Where madness really causes a problem is with bosses.

Wuchang: Fallen Feathers from developer Leenzee is the latest entry in a genre that is flirting with becoming oversaturated.

Wuchang: Fallen Feathers is an excellent addition to the soulslike genre thanks to its addicting gameplay, beautiful world, and narrative.
