This game is absolutely worth buying. Beautiful visuals, great music, really challenging and fun gameplay, excellent level-design. I really think this is one of the most perfect games there is. Some of the boss fights maybe frustratingly difficult but still worth it.

If you compare it to Castlevania SoTN, then no, it's not worth it.
If you compare it to your average, then it's solid.

What? It doesn't have anything to do with SoTN, lol! It's not even a 'metroidvania'...

if you want a challenge yes, altough it's challenging on a not very fun way outside of bosses, most of platforming is oneshot traps and "gotcha moments", if you're not interested on the beautiful metal ost and aesthetic then it's definitely not recommended though

So I am approaching the end. It began with me loving the game. Now I am getting pissed. Stupid monster combinations lead to trial and error to figure out how to handle them.

The pixel art and music is GREAT. Their are clear cut ways to deal with certain enemies.

For instance there is a large monster in this same level that will one shot you. I spent about 10 deaths trying to pass 2 of these with parrying their attacks. You can kill each with 3 straight parries. If you mistime it just a tad though you die in one shot. That is annoying as ♥♥♥♥. So another way to deal is bait their melee and jump out of range and do a charged attack. 3 or 4 charged attacks deal with them.

The enemy design is somewhat irritating as is the boss battles. And I am not scared of challenging games. Its just annoying. Like lets flood you with enemies that don't stop moving forward and a mini boss type enemy who launches projectiles that cause a nasty aoe but he also moves forward.

I wouldn't compare it since they're different styles of games. And combat in Slain is MUCH better since SOTN is just too easy.

That's not "annoying." That's challenge. The player has to figure it out.

Watch my video of killing every single boss without taking damage. Then come back here and comment to all of us about how hard it is to dodge three random monster attacks lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2sDu0RHj38&t=3s

like this game style,but game ís little bit retarded
1,no Cloud save and share game between Pc and Steamdeck
2,no healing from mana,you die everytime
3,stupid movement,jumping with movement and sliding like on ice when you stop.
4.when you launch game with gamepad only,you must connect mouse for setup window at start

No. The game is beautiful but the gameplay is bad.

If you played games more than you buy them, perhaps you wouldn't be bad at it

^Dude played the game for two hours then quit. Probably does that with every game.
