While world design, boss design, art style, atmosphere, and story are all important aspects of a Soulslike, by far the most integral feature of any game in the genre is its combat. Setting a lofty bar right from the get-go, FromSoftware's unique approach to methodical, deliberate action gameplay is what runs through the DNA of most Soulslike games, and if those fundamental mechanics aren't received well, then it's usually game over. Thankfully, Another Crab's Treasure not only nails those Soulslike fundamentals of combat, but also throws in a handful of its own unique gameplay mechanics for good measure.
