Soulstice doesn’t claim to have the best graphics on the market, with some low-quality textures, almost non-existent lip synching, and overall just missing out on that final layer of polish that could have really made the title stand out. Having said that, it at least tells a coherent story with lots of additional pieces of lore found in the menu to have a read, should you feel like learning more about the world and those that inhabit it. The narrative isn’t incredibly engaging, although that isn’t to say it isn’t a good one, just not the most original tale ever told. Both main characters are rather likeable with a good dynamic between them the stoic warrior, Briar (who reminded me a little bit of Lightning from FINAL FANTASY XIII) and the meek and softly spoken “Shade” (she’s a ghost, basically), Lute. Chimera are powerful members of the Order of the Ashen Blade, tasked to put a stop to the monsters terrorising the city of Ilden. You take control of duo protagonists Briar and Lute, two sisters bound to one another by their souls to be reborn as Chimera.

The game starts off with some backstory to set the scene: an ancient evil known as Chaos was sealed away long ago and, unsurprisingly, has now broken free of its prison to wreak havoc by unleashing hordes of demons on the world. But is this a game worth hyping up, or is it destined to be yet another forgettable title? This dark fantasy action-adventure from developer Replay Game Studios came as a bit of a surprise there hadn’t been much advertising and few people were talking about it. With so many releases in the videogame industry lately, Soulstice very nearly flew under my radar. Reviews // 20th Sep 2022 - 1 month ago // By Mike Crewe Soulstice Review
