The game opens with a 5 minute cutscene. I say cutscene, but it's really just the camera very slowly zooming in on a boat crossing the ocean before arriving at a shore where your characters hops off. Thankfully it's skippable, but it's a very boring start to the game.

After that you're tossed into a world that doesn't explain a single mechanic to you. There's no tutorial, no tips, no text at all.

The UI is very unintuitive. In similar games, if you move around in the world using the left stick, you usually navigate the menus/inventories with the D-pad. Not so in Below. Using the D-pad in menus just assigns items to quick slots, and you have to use the left stick to navigate menus.

The worst part about the entire game is that the controls are not rebindable. Below has been out for almost a year and a half by this point, and rebindable controls still haven't been patched in. This is a shame since the default control scheme is a disaster. Interact and run are both on the same button, dodge is for some reason on right bumper (you know, the most common button for attacking).

All of the above would be unacceptable for a game in the first month of early access, let alone one that has been out for almost a year and a half.

This is one of my favorite Souls-likes I've ever played.

I love Dark Souls, but I'm quite picky when it comes to Souls-likes. This game nailed it for me where games like Nioh and The Surge have fallen flat.

It took me about 7 hours to complete my first (mostly blind) playthrough. I did find it a little hard to figure out where to go about halfway through, but I found a good walkthrough on Neoseeker that helped me out.

This is also one of the few games I've actually done NG+ in, just because I was having so much fun with my character and I wanted to see how it would do in a higher difficulty.

There's very good weapon variation, and you can make plenty of interesting builds.

I got this for 75% off, but I honestly would have been satisfied if I'd paid full price for it.

Laughably short. My first playthrough took me 15 minutes. I finished two more playthroughs in another 18 minutes.

There's 8 achievements, which implies that there are also 8 endings. If you skip through all the text you've read already, you can probably 100% this in well under two hours.

EDIT: 100% completed in 58 minutes. This is a real bad one.

Far too difficult, and made even worse by the bizarre lack of a save system.
At the time of writing, you can save your game ONLY by renting a room at an inn. If you exit the game without resting at an inn, you lose all your progress. If you die, you return to the last time you rested at an inn.
It's a very promising idea in a beautiful-looking world, but only buy it now if you're really looking for a challenge.

Literally just a slightly larger Depths map with one cool boss at the end.

Basically Dark Souls-lite. You have the choice to play with an AI partner who can resurrect you (on cooldown) if you die during combat.
It's the best Souls-like I've played.

Watch some multiplayer gameplay here.

It's a very fun game, but right now you do need friends to play with. If you have a couple of friends who can pick it up too, it's a blast.

Co-op modes and a singleplayer mode with bots are planned for the future though!

It's great fun. I personally had no interest in Ritual of the Night, but I've really been enjoying Curse of the Moon.
It also comes with a casual mode for people who want to experience the game without knockback and with infinite lives!

What an absolutely wonderful game. You spend your time exploring a beautiful world and being helpful to all kinds of nice people. It's an incredibly unique game, and I absolutely recommend it.

Here's a video showing my first 20 minutes in the game if you're interested in that sort of thing.

It's fun, but does not warrant the asking price. Wait for a significant sale.
