Morbid: The Seven Acolytes is a top down action game in a pixel look. Aside the usual suspects in this genre, the game shows a more mature look. Pixelblood everywhere, grotesque monsters and yes, it got the soulslike tag.
I'm honestly not a big fan of soulslike games, they often build up on a clunky movement, that involves many dodges. But the game does some things right and the visuals for the npc's and the monstes are a sight for itself. The landscape, does serve it's purpose and i do like how they laid out the clutter on the landscape. So it does feel like a abandoned place, where people used to live.
I kinda wished, that they would've gone the route, that Diablo 2 did, where you get a lightradius around your character, to give the game a more dynamik look. But it's okay, it also works how it is.

Like most soulslike games, this one isn't exactly easy, you get checkpoints, where you can save and heal, but this will respawns all enemies.
You get some kind of level up system, but this only kicks in, after you defeated the first boss. So the doesn't allow you, to grind for some juicy stat increases. You get these only through the weapons, that you find and the runes that you can place in these weapons slots.
