Bygone Dreams is an interesting project from Bygone Dreams and a very exciting romp in the fantasy action-adventure genre. The RPG elements feel undercooked at times, and the game could use a map, along with other quality of life features. But don’t let that push you away. The combat is great, and the music, as well as boss fights are standouts, at least for me. Sure, it feels like a budget game at first, but as you progress, you’ll find yourself enjoying the gameplay mechanics, visual style and bosses. It might seem like a weird game at first, but Bygone Dreams slowly unveils a creative, beautiful soulslike experience in a fantasy setting. Plus, you even have some time trials and no-damage boss challenges to prove your might, so even if you beat the game, there are reasons to continue playing.
