[8/10] reviewed at 01/12/2021 - : Mortal Shell (PS4) - A Souls-Like for Hardened Veterans [read the full review on Push Square]


Sounds Amazing
Controls are sometimes a little janky


Two lives to live
Familiarity bonus promotes experimenting and focusing on certain items
Weight to melee combat feels good and proper
Ballistazooka a satisfying secret upgrade to discover
Empowered ripostes and rare mushrooms only way to heal damage sustained between checkpoints
Incredibly short for a Soulslike
Hidden lore scrawlings take a lot of blindly attacking walls to uncover
Green and blue haze hides the finer details to Fallgrim


Meaty combat with unique abilities
Shell system allows for easier build access
Music and voice acting is excellent
Not many boss fights
Harden ability somewhat trivializes fights
Level design is either lacking or too convoluted
Can be attacked mid-cutscene
Combat can feel clunky thanks to input buffering

Good combat system
A lot of freedom in the composition of constructions
Sometimes excessive compression
No "Pros & Cons" find for this reviewer.
No "Pros & Cons" find for this reviewer.
No "Pros & Cons" find for this reviewer.


Gorgeous Visuals
Innovative Class System
Poor Narrative Structure
Glitchy


Decent enemy variety
Between repeated use of healing items and powerful mechanics, difficulty really isn't there
Various mechanics are not really balanced
Insane margin of error makes the desire to improve moot
Most problems can be solved by either rolling past of chipping away at their health
Tedious mechanics make even new items annoying
Bland world that looks largely the same
Only four main bosses
Very limited weapon and character variety
Lack of RPG mechanics really hinders the depth


Genuinely creepy atmosphere
Interesting additional mechanics help give the gameplay some sense of identity
Not enough gameplay variety
Small campaign that somehow manages to remain tedious throughout

Interesting visual design and rich atmosphere
Value price point
Minimal weapons/builds options
Uninteresting story/world building
The way healing items are handled


[6/10] reviewed at 27/08/2021 - Test Mortal Shell: The Virtuous Cycle DLC ? Rekindled [read the full review on GamingBolt]


Ranged enemy assaults have a consistent audio effect
Sequences were exciting and accurately conveyed the anxiety
Weapon upgrades greatly reduce difficulty
Game's theme felt unclear
Enemies are less predictable in how they stagger


The game still looks fantastic, regardless of how bleak the areas are.
The familiarity system with the items is a very neat concept.
Most weapons don't feel worth using, in virtue of just being way too slow to be reliable.
The game is extremely short.
No "Pros & Cons" find for this reviewer.

Overall concept of the shells is still quite cool
Odd design choices


Virtuous Cycle adds fun rogue like elements
Different shells for different play styles
Comparatively short for a Soulslike
Interesting story gets lost in confusion
