    tldr; a bad jack of all trades

    The game is trying to do too much. With trying to be a tower defense, town builder, and platformer, it comes in between games that just do it better solo (Mega Man X, Tropico, Crystal Defenders). However, it does make a honest attempt of trying to be good, and it is a spiritual successor to Actraiser. Even though a lot of older fans are saying the OG

    Finally someone who doesn't use pixel art for their nostalgia project! Unfortunately though, SolSeraph is too easy for hardcore players and its tower defense sections are sub-par in their genre. Good boss fights might have saved it, but no luck there.

    Too simple in most of its sections and with a great lack of an unifying element in its gameplay that makes it more satisfying.

    SolSeraph‘s greatest strength is that it’s essentially a new ActRaiser game in 2019 and there is no other game quite like it currently on the market. If that’s enough to grab your interest, then you’ll have a good time with ACE Team’s latest title. However, if you lack the nostalgia for Quintet’s 1990 Super Nintendo game then you will be left with a clunky genre hybrid that feels as dated as the game it is based upon at times. There is no real evolution of the formula going on here, and that is a pretty disappointing aspect considering how far other genres have come in the past 30 years.
