Combat Details

Pharaonic is a brightly colored side scrolling Combat-RPG set in Ancient Egypt. Players start out as a slave who has to reveal the secret behind Ahmosis I, the Red Pharaoh. They engage in numerous battles to be able to complete their quest for the truth. A single mistake can be fatal, so they have to stay on their toes in order to survive.

Many players compare Pharaonic’s gameplay to that of Dark Souls and not without coincidence. Milkstone Studios has adapted the Dark Souls style combat design to a fast paced side-scrolling Egyptian themed environment.

Similar to Dark Souls huh? Looks like I may have to try this one out when it releases.

A lot of titles these days are getting their inspiration from the Dark Souls games. That must feel so nice for the Dark Souls development team.
