Very good game, did not expect much of it but did not take much risk with the sale price..just spent two hours on it and I had a blast...the attack/parrying mechanic is very well done, as is the rpg side with useful abilities to unlock, and there's a shop where you can spend your hard earned money to buy new weapons, armor, throwing weapons etc...well worth playing with Controller Companion to use a pad instead of the keyboard...you can go for it, it's an hidden gem of a game !
