  • Soulslike
  • Action
  • Dark fantasy

A soulslike reimagining of Pinocchio: you're a puppet in Krat, a ruined Belle Époque city. You combine weapon blades and handles, parry at just the right moment to stagger enemies, and choose whether to lie or tell the truth.

Why play it now

When you have energy and several free evenings: its director reckons it takes at least 30 hours or so to finish.

Who it's for

For players after tough Souls-style bosses; since 2025 it has also offered easier difficulty settings.

When not to pick it

If you want to explore freely: its levels are fairly linear and the story isn't very subtle.

What it offers

  • Combat / action: 95 out of 100
  • Story: 50 out of 100
  • Exploring: 45 out of 100
  • Thinking: 40 out of 100
  • Creating: 30 out of 100
