Description

About the Game



Prove yourself in this action-adventure and master intense combat while exploring the ancient ruins of a mysterious civilization. Legends tell of Acrea the Lost Valley, a wild and overgrown place but unmistakably powerful. You found this forgotten land yet died. Time passes, and miraculously you are brought back to life. The price you pay: You are bound to this land.

Regain your freedom and embark on the quest of restoring balance in this ravaged and war-torn place guided by your trusty companion, Boji. Explore towering throne rooms of giant god-kings and long-lost cities. As you uncover their secrets, prepare to face even deadlier foes. Get ready to explore a world that is constantly altered by your discoveries and the waging forces! Set off for an unforgettable adventure.




Embark on an unforgettable journey and discover the story of Acrea and its ancient legacy. Discover the whole history that turned the peaceful valley into a place of war and death. Use this knowledge to destroy the relics of the past and restore peace in the war-torn valley.



Change is part of your journey where every victory leaves a mark in the world. Time keeps moving forward even if you die. Revisit the places of former victory and experience the changes you brought to the world. But beware! Your actions will lead to even greater challenges.


The hyper-responsive combat system allows quick reactions and precise attacks to fully control the flow of battle. It merges strategic anticipation of enemy attacks with split-second blade-to-blade reactions — the High Noon of melee weapon combat.



Encounter the God-Kings that ruined the land in the past. Bring their legacy to fall and free the land from the shadows of the old era. Harvest their powers and use them to unravel the mysteries of Acrea. New domains are waiting to be unlocked.


Both the adventurer and Boji have individual talent trees. The Adventurer is a fighter who gains experience through battle, whereas Boji is a craftsman who increases his experience by finding pieces of ancient lore.


Acrea's colorful world ranges from overgrown city ruins to frozen caves and winding canyons. Together with your companion, explore the deepest corners of an ever-changing world bristling with adventure. Every discovery holds treasures. Find rare materials, recipes, weapons, lore pieces, and beautiful places.

Stray Blade is a stylyzed souls-like where you play as a softspoken woman, Farray, and her newfound accented companion Boji as she brutally finishes off enemy after enemy in an attempt to leave the world of Acrea. Pros:

Souls Zelda | KAMGUSTA's mini Review It's just another souls-like / action RPG, this time in a more colorful Zelda-like world. You'll find the difficulty spikes and precise timings to hit/block that fans of the genre

Not terrible, but not good. Mid game. Tries to be souls-like but just hasn't had any real thought put into why. Combat is mid. Very mid. Story/lore is meh. Loot/craft system is not a system. 4/10 (If you have young kids

The gameplay is fine if rudimentary. The dialogue is incredibly annoying, as it's the trend these days. Music and visuals are pretty good. I mean not visually good from a technical standpoint but aesthetically. Actually

7/10 Best way to describe it is an okey story with souls combat. however the combat felt like it was lacking weight and so you get stun locked alot. choice of graphics was good enough, liked the art style!
