Perfect Parry,
Definitive Dodge-Roll
 

Games are often about fighting. The abilities, weapons and special powers that characters have get a lot of attention. But a really huge part of many games is how to combat and defend attacks from enemies. This is a list of games where the most enjoyable and fun aspect is the dodge-roll or parry.

  • Dodge-Roll is the ability to get out of trouble fast. Time this correctly and it often makes you invulnerable to damage at the same time.
  • Parrying is the ability to time a defensive move so as to knock away an enemy attack, often sending it back towards them to do damage.
