Watch the trailer
Complex slash-based combat. As you encounter the flames, you'll start enemy battles. Things get complicated as you face off against multiple foes at once. Use strategy to scope out the bigger threats and eliminate them first. Swipe to attack and parry, and fill up that Focus gauge for the opportunity to get Severed mode for those valuable monster limbs for upgrades.
Dungeon crawling. Explore the nightmarish world of Severed by navigating from room to room and solving puzzles along the way. But watch out for those flames, because you're not alone in there...
Powerful upgrades. As you defeat your foes, make sure to max out that Focus gauge so you can activate Severed Mode. This means that after an enemy is defeated, you can take a few seconds to cut off it's limbs and use them for upgrading Sasha. This is important, since you need to become stronger on your quest to overcome the darkness and find your family.
What is it about?
Prepare to slice limbs off of your opponent, and use those limbs to become stronger, as you battle through a nightmarish world in Severed. The game delivers familiar mechanics in an all new adventure that is packed with style. Severed offers the core slicing style of Fruit Ninja integrated with the battle components of Infinity Blade to make for an accessible style. The game is familiar, yet fully fleshed out as an all new touch based adventure pitting you as a one armed warrior in search of her family.
