Setting out to design a Souslike game to be as accessible for newcomers as possible while still catering to veterans seems like an almost impossible task, and yet that’s exactly the tightwire act Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn attempts. It’s a valiant effort that’s supported by some excellent art direction, voice acting, and combat but when it comes to wrapping all those separate components together into a single package, it struggles to stick the landing. There’s plenty of fun to be found in Nor Vanek’s quest to kill the gods, but the story that ties it together is disappointingly thin.
