Description
Mortal Shell is a deep action-RPG that tests your sanity and resilience in a shattered world. As the remains of humanity wither and rot, zealous foes fester in the ruins. They spare no mercy, with survival demanding superior awareness, precision and instincts. Track down hidden sanctums of devout followers and discover your true purpose.


Posses Lost Warriors
The dead litter this tattered landscape, but not all are without hope. The lost remains of defeated warriors are yours to discover. Awaken these Mortal Shells, occupy their bodies and significantly open your understanding to diverse masteries of combat.


Face Haunting Foes
Your path is guarded by desperate adversaries, devoted to inscrutable gods. Behold creatures both pitiable and grotesque, but do not let fear halt your journey. Muster your courage and face them down.


Iron Sharpens Iron
Combat is strategic and deliberate. You must commit your sword only when an opportunity opens. Calculate your parries to unleash devastating counterblows. Temporarily entomb your Mortal Shell in stone to block attacks, or play aggressive and use your stone-form to add brutal weight to your own sword swings.

My first Souls-like

For a long time, I had a lot of problems with combat and died many, many times. Eventually I caught wind on how to fight, and the game became better do-able. You need to move a lot, and primarily avoid getting hit! The atmosphere is really grim (which is fitting), and the combat is cool. Despite the fairly short gameplay, I think that there is a bit too much walking in the game (Eternal Narthex area especially!), and a map would not be a luxury. I've beat the game multiple times. The hardening mechanic can no longer be exploited after you've beat the game, because you start losing health if you're hit while hardened. Despite many frustrations because of me dying, I think it's a cool game. There is replayability, but that wears off after completing the game 7 times. Btw: the Martyr was my first boss! The only thing I would really like to add is that I would have liked better instructions on what to do etc. Took some time to find out how to become 'good' at the game.

Good

I think this might be harder than Dark Souls

3 hours average gametime for all players

This game is way too hard. It makes sense that the average gametime is so short.

Meh....

The game has great potential but: - Too many trash mobs - You don’t really know what you’re supposed to do, so you just end up randomly killing everything you see - The bosses aren’t memorable—I honestly don’t even remember any of the ones I defeated - No healing potions, and you can’t craft them; the only way to heal is by waiting for some weird mushrooms to respawn On the positive side: + I really like the mechanic where corpses change the player's stats + The banjo adds a nice touch Good potential, but it’s hampered by too many trash mobs and a lack of clear objectives.
