    Tyrant's Realm Review

    I'm not ashamed to admit that I'm terrible at Soulslike games. It took me over 80 tries to beat the Cleric Beast in Bloodborne -- that's right, the first boss -- making me the butt of jokes in my friend group to this day. Frustratingly, the dark and haunting worlds typically seen in these titles appeal greatly to me, leaving me continuously bitter and disappointed at my own lack of skill and gumption. Tyrant's Realm has proven to be the perfect remedy to my failings, numbing the pain of standard Soulslike combat by injecting the game with an addictive and atmospheric roguelite gameplay loop. Death isn't to be feared, but welcomed, as it opens the door to new and better equipment and upgrades that give the game's protagonist a better chance to thrive and survive.

    [...]

    Tyrant's Realm is a roguelite action-adventure inspired by classic PS1 visuals. Explore procedurally generated dark fantasy worlds, battling through dangers that evolve with each run. Death is not the end, as the night is still young.

    Tyrant's Realm is clearly a passion project made by people who were molded by both the PS1 era and FromSoftware's magnum opus. As mentioned at the start, I'm not a fan of Soulslike titles, but this one managed to win me over in record time. Affordable and stylish, it offers a fair amount of challenge without being overwhelming to newcomers, and its roguelite elements serve as carrots on a stick to make even the most discerning player prep for "just one more run."

    Score: 8/10
