Morbid: The Seven Acolytes Reviews
Morbid: The Seven Acolytes is a great top-down Soulslike with the right mix of challenge and reward. It makes good use of the systems and mechanics it borrows from the genre staples and combines this with a darkly beautiful aesthetic and some memorable boss fights. It's not always clear how or the best way to progress, but if you've got a hankering for a bloody good time then you won't go too far wrong with Morbid.
Sprawling level design, thrilling combat, and great storytelling.

Morbid: The Seven Acolytes is a game that managed to grab me from the moment I ventured into it; it must have been due to the Lovecraftian setting, which has always been one of my favorites, its challenging level or its peculiar and winning artistic sector ... or much more likely the combination of the previous ones. A game that could satisfy the tastes of a wide branch of the public due to its genre that has now become a founding pillar of videogaming, but which could also be a first approach to it for those who are not practical with soulslike. An indie title that in its simplicity could be as valid as one of the triple A to which it is inspired.

Morbid: The Seven Acolytes is a challenging game which generally incorporates both the good and annoying elements of a Souls-like experience. Still, it manages to stand out thanks to its strong dark fantasy presentation, rich Lovecraftian lore, and gameplay systems that offer methodical combat and plenty of features to make the adventure satisfying. It’s a difficult game, for sure, but it doesn’t forego quality-of-life features for the sake of being difficult, and so in this sense, many players outside of the Souls fandom can get something out of it.
Morbid: The Seven Acolytes is a fun, gruesome game with challenging battles and a rich, immersive world.
Equal parts disgusting, horrifying, tragic, and downright beautiful, Morbid paints an unforgettable picture of Lovecraftian and Cronenbergian madness come to life.
Morbid: The Seven Acolytes is a decent action RPG that fans of the genre will enjoy. It has a dark souls style to it so be sure to keep an eye out for those shrines. Death isn’t to be feared but you will have to fight the monsters you just cleared, and in the later levels, this can mean a decent amount of time lost. Still, I enjoyed the progression from each zone with terrific music and I liked the art style that softened the sometimes graphic content. If you’re up for a challenge, Morbid is for you.
