    Enotria: The Last Song Review

    Veni, Vidi, Vici

    When I reviewed last year's challenging yet rewarding Lies of P, I would have never imagined that just a year later I'd encounter another game that, at least on paper, sounds like a similar take on the Soulslike action RPG genre. However, Jyamma Games's adrenaline-fueled tour of Italy is far from an imitation, sharing some similarities but carving out a unique identity. Enotria: The Last Song is an engrossing, hard-as-nails, and incredibly gorgeous romp through an enchanting land smiled upon by the gods themselves - even if those gods currently seem more interested in making life a living hell for the poor souls who inhabit it.

    In the fantasy land of Enotria, the arts reign supreme. Creative expression of all types is akin to godliness, and those with unparalleled ability in the humanities enjoy near-godlike status. At some point, a group of brilliant artistic minds, known as the Authors, created the Canovaccio, an all-powerful play that essentially consumed the world, transforming it into a facsimile of its former self where humans are cast as mindless puppets doomed to act out an eternal script. Enter the Maskless One, a puppet born of the Tree of Change, free of the Canovaccio's influence and able to act with autonomy to pursue the Authors and put an end to their devious reign.

    [...]

    Enotria: The Last Song is a very promising debut from a new development studio, and an impressive benchmark to compare future releases to. In a crowded Soulslike market, Enotria distinguishes itself with its unique setting and impressive production values. Combat is satisfying, despite carrying the baggage of a few too many systems with it, most of which can however be safely placed on the backburner. The real star of the show, however, is the level design, which creates a series of showstopper moments that permeate the game's full runtime and never let a dull moment arise. With its optional story mode, the game offers something for every type of skill level, becoming an easy recommendation for players of all types looking to get into the genre.

    Score: 4/5
