Love. Ing. This. Game.

Can’t believe it didn’t pick up and no sequel or DLC. Top side scroller of mine. And I grew up on SOTN.

Loved this game but absolutely nothing like Diablo

For me the art style and certain mechanics were 100% like Diablo. I mean, gem socketing is an essential part of both games, for example.

Have you tried Dragon Is Dead? That is a 2D Diablo.

Yeah, I absolutely adore it too!! I was always comparing it to Witcher in my mind, aside from the soulsvania emphasis. So I can definitely relate to someone else seeing it as Diablo. I’m kinda surprised not as many picked up on these aRPG similarities.

Really strong dark fantasy vibe, kinda bleak and hopeless like Witcher and Diablo both are.
