Where to buy it:
Epic Store
PSN Store
Xbox Marketplace
Walktrough:
99% of the time the game is just "clicks" and you will know where to go and what to do, but the remaining 1% can be annoying without some help
Tips and tricks
Upgrade your fire spell early, the last third of the game was amazing
Weapons can be upgraded at the blacksmith, spells at the alchemist
Keep an eye for shrines, early game without health upgrades and weak spells/weapons can be tricky
Speak with NPCs often. Sometimes the game progresses and new side missions will be available
Press the action button while opening chests. Gold is a light metal in this universe, often flies into the air and stucks unreachable height
Bugs
Bugs can be annoying, a new patch just dropped minutes ago. A really bad bug softlocked me in the last third of the game. I succesfully bypassed it with a trick. The new patch should be fixing this bug
Some of my screenshots (only location spoilers, hard to spoil anything because this is not a story driven game)

A Big Patch for GRAVEN is Live!

We hope this will brighten your day and you will be able to spend a pleasant weekend enjoying the game!
Highlights of the patch are balancing changes to the stamina system, the addition of NPCs that will fully heal you in each hub and gold pickups after player death, not to mention fixing various bugs that could have blocked your progress through the game. Full change log is available below.
We cannot stress this enough - please, keep sending your feedback, suggestions and bug reports if you wish to help us make the game better. We also keep an updated list of known issues here, with tips that might help you should you encounter some of the as yet unsolved bugs.
