I love these roguelites. S&S is no different. Gameplay is tight and there are many options for skill growth and how to go about through the game. Definitely one of the better indies.

The best way to describe this is its a dark souls metroid-vania game. Really fun and challenging. Just remember to be patient, and balance the risk reward in the situations.

This game is super fun yet challenging. If you like Darksouls and 2D games this is the perfect combining of the two.

This is an excellent 2D metroidvania game with influences from Dark Souls. It's a tough game but not unfair, very fun.

2D Dark Souls Knockoff

Not to say the game isn't well made, it just isn't very inspired. If you've played Dark Souls and are a weirdo, you probably already have imagined what this game is like, just 2D. The art is ugly though and a bit simple and the tutorial does not carry over much skill. You're presented many choices at the start of the game with no gameplay context while the given context is all cryptic and basically useless.
The game tries to ape Dark Souls and doesn't manage to be anything but a pale shadow.

Some say this game is like a 2-d dark souls, but its unique in its own way. I grabbed this since the LRG sold out.

This is a very cool but hard game. It is basically like a 2D platformer dark souls game. You can level up and improve your skills with a giant skill tree. The best part about it is there is 2 player couch co-op so you can play with someone else at the same time!
The Drowned Tome Edition of the game comes with a map of the world and an instruction booklet just like the old days.
If you like castlevania and dark souls games, you have to get this!
