    Great art style and the gameplay has real potential but the combination of the limited color palette and camera perspective makes it very difficult to see enemies and sometimes even makes it hard to navigate the level. Unfortunately the game is just frustrating for all the wrong reasons

    If you were hit once and there is more than one enemy you are dead, no chance/ you will die because enemies will spam attack and you can't do anything for 1 sec after hit. And the most dangerous enemy of the game is a spider, you will never know when he is going to attack, it dodges 90% of your attacks and do not dare to come close, it will destroy you and you never know when.

Other enemies are easy, if you know their animations you can easily block and counterattack them. And frozen peak is broken in quality mode, the screen is just black and you barely see some blue **** near the edge of the map, i don't recommend buying this game on switch for 10$… Expand

    Bleak Sword DX is a tough sword-slashing adventure that stands out thanks to its interesting visuals and standalone levels. Although this exciting outing feels fresh and looks great, the difficulty level may be too high for some players.

    An exciting Soulslike that has to struggle with frustrating mechanics and, despite a great presentation, keeps tipping the wrong way between fun and trouble.

    For all the good, the reality is that Bleak Sword is in serious need of substance, and the novelty of a “lo-fi Soulslike” on mobile is lost a little on a proper console.
