Developed by more8bit Bleak Sword is a dark fantasy action game tasking players to struggle across compact, cursed diorama battlefields. Through nine tense chapters, heroes must lift the curse of the legendary Bleak Sword by striking down all manner of creatures in every forest, swamp, castle, and dungeon on their journey. Invoke powerful magic, uncover helpful items, and level up your character to upgrade your stats before facing down menacing guardians. Once the curse has been lifted the challenging Arena Mode and thirty unlockable achievements await even the most accomplished warrior. Bleak Sword is designed to be able to play it easily with elegant controls allowing heroes to roll, parry, attack and counter-attack using basic movements on gamepads and touch controls. Scored by award-winning composer Jim Guthrie with sound by famed designer Joonas Turner.

I’m about to cry because of how hard this game is and honestly I can’t help but make the comparison of thouartdead from Monsters House and Undertale but man this is difficult 😭
Cool concept but too hard and repetitive
By the 2nd area, it’s just too much. Enemies shooting things at you, tentacles popping out the water, and everything else is coming at you from all directions… it’s just too much. And the “block” is just too difficult to pull off consistently. Your timing has to be near perfect. And it just gets grating after the 15th level or so. It’s the same thing over and over, just more and more difficult. But I think this game could be great with more refinement. Make the block easier to do, give the player a much bigger inventory from the start, and the item pool much bigger and interesting from the start. Players will always enjoy making decisions on what items to equip 👍🏻
Not good
too small of inventory and really just kinda a boring game😭
Great mobile experience
Well thought out mechanics and punishing difficulty (play on max difficulty) create an addicting experience that I’ve put more hours into than I probably should’ve.
really neat!
looks cool, plays well. nice game.
Credits
Only negative is that you can’t skip the credits. This makes grinding so too time consuming.
It doesn't work
when ever i try and roll my character just stands there waiting to be killed
