AereA

The game structure seems too simplistic for those who would like to approach the dungeon crawler's tight action for the first time, unable to engage the player with engaging progression and stratified and rewarding gameplay.

AereA is artistically great, but it has some issues with its gameplay. Poor design choices and some bugs are the flaws in a game that is uplifted only by its wonderful soundtrack.

AereA is the same old action RPG, only with musical instruments. The gameplay is far from being original, the visuals are ok, and the idea is nice, but it's not enough to keep you entertained.

AereA has one of the most imaginative game worlds that I've seen in a long time but the overall lack of challenge and crazy amount of glitches make it an ultimately boring yet undeniably irritating experience.

Aerea is too simple and repetitive to be considered a good game. There aren't changes of the rhythm of the gameplay and the game lacks its own identity.

It is too bad that what was good about AereA did not ultimately find a better game in which to reside. It is a bad game, but it is one that does not feel like a soulless cash grab. On the other hand, it is also not a game that stumbles because it is overly ambitious or because it banks on one or two game mechanics that just don’t work. It is a game that sets a low bar for its gameplay and then fails to hurdle it. It is hard to tell what, exactly was the goal of developer Triangle Studios when they developed this game, which is far too simple and repetitive to compete with any action RPG produced in the past 20 years. What is easy to conclude, however, is that AereA is not good, and regardless of your interest level in action RPGs or classical music, you will likely not enjoy it.

Quotation forthcoming.

A severe lack of challenge, an overdose of technical problems, repetitive and uninspired gameplay... Well, the co-op's a bit fun at times, so there's that.
