This is an indie dungeon crawler with a touch based battle system where you use the stylus to slash at enemies.
You play a lone one-armed woman named Sasha as she travels a strange world in search of her family.
The way the battle system works is you slash at enemies by swiping at them on the touchscreen. Longer swipes are more effective at dealing damage.
After taking a certain amount of damage, enemies will take protective measures to block your attacks but these can be bypassed fairly easily to continue dealing damage.
Enemies may also attack you back with a red indication that you can swipe from the opposite direction to parry with the right timing, therefore negating any damage it would have done.
Also in the game is a “Focus” meter where filling it to full and slaying an enemy puts you in a “Severing” mode where you can slice the body parts off enemies as loot.
You use this loot to gain skills that augment your sword and magic with each level having its own body part requirements. Throughout the game, you will also get “Giblets”, small pieces of meat that you can transmute into body parts if needed.
