Review After 100% Achievements

This game is a must buy if you’re a fan of souls-like metroidvanias. The three different difficulties enable you to choose how much hand-holding you want during your playthrough experience. I went through my first playthrough on the harder difficulty and had over 300 deaths, while playing on Story mode my second time through to get the other ending netted me just 5 deaths. This game was made by a solo developer, and its mind blowing how much is in this game. There is a variety of weapons to use, a skill tree that feels impactful, a well-designed map with a ton of beautiful areas, a plethora of NPCs with their own roles in the story, a crazy number of bosses, and two different endings to discover. I did encounter a few of bugs during my two playthroughs, but the dev has already fixed some and is constantly working on eliminating the others to have this game as polished as can be. I’m a huge fan of the art style and the music helps take the game to another level. Two huge positives for me are the combat mechanics and the traversal abilities that make not only fighting enemies’ fun, but dodging all the elemental dangers as well. Had a blast playing this one, definitely going to have to do another run on my Steam Deck now!
