Highly addictive and challenging gameplay with a good blend of real-time roguelike and soulslike mechanics.
Excellent atmospheric setting and audio design, including dynamic lighting and a memorable soundtrack.
Varied and interesting combat system with a wide range of weapons, magic, and strategic options that reward skill and creativity.

Steep learning curve and punishing difficulty spikes can lead to frustration, especially due to artificial difficulty related to loot drops and enemy immunities.
Control scheme and UI complexity make quick adaptation during combat difficult, with issues around input management, consumable selection, and camera movement.
Pacing and exploration can feel slow and tedious due to large map size, slow movement, unclear objectives, and cumbersome level design elements like keys and levers.
