The story and the ideas are well done by the developers. Unfortunately, not everything comes along well in terms of technology and graphics, and the gameplay doesn't always manage to convince you. Thus, the developers have chosen a great storyline, but also neglected the important things a bit. If you still want to take a trip into this game world, you can take a closer look at "The Last Oricru".… Expand

    I found this game through the Czech Playstation instagram and because I’m a fan of the Souls-like Games, I was really excited to try this one. I wouldn’t say it’s terrible but neither good. The whole idea, the style and story really do a nice job in my opinion. Sadly, the animations feel kinda old with the whole game feeling like it was developed 10 years ago.

Sadly, the animations feel kinda old with the whole game feeling like it was developed 10 years ago. I didn’t enjoy the voice of the main protagonist, it sounds like he doesn’t care about anything at all. If I should do a resume, this game is nice if you really like Souls-like games or if you want to support an indie developer. It’s also easier than the Souls games, which can be good for many new players. It’s worth picking up for a nice discount, but not for the full price in my opinion.… Expand

    The Last Oricru just can’t seem to make up its mind. Strong presentation and performance are enough to get you in the door, but lack any significant development throughout the 10+ hour playtime. Sporting a weak story, insufferable protagonist, and barebones souls-like systems, The Last Oricru does not bring anything new to the genre. Also, what in the world is an Oricru?

    The Last Oricru is a fun storytelling experience told through the eyes of the Souls-like genre. It’s great to see everyone working for their own ends, and not being able to identify who is good and bad from the start. Focusing purely on what you think is most advantageous creates a story that fits your own personality well. But everything else is a regular Souls-like experience from top to bottom. There are attempts to stand out, but other than the story, they don’t have the impact that really leaves a positive impression in a player’s mind. The Last Oricru takes some risks, some of which pay off and some that don’t. It’s perfect for those who like their Souls-like games to have a good story, but if you’re not a fan of the genre, you’re better off staying away.

    The Last Onicru features some cool narrative choice work, putting some true impact on your choices. If you can get on board with the cheeky dialogue and peculiar main character, you should be able to overlook the lackadaisical combat.
