests and it creates an interesting and colourful world to explore and fight your way through. I have had no software / computer crashes with this game, so far. The combat is generally good and mostly precise with lots of parrying, although dodging is also important. You can upgrade your basic character's attributes / levels like most 'souls like' games, but no real upgrading weapons and equipment. You only have one sword with two main types of attack and no armour / equipment upgrades - so far. However, you can upgrade your skills (eg parrying, dodging, damage given out, special attacks, health recovery etc) as the game goes on by finding important items [which upgrade your skills / health potions etc ] which encourages exploration. Notwithstanding this, the game is fairly linear - although you still need to explore around a bit to find these items. Although the game is fairly linear some of the levels are quite interesting and intricate in their design. It also has some very hard bosses to beat - that require certain particular strategies to overcome. I found the Second Boss particularly hard to beat and had to 'grind up' quite a few character levels to beat it !!! In conclusion, a very good 'souls like' game with some really good combat and some good level design,. The game is incredibly cheap to buy - its a 'no brainer' at the price. It only cost me about £10. This game is not a very well known 'souls like' game but it should be and most fans of this genre will simply love it! In some ways broadly similar in quality and enjoyment to Bleak Faith: Forsaken although on a smaller scale. However, the combat in this game is much, much better, whereas exploration in the latter game is superior being a much bigger and more intricately designed world. Amazingly, the game is apparently made by just three people ! Well done. I will be looking out for your next 'souls like' game.
Pretty good game! But only if you're a souls like / parry fan! It's obvious that it's indie game has some bugs but no too many. The good: - fun rewarding and responsive parry system - fun well designed and challenging bosses (except for the mage that one was lame) The bad: - exploration is kinda meh, enemies mostly sitting around waiting for you to back stab them, they are also either extremely blind (the melee ones) or extremely perceptive (the archers), weird - all in all the mobs are nothing to write home about - missing voice lines(sometimes english sometimes korean), story is basically just a placeholder, you have no idea what you're doing or why All in all a solid 8/10 (considering it's indie) To the devs: keep going! you have done good work
If you're like me and you spend hours scrolling through Steam for a new souls-like because you've beat them all, buy this. 6/10 game It feels like Dark Souls 1 and Sekiro had a baby. However, if you aren't a hardcore souls fan, I'd skip it. This game was obviously designed by such fans, and for such fans. Pros: - Combat and boss fights can be very exciting and require 5-10 attempts to get the moveset down before you win. - Parrying is easy and feels rewarding - Nice customization for equipment (you get 12 ring slots basically) - No stamina bar (nice for some players not to have to worry about it) Cons: - Glitchy. You can get stuck on terrain, bosses hit you through walls/pillars. Can be frustrating. - No gear. You have the same sword the whole time. There's no armor to equip. You can change your skin only to maybe 5 options. - Exploring is not that rewarding. Mostly you are opening up shortcuts which are unnecessary because there is a waypoint nearby anyway. - I don't understand the quests or story at all. - Sometimes the dialogue went from English to Korean, then back to English lol It's definitely worth the $15 if you are out of games to play and looking for a souls-like to occupy you for a few days. That's probably the only scenario to buy it.
