The spiritual succesor of Salt and Sanctuary. Good combat, good exploration, good story, good soundtrack, good atmosphere. My only nitpick is the amount of things you can miss and the point of no return not being signaled at all. I recommend looking at some maps online if you dont want to get frustrated with softlocking yourself.

Good metroidvania: Lots of secrets to uncover, the game is very open (you can explore most of the map very early by (ab)using weapon skills) and rewards exploration, and a moody atmosphere. I played through it twice, and can recommend it to any fan of the genre. Personally I like it much better than other games in the same niche, e.g. Blasphemous, or Salt and Sacrifice.

This game is not talked about enough, it is Bloodborne meets Castlevania. The combat is fun, the platforming can be iffy but I attribute that to me pc being sub potato. I relish the day I get to play this with max settings and I have yet to encounter a soundtrack or area I didn't like.

So, this was an immensely enjoyable game and I actually don't know what one could possibly criticise. Maybe, just for the sake of it, let's say it would have been nice to have some kind of annotation system for the map, because it's easy to forget where the POIs are that are inaccessible until later. Also one could argue some spells are utterly broken, but well, who cares... Beside that the game has: - an engaging mysterious and dark story - C&C (including missable quests/items, which is a positive imho) - great visuals and music - lots of collectable items - lots of secret areas to hide those in - worthwhile exploration - fluid and responsive combat supporting various playstyles Overall, while 'side-scroller souls-like' might seem weird at first, this has been a great experience and shows a good game with great gameplay and story does really not require AAA+ Open World GPU-fest overkill at all.

What a fantastic metroidvania. The story is quite interesting if you are paying attention to the item descriptions. Combat is quite fun with a fair bit of build variety. (Sword parry and dagger dodge attacks are busted though) I had an absolute blast playing it.
