ghostlore, a diablo-like where you fight monsters from Southeast Asian folklore!
this game was made by two (2) (!!!) people from Singapore and it is very neat. it just launched out of early access and I've been having a ball
I am not what you would call a diablo aficionado, so I can't speak to build diversity and end-game and all that stuff, but I very much enjoy how this game feels. i also like that character development is done via a tetris board, and the fact that you can turn into a tiger
most importantly though, I'm happy to just play a game that isn't based off the usual myth. I've been reading through every bestiary entry to learn about all the spooky monsters that I probably never would have known about if I didn't play a game made by peeps from Singapore.
i didn't get it on xbox game pass, but I do know it just got put up there. also, it runs perfectly out of the box on steam deck, no tweaking required
I've been working on that one. It's pretty cool. I know nothing of the folklore, but I agree it's neat to see something other than western fantasy in a game
