    Sinner is basicly all the good bosses from Dark Souls and Bloodborne, without the grinding and with a tactical underlayer. The game will challenge you and your choices. It's a good new and interesting indiegame worth giving a shot!

    This game is a fantastic entry into the souls like genre. It's a challenging boss only game that looks and feels great, the 7 deadly sins concept is fascinating. Does it beat Dark Souls? No. This is an indie game that runs less than $20 and made by a smaller team and I am factoring that into the review. With that said, it is a really good game worth the time if you are a fan of challengingThis game is a fantastic entry into the souls like genre.

With that said, it is a really good game worth the time if you are a fan of challenging souls like games. There's a lot of replay ability due to multiple endings and an endless boss mode. It's perfect for that quick sit down and hopping right into the action. It's also available on Switch which makes that even more accessible to do on the go! Expand

    The Game was Very Interesting. It Took A lil While To Get A Hold Of The Controls Since I Never Played Games Like This But I Beat It I Like It. Took About 6hrs To Beat And Let's Just Say That It Gives You More Of A Reason To Replay It.

    This game is a good example of something extra if you are a Soulsborne fan. Its graphics are good enough and its artstyle is fantastic, gameplay mechanics are great and feel almost as good as dark souls, not perfect but still way better than any souls-like i've played. Most Bosses are really challenging and don't make you feel cheated on, but one or two do have some big flaws in theirThis game is a good example of something extra if you are a Soulsborne fan. Its graphics are good enough and its artstyle is fantastic, gameplay mechanics are great and feel almost as good as dark souls, not perfect but still way better than any souls-like i've played. Most Bosses are really challenging and don't make you feel cheated on, but one or two do have some big flaws in their environment and mechanics(the iceberg, lava and swamp bosses). Gameplay is fantastic, being very similar with souls but unique in its own way, only thing is its short. Music is good while story is not that interesting/well presented. Many people seem to say it's flawed but don't present why in their critics and except for 3 especific bosses this game is really fun for a Fromsoft fan like me. If you're not interested in dying multiple times to a boss then this game is not for you. Plus its a great indie game. Expand

    Good graphics can’t redeem some of the poorer design choices in Sinner: Sacrifice for Redemption. A very, very rough take on the Soulsborne formula, Sinner is really only for diehard fans that are truly desperate for something new to cut their teeth on.

    While it seems like it's missing a lick of paint to make sure that its aesthetics are as strong as its mechanics, it's still a smart step forward and a good example of how we can pay homage to the beloved works of others with originality.

    For such a small indie team, delivering boss fights that can resemble, even slightly, the ingeniousness of From Software’s work is nothing less than highly commendable. Although Sinner can feel a bit bare bones in terms of content it can nevertheless provide a good thrill for boss rush games aficionados or anyone who wants to take part in challenging, albeit fair, battles.
