Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“The game was a nice idea, but unfortunately the mechanics just aren't interesting enough to justify making it a roguelite. It doesn't feel like there's enough to the gameplay to justify playing it for any longer than I did.”
“Desta: The Memories Between is a game that seems to inexplicably think that the best gameplay possible for a narrative naive to the point of being disingenuous is a cheap Into the Breach knockoff.”
