A methodical sidescrolling combat-RPG where every encounter feels lethal and demands precise skill and patience.

What players say
Players praise the Egyptian setting and side-scrolling take on Souls-like combat, but many find the gameplay loop repetitive with limited enemy types and no way to respec. Controls feel clunky to some, and the maze-like levels are divisive.
