    A pyrotechnic, psychedelic treat. [Feb 2011, p.93]

    A relentless game that's only really let down by occasionally stodgy controls and its insane difficulty level. [Issue#200, p.103]

    Neat mechanical twists, six lengthy levels, and boss fights that have you flying instead of stuck on the ground aren't enough to make Mist a great game. It's merely an interesting one, as a lack of detail in the environments and loose-feeling action keep it from excellence.

    Crescent Pale Mist is a very strange game where everything works, but not the best that it could.

    The graphics are moderate, but the controls can be clunky and may prevent you from enjoying the short experience.

    When the best thing your game has going for it is supplemental abilities to support your primary one-button combat, you know you've got problems.

    Sorry, Rockin' Android. While we respect your intentions, we simply can't recommend Crescent Pale Mist. Its overbearing list of frustrations and lacking visuals and sound will leave you feeling red instead of pale.

    Enter at your own risk, for great disappointment awaits many who trespass upon this void.

    I purchased this game because it was created by Rockin' Android, father of Gundemonium Collection. The graphic design of characters is niceI purchased this game because it was created by Rockin' Android, father of Gundemonium Collection. The graphic design of characters is nice anime-style and also encouraged me to buy it, but I expected a lot more regarding gameplay.

    Many locations end up being empty labyrinths, and the combat system does not captivate as much as it probably ought to. Particularly, the movement of your character in boss fights is weak, even though the attacks and the idea of flying while fighting are good points.

    I could not even finish the game (despite trying it more than twice), which I am aware is something I definitely should have done. I just feel Crescent Pale Mist is a pity, as it could have been much better than it is.    … Full Review »
