Steam review snapshots
I think he's an eldritch contracted Litch like Cher or Madonna.Taken in a vacuum it's pretty jarring compared to the atmosphere set up in Shrounded in Sanity and Usurper.The usual highlights are still present in this game too: very good 2D art, a really cool setting and story and great…After a lot of moody and atmospheric music in the previous installments, Into the Fray's battle BGM favors the electric guitar…Why it fits
Check it if you want action, rpg filtered by dark, psychological horror, pixel art.
