Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“From the few hours I played the game isn't bad. It lacked the fun exploration of Hammerwatch 1 and felt watered down by having content spread so far out. But the primary reason I don't recommend it is having quests tied to total play time…”
“Do you like spending 2 hours looking for a hidden button in the dark? Do you enjoy fetch quests? Do you like to traverse long distances with not much to do? Then this game is for you! EDIT: They responded to me, now I'm the jerk. Feels bad…”
