10/10 Combat
Tight, responsive, and incredibly satisfying. Very similar to Sekiro, if you’ve finished Sekiro six or seven times, you’ll find the parry system here feels natural and rewarding. Combat is easily one of the game’s strongest points.

10/10 Lore
Emotional and captivating once you get to know the characters and the story unfolds. The world-building is beautifully executed and adds a real sense of mystery and melancholy throughout the journey.

9.1/10 Bosses and Enemies
I’ve heard some players (noobs) complain about spammy enemies, but that’s just from dodging too much instead of parrying. The combat design rewards precision and timing not cowardice. A few mobs can feel repetitive and get very easy since they use the same opening animations and mostly just gain more HP later on, but overall, it’s excellent, there’s only a very small margin for perfection.

9.8/10 Level Design
Each area is thoughtfully crafted and packed with exploration. You can rush through if you just want to progress, but there's a lot to discover if you take your time. I only disliked part of Chapter 11, it felt a bit overdesigned and too intricate compared to the rest.

Got the true ending on my first playthrough, and it felt genuinely rewarding. Lies of P is a masterfully crafted experience. Fantastic game overall.
