Anyone tried playing it yet? It's on Game Piss so I've been giving it a whirl.

I like it so far. It is truly a Souls-like. The combat is very similar to the swordplay subset of Dark Soul 3 combat. There are some mechanics that are new and some of the mechanics have been tweaked to feel different.

A while ago I saw people comparing it to Bloodborne but apart from being set in British it feels more like Dark Souls.

I have been enjoying the boss battles a lot. They are very challenging. I die 20 times to the difficult ones. They feel fair nontheless. The only problem is the long walk back to the bosses which is slightly annoying.

Pretty fun so far. I am only nearing completion Chapter III though.

didnt realize it even came out, might pick it up and give it a go. The pinoccio theme seems corny but if the gameplay is fun i wont complain too much

It's enough of a deviation from the canonical portrayal that it won't bother you too much IMO.
