    Downward is a good platform with parkour elements, featuring an imaginative art direction and some open-world ambitions. Albeit a bit rough on the edges, the gameplay is challenging, robust, and with some nice quirks that will surprise the player.

    Downward is not a perfect game, but its approach to the first-person action-platform environment works well and the graphics are great for a low budget production.

    Despite low budget Caracal Games managed to fulfill their ambitions to a significant degree. There are few decent games about parkour and Downward is a welcome addition to that niche. [10/2017, p.51]

    A bold, but wealthy debut, Downward recovers the lessons of much more sophisticated parties like Mirror's Edge to form a solid title, fully aware of their limitations.

    Downward is a first-person platform made by Caracal Games, where fun and frustration coexist at the same time.
