Seem like ages since the beginning of videogames. In the past, for a gamer to reach the end of a game was a single-session, stressful activity which demanded a superior coordination for body and mind. Fail and resilience where the training, self-improvement and skill mastering where the trophy.

Why did all that got lost...? Maybe password and save games are to blame. Maybe the new generation of gamers is too week. Maybe the senior gamers just got tired.

Games like the ones from old days will never come back.

Let then a new champion bring chaos to this time of calm; stablish a new way to understand gaming, to enjoy, to triumph. Build gamer-black-knights full of will and rage.

Measure games, measure gamers. The bar has been raised, and it's called Dark Souls.

Welcome to Is it a Souls-like game, a platform built for the sole purpose of grading videogames in terms of the mechanics and characteristics of the Dark Souls series. And why doing this, you may ask?

Since the release of Dark Souls (2011), or perhaps since Demon's Souls (2009) a phenomenon began. Gamers started to pay respect to the Souls-series as a referent of what a well-designed and challenging game is. The concept of souls-like was coined and used as a measure for status and some posing.

By taking this phenomenon into account, we have built this space just for fun, but also to bring discussion about how much of Dark Souls is a game. Enjoi it!
