The Kingdom of Hermes has fallen, and alchemy is now being widely used across the kingdom. Attempts to halt the use of magic have failed, and plague-infected monsters are prowling the streets; the kingdom is in chaos. Corvus is the kingdom's only hope. Game Play 
Players assume the role of Corvus, covered in a feather cape and plague mask, on a quest to save the kingdom from a plague. Players move around to various locations battling mutant monsters and infected inhabitants. Reception 
Thymesia received mixed reviews on Metacritic. IGN wrote, "Thymesias aggressive combat can be enjoyable, but it's an adventure that's easily forgettable otherwise." Although they felt some parts "don't gel", GameSpot said that it is overall "a small, smart, and rewarding Souls-like experience". References
