INTRODUCTION
Studio 44 makers of ASHEN comes a explosive souls – lite, where Gods and guns collide in a battle for humanity.
FEATURES
Unique companionship between you and Enki.
Explosive souls-lite with dynamic and explosive combat.
A world with vengeful Gods on a rampage.
FAN ART
World is fun to explore and feels alive and has loads of secrets to find and explore.
Weapons are cool as alot of variety to them and all have own look and own stats and can be upgraded aswell which is always nice.
Enemies are cool as alot of variety to them and all have own look and own attacks to learn in order to beat them and will actively mob around you and to to surprise you with special attacks and more.
Difficulty options are nice as even on easy setting is still a challenging game.
Controls are nice and easy to understand as not to complex like don’t need learn multiple combos.
Traversal is very fun to travel around rifts using Enki and is cool and has a fun feeling to it.
Combat is kinda clunky especially when fighting multiple enemies and movement feels abit stiff.
Story didn’t grab me which made me not feel connected with main character.
OVERALL SUMMARY
Overall the world is fun and feels alive with cool weapons that can be upgraded and all have own look and stats to them and has easy to learn controls, challenging even on easy setting also has a cool traversal mechanics which is so fun and different. However for £34.99, the story didn’t grab me which made it hard to be connected with the main character and the combat felt clunky especially when fighting a few enemies at once with the movement also felt stiff and not as smooth as would of liked.
