How it feels

A tense, atmospheric hack-and-slash through a dark medieval island, demanding careful combat and exploration in a compact, moody world.

What players say

Players describe Brume as a short, atmospheric souls-like that captures a strong mood but is held back by janky hitboxes, a punishing checkpoint system with no save near the final boss, and a known game-breaking bug that has gone unfixed for a long time. The combat is considered primitive and the game cryptic, though some appreciate it as a stripped-down, replayable snack between larger titles.
