There are several melee weapon types between spears, hammers, daggers, and swords that you can use as well as plenty of magic spells to use across several element types!
Story

31 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The story "ends" but leaves plenty of room for new adventures for the main character to go on, which is good.
Graphics

23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Visually, Scarlet Maiden leans into a detailed pixel-art style that balances retro sensibilities with modern polish.

Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
16 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The story/writing is pretty bad and the game is fairly short, but there's a pretty decent variety of items and enemies and the controls are fine using a controller.
