A dark Souls-like retelling of Pinocchio, set in a Belle Epoque city overrun by murderous puppets. Its weapon-crafting and lying system set it apart from other FromSoftware imitators.
Kit's verdict · 8.5/10
It's the best non-FromSoftware Souls-like yet, with a sharp twist on a fairy tale.Kit · Sadkitty Games
