It's a very standard linear western hack & slash with an slightly medieval dark fantasy setting.
The combat presents an interesting dynamic of gaining health by doing damage when using light magic (but light magic depletes with time, regardless if you regain health or not), or getting refilling the magic bar by hitting multiple times without being hit.
This makes the combat to constantly alternate between an offensive style (when using magic and trying to gain health) and defensive style (when trying to get magic by hitting without being hit), and this keeps the combat engaging.
It also has some cleaver puzzles and platforming sections.
