The real concern is the keyboard controls, which are cumbersome compared to using a controller. However, it becomes quite manageable once you learn the proper timing. Either type of parry allows you to get in a powerful strike against the enemy.Ĭombat feels a little rough at times, particularly since you can only attack in two directions. You can parry enemy attacks directly with your sword, or shoot them when they’re vulnerable. Veimar has two weapons: an Iato sword and a pistol. The lamp not only makes it easier for you to navigate the darkest sections of the manor, but it also signals when an enemy is open for a pistol parry. Enemies also drop bullets, health injections, and batteries for your lamp. Yth stones are rare items dropped by certain enemies. You upgrade Veimar by trading Yth stones with NPCs in the manor. Instead vitae can be traded for additional bullets, more Yth stones (at a high price), and a blessing with an unspecified purpose. However, vitae is not used directly to upgrade your stats. Both the story and monster design have clear Lovecraftian influences.Ī substance called vitae can be harvested from defeated enemies, and when you die, your vitae remains where you fell for you to collect it. Veimar signs a contract with a mysterious man called Waltham, and enters the manor in order to defeat the monsters inside and banish the Fog. An unnatural Fog has surrounded the Berelai Manor and its servants have gone mad. Shrouded in Sanity has minimalist storytelling, with pieces of the story revealed through scattered NPC dialogue, items, and observations. Of these three, the comparisons to Dark Souls are the most immediately apparent. Shrouded in Sanity describes itself as “a survival horror game inspired by Resident Evil 1, Dark Souls, and Eternal Darkness.” Do what you were contracted to, and slay the Fog.
