Dark Souls Isekai
A metroidvania that follows a schoolgirl spirited away to another world as she sets out to try and regain her memories. The Heroine's low HP, high damage from enemies, potentially devastating status effects and traps strewn about make it a perilous journey, so care must be taken as you explore. Most melee weapons have some windup time and an animation you can't cancel out of, and if you take damage you will be staggered out of your attack. Most enemies can also be staggered and interrupted, so proper timing and positioning is important for fighting effectively, it gives the combat a nice strategic flavour to it. You also have magic as an offensive option, and it ranges from the elemental projectiles you can expect to more exotic options. There are also interesting things going on with environmental interactions, mainly with how liquids on surfaces and bodies of water can be affected by elemental attacks, and the ability to spread liquids on surfaces. Taking advantage of these mechanics can give you an upper hand in combat, and they are also just fun to play with. All this and the buff-giving equipment and consumables can be combined to tremendous effect, which you just might need to stay alive with how frail you can be, heheh. Standard enemies can be dispatched quickly if you know how to deal with each, though can still be challenging. Unsurprisingly you do not want to let them swarm you. There is also a good deal of variety on display. The bosses are challenging and will need you to make good use of all the tools you have on hand, along with just plain old good reflexes to survive their onslaughts, and all have impressive designs (particularly if you like anime girl eye candy). Story seems like standard stuff, you will probably see the twist long before it hits, but it is still fun to witness especially with the game's weirdness. A lot of fun overall, I strongly recommend it if you like metroidvania.
