How it feels

A relentless, hard-boiled side-scrolling brawler where you wade through blood-soaked streets as a detective pushed to brutal extremes, with a grim, noir-driven atmosphere.

What players say

Players praise the pixel art and Oldboy-inspired aesthetic, but most find the combat clunky, repetitive, and sluggish. Fights rely on the same few combos and finishers that take too long, and enemies often stunlock or have too much health.
