A WARNING: Tunic is extremely spoiler-sensitive, and it’s also very good. I recommend not reading much about it if you’re interested.

Anyway, Tunic. Cool game that I played a couple of years ago. I was surprised to see several near-explicit Dark Souls references in it (the tearstone rings and bells of awakening, particularly) beyond just the more obvious gameplay similarities. Anyone else here tried it out?

    Totally fair! I personally enjoyed the combination, but that’s always going to be a subjective thing. I think you’re right that it doesn’t initially present itself as being Soulsy though, I was quite surprised to start noticing the similarities

      At its core is some unique game design that made me figure out a way to get over its problems rather than give it up entirely. If the devs didn’t add Celeste-style accessibility options I probably would have binned it.
