Lords of the Fallen

The game has a linear story divided into different acts that guide Harkyn and his mentor through the Rhogar dimensions inhabited by demons. He can form temporary alliances, but needs to travel into the heart of the realm. New areas are opened up by progressing, with the option to revisit earlier locations, and areas often have multiple paths with hidden locations. There are many additional quests, NPCs and a large amount of lore.

The gameplay involves choosing a combat style based on three magic types: brawling, deception, and solace, with four specific spells each. They largely translate to melee, rogue and mage classes. By defeating enemies experience is gained to unlock new skills and spells to use in combat. The player must use strategical tactics, including dodging, blocking, and spellcasting.

The game features a unique system where defeated enemies respawn, and the player can choose whether to lose health potions but keep the multiplier or vice versa. During combat, the player can lock onto opponents and perform combos by mixing light and heavy attacks. The energy bar can be leveled up, and skills can be upgraded for overall statistics and magic types.

The game also features an inventory system where items can be stored or equipped, with a maximum weight limit. Skills can be upgraded using attribute points and experience systems. The lore is stored in a separate section in the inventory. After completing the game, New Game Plus is available with unlocked spells.
