Side-scrolling action-RPG where you play Dust, an amnesiac swordsman exploring hand-drawn environments to piece together his identity. You swing the sentient Blade of Ahrah in fast-paced combat that lets you juggle multiple enemies using combos, air dashes, and screen-clearing attacks coordinated with your flying companion Fidget. Between fights, you'll navigate interconnected zones—forests, mountains, caves—taking on sidequests for NPCs, hunting for hidden chests, and unlocking new abilities that gate off earlier areas. Light crafting and gear systems let you tweak stats. The story threads your personal mystery through the fate of a dying civilization. Combat's accessible but rewards timing and crowd control once enemy counts spike. If you want a Metroidvania structure with combo-heavy brawling and a narrative through-line, this delivers both.
