Mortal Shell is a deep action-RPG that tests your sanity and resilience in a shattered world.

Pick your suspect, deduce the motive, unmask the awful truth. Discover clues surrounding 12 strange and gruesome deaths and build your own theory. In fact, it wouldn’t be surprising if some of the learned lessons may end up being applied to the upcoming roguelite AK-xolotl that’s being published under Playstack’s umbrella, too. A new kind of detective game that allows you to think and investigate freely. For the price you can do worse but IMO there are better souls likes out there. Mortal Shell is a deep action-RPG that tests your sanity and resilience in a shattered world. In a recent interview with, Playstack’s Vice President of Publishing Rob Crossley went into considerable depth on what his team’s done to ensure Mortal Shell‘s success. No hate, compared to most souls like it’s just average, take away the visuals your left with 4 shells 2 of which are better then others and very little weapons.

While it’d be easy to attribute this success to pure randomness or, perhaps, the game simply being at the right place at the right time, the publisher just revealed it had set up a fairly comprehensive marketing campaign that’s bound to have helped Mortal Shell be as successful as it’s been. Cold Symmetry’s tight and focused Soulslike Mortal Shell came out roughly three years ago, and according to the publisher, Playstack, it has sold a whopping one million copies worldwide.
