A great take on the Metroidvania / Souls formulae that hits the sweet spot in terms of tone and playtime. No zone overstays its welcome (unless you're impatient like me and keep jumping into pendulums, of course....) and the atmosphere and lore are highly intriguing. The gameplay mechanics are instantly familiar and surprisingly tight.

After completing the game 100%, I'm right back in for a second, faster playthrough to challenge myself a little more.
