Combat Goddess of Death in This Metroidvania Hack & Slash Game

Experience a moving journey of love and grief intertwined with the richness of Celtic mythology and Metroidvania gameplay.

It's quite an accomplishment for an indie game to garner over 12,000 wishlists on Steam. Well, SoulQuest, the game we're discussing today, has done just that.
