Mandragoramost definitely incorporates soulslike elements and while developers did refer toDark SoulsandThe Witcher 3as two major inspirations, you’ll find a wholly different kind of experience here asMandragorais a 2.5D sidescroller.
“Journey through a world in decline, slowly falling prey to the damaging effects of Entropy. Fight vicious creatures, challenge nightmarish bosses, meet new allies, enemies, and every shade in-between, and make harsh moral choices. There are many paths worth taking. Choose yours.”
