Gameplay

In Nunholy we watch the action in an isometric view. The game features nuns varied in of preferred weapons and fighting style. While Preiya is a vampire hunter who mainly fights using an axe, executioner Marie keeps enemies at a distance, using a rifle and grenades, and Sain makes good use of a pair of swords.

We explore dungeons in the game and face hordes of enemies. We must be constantly moving, skillfully juggling weapons, abilities and attacks. Apart from regular enemies attacking in waves, from time to time we have to face powerful bosses. The vampires we hunt are classified in of strength. Since our actions are subject to evaluation, it is worth hunting for the highest-ranking vampires (only when we are ready for it).

As we progress, we gather increasingly better equipment. The game allows us to absorb the powers of defeated vampires, however we can also choose to rely solely on human abilities. We sell unnecessary items and powers to the merchants we encounter along the way, such as witches, prisoners, or gravediggers.
