Faith: The Unholy Trinity

[TheNowInfamousFoxAzure]

This game was released on October 21st 2022 for Steam by New Blood. It's a gothic adventure game with beautiful 8 bit rotoscoping and a sound track to die for. It utilizes synthspeech that hearkens back to 1980s PC gaming.

I just started playing it and I have already fallen in love with it.

it's a good game but i feel the later parts are very trial and error for the bosses

I'm on the first boss right now in the attic, Chapter 1.

Perhaps it's cos I'm an aging goth kid, but I love the look and feel of the game.

you're not wrong there the game is great, just the one and done of the main character in a fight makes later bosses a pain to learn

Well, I'm not sure if you remember King's Quest. "Boss Fights" in KQ were literally the same.

I think the most you could do was stall for time for some fights, but for the most part you would die like, seven times before you figured it out.

Faith's bosses are far more intricate than KQ's bosses.

I've sadly never played Kings quest so i don't really have a ability to compare, but i will take your word for it on this. Faith was one of the first games i played like that so my own limited bias for that kind of gameplay might be coming though a little to hard

I think Archive.org has some of the King's Quest titles in their DOS Software Library. I highly recommend checking them out for history's sake.

Other than that Steam has a game for sale called "King's Quest Collection" or something like that. It has KQ 1-7, but for some reason lacks the final installment KQ 8 which I've admittedly never played.

Aside: my first was KQ 7. I loved the Disney-esque aesthetic and I am not ashamed to admit that as a child some of the bosses actually terrified me.
