However, bosses will have far more in the way of unblockable (red stripes) and undodgeable (red circle) attacks. Sure, any regular attack (no effect), ranged (white spikes around the enemy), or special melee (yellow lightning bolts) can be blocked - and block parrying a special will lay the enemy flat for a time. In practice, Tails of Iron favors dodging over blocking. When it comes to defense, you’ll have blocking (available to either melee weapon) and dodging as well as dodge-rolling. No fancy respawn mechanics here - they just act like regular save points.
And if you die, you start over from the last save point, which takes the form of various benches with an attached blue lantern. To keep you in good health, you can take a swig from your bug juice flask (Redgi likes it with chunks). In this charming side-scroller, you run around and beat up frogs, grubs, mozies (mosquitoes), and a few other similar enemies. Now Redgi has to fight an uphill battle to reclaim the realm. But everything changed when the swamp nation attacked. The frogs are invading your medieval ratte kingdom yet again, and your father is about to crown you the king. In this game, you’re not the bearer of some curse that ironically makes being unable to die a bad thing. What’s needed for a game to be declared Souls-like? Brutal melee? Constant failure? A focus on death and rebirth? Estus flasks? Being featured in an Iron Pineapple video? Well, if combat is the key to Souls-dom, then Tails of Iron definitely has that in spades - and a lot of charm to boot.
