About Clash: Artifacts of Chaos
You play as Pseudo, a master of martial arts who lives as a recluse in the strange land of Zenozoik. When you cross paths with the Boy, a small creature whose mysterious powers have attracted the attention of Gemini, the Mistress of the Artifacts, you decide to protect him, unaware that much greater forces are involved.
Drawing upon both surreal and punk fantasy influences, the world and civilisations of Zenozoik are brimming with fascinating characters, creatures and landscapes. Roam this intriguing land and discover its paths, inhabitants and ancient secrets.
Your fists and speed are your greatest weapons. Attack, dodge, stun, block, counter a parry to land a special attack, switch to first-person view to perform unique techniques: each time, it's up to you to seize the occasion to achieve victory and avoid mistakes that could quickly prove fatal.
Learn various martial arts during your adventure and alternate freely between them based on the situation, types of enemies and your preference. Victories will enable you to improve your characteristics and upgrade your attacks, so you can develop your own unique style.
Before fighting, you can challenge your opponent to a game of dice, with the winner defining the rules of the encounter – often to their advantage. Summoning a monster as an ally, covering the area in fog, having shackles limit movement… far from determining the outcome of the combat, the Ritual represents an opportunity to exploit if you win it or a challenge to cleverly overcome if you lose.
Your search for the Great Artifacts that will help you defeat Gemini will take you farther than you ever imagined. While taking on the mercenaries pursuing you and developing your friendship with the Boy, you must confront your past and delve into the sources of the chaotic society of Zenozoik.
Clash: Artifacts of Chaos takes place in the same universe as Zeno Clash and Zeno Clash II, but the game is entirely independent.

Waited a long time to play this game, huge fan of Zeno Clash I & II. This game delivers on the world and atmosphere present in the earlier titles in this vein but fails in every other respect. - The world wandering seems tedious and involves much backtracking. - Most fights feel the same, with some scant special characters adding zest to combat. - The combat system doesn't seem to flow like the previous games. - The artifact system adds little but frustration to the arena, especially when your opponent rolls his dice out of view so you can't see them when placing your stamps. - Worst of all, you have to earn the first person combat view from the previous games, it forces you to hard lock A SINGLE opponent when you do so, letting the special be interrupted by enemies outside of your view WHOM YOU CANNOT LOCK. In addition, the move-set you've earned through out the game doesn't transition to first person mode, making it stale and uninteresting very quickly. - Finally, no way to disable annoyances like motion blur. Really disappointed in this title, wish I could refund it for the sale price as I don't think it's even worth that. I loved the previous games in the Clash…
It's weirdly good. The controller feels a bit weird at first. But when I get used to it, it's so good. The combat is truly satisfying.
cool game cool concept good graphics , but the fighting feels weird and way stiff and the enemies have crazy weird difficulty waves one second their nothing and the next their goated and tbh the lack of map access makes it difficult to find ur way correctly just awkward gaming
interesting souls-like, with a refreshing story and art style 👍
Amazing weird fantasy world, fun souls-like gameplay, great environments that twist and backtrack on themselves, an enjoyable story, and it doesn't outstay its welcome.
Way better than it should be
