Review analysis summary (Reviewed Oct 19, 2026)

Gorgeous art carries this story driven action game, which scores 79.1 even as players argue over its controls.

👍 Strengths

Visuals & Sound appears in 71% of analyzed reviews and ranks 221st of 1249. 208 reviews praise the art style, animation and atmosphere, and some say it is appealing from the first look. 45 enjoy the story, with good dialogue, character interactions and an ending that feels earned, and Story & World ranks 600th of 1096. 43 find the combat responsive and satisfying, some single out parrying on rhythm in boss fights, and a few say a patch improved the dodge.

👎 Where it falls short

87 reviews find the controls stiff or unreliable, with sluggish walking and lock-on that misfires in group fights, and some call mouse and keyboard rough. 65 say the difficulty is punishing, describing brutal bosses and spikes that hurt casual players. 48 report bugs and crashes, from doors that will not open to skills locking out, and a few hit launch issues. Gameplay ranks 804th of 1396, and Tech & Support ranks 812th of 1399.
