Our analysis
A terribly generic anime action RPG that hits every checklist trope, from waifu-laden party members to padded pace-killing bonding sessions. The psychokinetic combat of flinging scenery alongside a sword is undercut by imprecise control over what gets thrown, clunky double-tap menu navigation, and enemies whose telegraphs are hard to read. Redeeming touches include the inventive, abstract monster designs and a few genuinely bananas plot curveballs.
Our analysis
Outstanding combat undermined by 50% cutscenes with weak characters.
Our analysis
Satisfying combat with strategic depth; intriguing world.
Our analysis
Satisfying anime-style action with good combat; dull optional quests.
Our analysis
Excellent stylish combat and aesthetic that carries the game despite weak story, dialogue, and character relationships. The game starts slow but combat mechanics progressively open up to become engaging and rewarding.

Our analysis
Scarlet Nexus excels with stylish world-building and joyful combat mechanics powered by psychic abilities, but is dragged down by weak character dialogue, sterile relationships, and repetitive level design. Overall a strange and satisfying experience despite its flaws.
