    Surprisingly fun game, considering that it has such minimal game mechanics, like, I have used the same weapon the entire game, you collect the same items over and over, and basically fight the same enemies again and again. But somehow, this game is still good and I want to keep playing it. I think it is the complex level design and the AI partner (Jokell oh man, I feel so close to you),Surprisingly fun game, considering that it has such minimal game mechanics, like, I have used the same weapon the entire game, you collect the same items over and over, and basically fight the same enemies again and again.

    To me this Game is a Masterpiece. Even thought it is indeed a Soulslike it can Stand on its own, for its beautiful graphic Style, its unique atmosphere and above all that its absolute georgeous Score. The Combat is easy to learn and (sometimes) hard to master. But until the final Boss, I never experienced too much of frustration. To me its just fantastic!

    It's a fun perfectly competent souls like. The fact that you can coop it is cool too.

    Absolutely love the art style and atmosphere. Just wish they added check points closer to the bosses, especially for the higher difficulty mode.

    Ashen is one of the best souls-likes around and its quality matches that of the games that gave birth to the genre. The mystery and lore help to build a fascinating world that excellently complements the open and varied environments and strange, contorted creatures you will fight in them. A44 have provided a big breath of fresh air in a genre desperately in need of reinvigoration.

    Bringing a friend along can make one or two fights feel a bit too trivial, but then it’s worth having someone with you to appreciate the stunning vistas Ashen manages to capture. From superb shots of the sea to underground caves illuminated by the crackling fire of your torch, uncovering a new area is an utter pleasure. It might be a year late, but Ashen still manages to carve out its own space for greatness.

    One of the best Dark Souls clones so far and while some things are near identical the co-op features help distinguish it as something more than just a straight copy.
