Nov 10, 2020For a title that is both modestly priced and was also developed by just a small team, The Guise is a valiant attempt at making a Metroidvania-esque title in a gaming world packed with similar efforts. It is a visually striking world that is memorable, with an enjoyable but maybe not so complex fairytale story. While the abilities Ogden can collect do mix things up a bit when it comes to combat, the patterns of enemies make things just a little too simplistic, while at the same time frustrations around the fluidity of controlling Ogden increase that. There is some good fun to be had here, and the boss battles are a highlight among a story that is simple but enjoyable. However, it is possibly not a game likely to stick in the mind over other better executed attempts.

Oct 26, 2020The Guise is a charming game aesthetically but is, unfortunately, brought down by its general gameplay loop. If these technical issues could be resolved, The Guise would be slightly easier to recommend. However, considering the majority of the game revolves around this combat and exploration, it does lose some points.
