A horrifyingly beautiful, just-challenging-enough-to-be-satisfying metroidvania. I loved the unique world, the grotesque character designs, the fantastic voice acting, and the well-designed boss battles. I'm a sucker for souls-likes and this is certainly one of the best I've played, and although it doesn't push any boundaries or do anything you wouldn't expect with the metroidvania formula it is also one of the most solid metroidvanias I've played as to well.
