A recently fan-translated RPG/roguelite/dungeon crawler with an incredible sense of atmosphere and sound: it can be haunting, anxiety-inducing or beautiful whenever it wants to be even in repeated playthroughs which I was very impressed with.

Gameplay while fairly simple is fun and well-balanced, and the post-apocalyptic, abstract story that you sort of slowly unravel a little bit of Dark Souls-style is filled with extremely striking imagery and while slightly too vague for my taste, I think it is very very lovely, I like to think it’s sort of an allegory about learning to deal with loss, trauma and/or the many issues with the world and to live life in spite of life’s inherent imperfection anyways. Which, I dunno, is executed real well and I think it’s neat. Good game.
