How it feels

A deliberate, punishing combat-focused third-person action RPG with dark fantasy aesthetics and methodical exploration.

What players say

Players are split on Flintlock. Many praise the movement and ranged gunplay but find the core melee combat unpolished, with inconsistent parry timing and hit registration. The ending is widely criticized as unsatisfying, while performance stuttering and PC control issues are common complaints. A short, budget-friendly souls-lite that some find fun despite its flaws.
