Dark Souls
Dark Souls Video Review
Dark Souls is a dark-fantasy action role-playing game by From Software, and is considered a spiritual successor to the studio's 2009 hit Demon's Souls. The very challenging gameplay takes place in a large and continguous open world environment that encourages a trial-and-error approach. Casual or inexperienced gamers may struggle with many of its challenges, but experienced RPG players will enjoy its hardcore approach and the need for strategic and thoughtful play. Successful playthroughs of Dark Souls require more than 100 hours of play time.
