      After...essentially doing that, here's what I think Dark Souls is: a game where you smack stuff with a sword, but that sword is made of cardboard and your armor is just a hologram. If you can somehow get past the smaller enemies, you get to fight the bosses...which will kill you if you go too far left. Also death. Many much death. I am unsure if the game follows any sort of story.

    As someone who initially bought Devil Slayer Raksasi when it was in early access and now that the game has been fully released, it's honestly a really good game! There's a lot of content in its roguelite style and the devs have constantly added in new areas, weapons, items, and bosses to keep every run feeling fresh. Truth be told, I still haven't properly beaten it. The gameplay style definitely feels more like Binding of Isaac than a souls game and I guess i'm just not used to it lol.

      Batman: Return of the Joker for Gameboy is a great example as well.
      While it probably doesn’t need both, mastery of the grappling hook allows you to play the game a bit differently, much like flying over entire levels in Super Mario World.
      And of course, wall jumps are always cool; gives the otherwise short game a bit of a NES Batman vibe. Definitely worth checking out for Batman side scrolling fans.

    The early Xuan Yuan sword games were actually pixelated turn based rpgs that were story heavy and slowly turned more into a third person RPG to appeal to wider audiences. Those were so fun. And the frog is a joke. There’s a frog like that in some of the games. Hit hard have a lot of health but excellent for grinding exp. A lot of the bosses in XYS 7 are basically bosses from earlier turn based games rebuilt. Such as the gearbeast

    I actually really enjoy Sinner sacrifice for redemption. Once you finish the game you can unlock new weapons and the trophies involve killing the bosses with specific requirements. Controls are tight too!

    It has been a whole year with this "playing souls like" formula.
    And i hope you keep going with it, many games deserve love. Also please play Children of Morta, a modern indie and Soul reaver 1 a very original classic literal darksouls.
