Grimvalor 12+

You can't just mash the attack button and expect to finish the game, but the dodge button gives you a ridiculous amount of invulnerability frames to avoid attacks that you can just keep mashing it until you figure out a boss' attack pattern... I'd say that's about the right amount of difficulty balance for a souls-like mobile game.

Zero bugs encountered, hitboxes are perfect, and the game is beautiful. All that's needed is more replayability like a new game+ or something and this game easily tops 2018's best.

One of the best “Hack and Slash” games in the AppStore.
Worth buying it
Suggestions, If its possible, maybe the developer can add the ff when they release an update.
1.) Make it bit bloody? or put an Option to it turn on/off. Its like if you get killed, blood comes out or if you kill an enemy, there will be some sort of cinematic slow motion sequence.
2.) Add some sort of elemental attributes when forging a weapon.
3.) Option to Sell items that are no longer relevant or no use so you can upgrade your stats
4.) Add additional weapons... A bow or something for long range attack
5.) Additional characters aside from the two or option to customize the look of your character
6.) More stages 😎

Pros:
- Enchanting dark world, interesting characters & storyline.
- Beautiful visuals, nice soundtrack.
- Excellent combat mechanics.
- Lots of weapons to collect.
- Responsive controls, MFI gamepad support.
- Very well optimized, plays well even on older devices.
- One-time purchase, offline playable.

Cons:
- Could use more character customization options but other than that, can barely find any.

Score:
5/5

One of the best side-scrolling hack n’ slash metroidvanias for mobile, definitely a must-play for fans of the 2D genre. Well worth the purchase, hope you can make more games like this.
