How it feels

A compact retro-styled Souls-like with precise parry-focused combat and a contemplative Daoist atmosphere

What players say

Players call it a janky but enjoyable souls-like with a decent boxy map and clear inspiration from Bloodborne and Dark Souls. They praise the weapon system and the ability to combine swords mid-combo, but warn about technical issues like stuttering, invisible enemies, and harsh boss explosions. Most agree you get what you pay for at its low price point.
