Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“Unknown 9: Awakening is an ambitious debut from Reflector Entertainment—with a promising magical-lore setup, occasionally striking locales, and a handful of novel ideas—but it’s weighed down by flat, clunky combat, technical issues…”
“I would refund this game but I attempted to deal with the numerous issues of game play and went past the 2 hr limit. Do not waste your time on this game. The story seems fine and all but the mechanics are terrible target locking is useless…”
