TOP PROS | TOP CONS |
---|---|
Near perfect gameplay with fantastic controls that combines elements from both “metroidvania” and “Souls-like” games. | Too many similarities with Dark Souls. In fact, IT IS a 2-d Dark Souls. |
There is a ton of weapons, armors and spells to find and upgrade each one with its own unique attributes. | Areas can be initially tough to navigate due to the fact that there is no map. Also, some platforming sections are frustratingly difficult. |
Enemies (particularly bosses) are challenging without being unfair. | Uninteresting story that is mainly told via dialogue boxes while talking to the few NPCs that are scattered around the world. There are no cut scenes whatsoever. |
Different character classes (from knight to chef!!) that play distinctly and progressively stronger enemies with each playthrough offer tons of replayability. | Forgettable soundtrack and sound design in general. |
VERDICT | A good and addicting game that will provide you with many hours of quality gameplay despite its few shortcomings. |
