Sooo, im not a pro at reviewing games but,;
- Combat is very simple but works with different weapons and talismans.
- Not so many bosses and monsters but still entertaining where they grow more difficult over time.
- The atmosphere is glorious and is very beautiful with lots of exploration.
- The characters and voice acting is great for an indie game.
- And the artstyle is very monotone with not so many different Colours and is very grayish.
So all in all, very simple and beutiful game.

Honestly, this game is a gem. It was gifted to me by a friend, and I've been captivated by its charm ever since. The music is enchanting, the landscapes are breathtaking, and the combat is simply exhilarating. It's an easy 9.5 out of 10 in my book.

However, there are a couple of drawbacks:

The multiplayer feature seems to be currently down, which is a bit of a letdown because I was looking forward to exploring it with friends.
There's been talk circulating that the game has been abandoned, which is really disheartening considering its potential.
To the developers: I want to extend my heartfelt thanks for creating such an incredible experience. Despite the setbacks, "Ashen" remains a standout title that has left a lasting impression on me.

Boring combat, boring world, and ♥♥♥♥♥♥ multiplayer. Buy dark souls II if you want a clunky piece of ♥♥♥♥ that at least looks good.
