Valdis Story: Abyssal City

You play as Wyatt in the ruins of a holy city caught in a conflict between two goddesses. Their war uses human souls to create demons and angels, while the Ferals pose a further threat.

Explore interconnected areas, find treasure, overcome platforming challenges, and battle enemies and bosses. Combat combines swordplay, martial arts, and directional sorcery, with magic souls that can aid both fighting and traversal.

Develop Wyatt by leveling stats and skills, choosing spells, and upgrading weapons and armor. Accessories add further options, while boss performance can earn grades that affect stat growth.

Players who enjoy the game often praise its customizable, high-skill combat and varied character builds, along with its soundtrack, art, and story or worldbuilding. Some find the controls stiff and the difficulty or platforming unforgiving, so reactions to how the game feels in play are mixed.
