Quote:

Nine Sols is a lore rich, hand-drawn 2D action-platformer featuring Sekiro-inspired deflection focused combat. Embark on a journey of eastern fantasy, explore the land once home to an ancient alien race, and follow a vengeful hero’s quest to slay the 9 Sols, formidable rulers of this forsaken realm.

I have no idea how this game flew under my radar as I'm always looking to scratch that itch after I've finished ORI duology. Story, music gameplay is just superb. Sometimes I felt lost as the world is just open for you and there is no clear guide what to do (not all the time), but it didn't annoy me. You just need to start exploring unexplored areas to progress further.
It was a bit too hard for me on normal difficult in some battles and had to adjust it (you can adjust damage taken and given separately - great idea IMO). Overall it took me ~13h to finish.

If you liked ORI i strongly recommend to buy and play this one (it costs $12 now).

Do you use a box grate or a rasp?
