Do you play any games on your smartphone? I'm looking for single player ones to kill some time when waiting for the bus. Ideally they should work without an internet connection, so I can disable network access for that app and play without ads.
I'm currently playing Words of Wonder, but it gets repetitive after a while.
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.
