FAN ART

PROS

Characters that you meet all have own look and all have own personality to them.

Playable characters all have own look and all have own feel and own moves to give you different options for battles such as Alves is fast but Valentina has armor and more also you have to unlock them from playing you start with Valentina then Alves and finally Nicora.

Valentina
An honorable knight dedicated to protecting the weak and standing as a bulwark against evil, Valentina blocks incoming attacks with her stalwart shield and puts the might of raw muscle behind every sword swing. Play Valentina if you like outlasting opponents, meeting them head on with pulverizing power.

Alves
An elusive trickster, Alves knows how to hamstring his enemies’ quickest attacks, evade their most devastating blows, and make them bleed for every swing they take. Play Alves if you like outsmarting opponents with clever ploys and deadly combos.

Nicora
An ingenious mage, Nicora combines the raw power of elemental fire, ice and lightning to burn, freeze and shock her opponents into submission. Play Nicora if harnessing the primal power of terrifying magic seems the best way to defeat the trial of the gods.

Items are super impressive as so many and all offer own uses to help during runs and can use them at anytime during battles with using a turn which is a cool mechanic as alot games healing or items is a turn.

Accessories are super important in runs as offer so many perks and can equip loads and can change runs such as giving you health back after each fight or giving you attack damage up and so many more and not permanent as each accessory only lasts so many fights then its gone which stopes you being overpowered.

Skills are very impressive as not only is there alot for each character but all are unique and can swap them out to make own build and can even upgrade them to make them super strong and can be upgraded a couple of times but only once at a rest spot which adds a whole layer to which skills you upgrade first.

Choices are important as there is multiple paths and multiple options such as picking if a boss has more defence but less attack or more attack and so many more options not all options are beneficial either so be warned.

World is interesting and new each run with own layouts and own monster spawns and interaction points.

Monsters are very cool as alot of variety to them and all have own look and all have own attacks you need to learn in order to defeat them.

CONS

Super difficult and very easy to fail runs can be frustrating at times.

Sometimes RNG gives you a naff hand and makes you fail like you are just meant to fail.

I GIVE THIS GAME A SCORE OF 8.5/10

Overall has a cool story and cool enemies, skills are impressive and unique and all the weapons have own look and feel and the world is fun to explore and feels alive and much more. However for £32.99, is so much to learn as alot of systems and skills can be daunting and is clunky when navigating menus and sorting inventory on a controller.

PROS 

* Story is interesting from start to finish. 
* Enemies cool own look, attacks.
* World is alive and fun to explore.
* Skills all unique make own builds.
* Weapons own look, feel, stats.
* Huge point allocation make own style. 
* Freedom use any weapon is awesome as not limited to one style.
* Alot of content for £32.99, cool story, enemies, weapons, world, skills.
CONS 

* Alot to learn so many skills and systems can be daunting.
* Clunky navigating menus on controller.
