Severed will put players in the perspective of Sasha, the hero of the game, who finds herself standing in front of a full length mirror with the bloody and bandaged stump of her left arm bleeding and dripping. It is up to her to find a way back to family while hacking and slashing a slew of horrible and grotesque monsters. The controls are simple: players will use the stylus and touch controls to solve unique and challenging puzzles, battle with large and nightmarish monsters, and interact with an RPG-styled ability tree.
