A deliberate, exploration-driven action RPG with stylised fantasy visuals and a methodical combat pace inspired by Souls-likes.

What players say

Players praise the interconnected map design but split on the combat: some find it forgiving for a soulslike, others call it tedious rather than difficult. Early areas frustrate with a forced blighted town and no ranged option, and the sound is not directional.
