This is a excellent metroidvania with Sekiro-ish parry mechanic
and an engaging emotional story.
The difficulty of this game is NO JOKE but once the combat rhythmic click, U be dancing with the enemy with style & end victories.
The boss fight are the main highlight of the game & the narrative are so good it rival with God of war (2018) & sekiro.
(i look at U, Lady Ethereal) 
The Music surprisingly combines traditional Chinese orchestra with futuristic techno elements sprinkled with hym like vocal chanting
it's like a great jazz piece.... unusual but harmonic fantastic.
This game developer previous 2 games is in the horror + narrative game genre.
For a first time they create their 1st metroidvania game.....(and it's 1st of the kind of parry system focus metroidvania too)
It's OUTSTANDING!.....If U are a metroidvania fans with the liking of difficulty,
This is a must play!

Personal rant:
Its very disheartening this game got snubbed by the Game Awards for the lack of recognition.
& for those reviewer that played the game in two hours & give a bad review....
the game have a difficulty slider & story mode in the menu......U can play the game with easier setting, this game really need player to master the parry & talisman mechanic, the first boss is the first real test if U can handle the game,
(it take me almost 2 hours to beat the 1st boss.......NO JOKE)
after this battle, it open up more offensive item & skill that really make the game more enjoyable.
