Hello friends. This is a Let’s Play video of “Sancticide”. Become Ezechiel, sin collector in service of Them at The Top, as he ventures through what is left of our world during the End Times. It’s the Apocalypse and his job is to eradicate sin for the glory of God. But can a mere human really endure such fate?
In the desolate aftermath of a halted biblical Apocalypse, “Sancticide” thrusts players into the role of Ezechiel, a tormented Sin Collector burdened with remorse. The game masterfully intertwines intense melee combat, reminiscent of classic arena fighters, with modern third-person action dynamics. Players must harness spatial and directional awareness to survive relentless adversaries. The innovative “Purple” powers enable manipulation of the environment and foes, adding strategic depth to each encounter. The unique Kosherness system further enriches the experience by influencing quests, NPC interactions, and progression based on the sanctity of collected items. This fusion of rogue-lite elements within a richly twisted setting offers a profound exploration of sin, redemption, and survival.
