    This is a massive undertaking, and seemingly the work of just two people, which is mindblowing. The story didn’t hit at all for me, but I’ve found myself absorbed in that hypnotic ARPG space where I am delighted to just keep attacking and looting, while the other half of my brain listens to podcasts. And as much as I might wish for a world where indie developers are pushing the Diablo-like into entirely new directions, that world doesn’t exist, and I’m just so grateful that there’s anything else at all in the space that’s soon to be filled by the entirely standard arrangements of Diablo IV.

    Ghostlore is an enjoyable and engaging ARPG that brings a fresh spin on the genre. While it may appear relatively straightforward initially, it offers a refreshing experience by drawing inspiration from Asian mythology. Its skill and glyph systems add a touch of novelty, enabling players to experiment with various builds and making the game’s replay value sky high.
