Flintlock: Siege of Dawn Review: Buy, Budget Fund or Scrap?

JJ and Skate spent the weekend working on… Flintlock: Siege of Dawn. And those two days were enough hours to finish the game. Both guys were definitely interested in getting their hands on this title. It’s a game called Souls Lite, which Skate always likes. And since the difficulty level is adjustable in this game, JJ wanted to know if it was a perfect, challenging, and fun starting point to try Elden Ring again later. What did they think at the end of Sunday? Did they have a good time, was this perhaps a gem that everyone should have tried, or are From Software employees not even allowed to tie their shoelaces? You’ll get the answer in our Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn review.

Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn Review: Is There a Triple of Double A Souls Lite?

Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn is a third-person action RPG. In this title, you play as Nor Vanek, a member of a group that must save humanity from destruction. Brutal has once again been opened, allowing bitter ancient gods and the dead to flood into the world. Since they are not in a good mood, you have no choice but to fight them.

Elden Ring’s standard looms over every Souls game.

So Flintlock is what we call Souls lite. In other words, a game that isn’t quite like Souls, but also has elements of other genres. As a player, you can attack enemies with swords and firearms. You’re not entirely alone in battles. You’ll be accompanied by Enki, a mysterious fox-like creature. You can control Enki, distract or stun enemies, teleport, or amplify Nor’s attacks with magic. Are all these ingredients enough to keep JJ and Skate glued to the screen?
