    The game starts well, but that impression quickly collapses for one of the worst games ever made.

    Secound, the bosses. From the middle of the game, the bosses are simply very poorly designed, and the battles go from being fun to just frustrating.

    Third, the story. It is shallow but acceptable. But due to the previous two factors, it simply fails to give you a reason to continue playing.

    From it's middle forward, this game fails to be fun. A pity.    … Expand

    When a title shows off obvious influences one hopes that it will rise above them, but Anima: Gate of Memories isn’t fit to shine its influences’ shoes. Its fundamentals are shoddy, and its characters and narrative are a bore. Anima never executes anywhere near the level its considerable ambitions demand.

    Anima: Gate Of Memories is probably one of the worst experiences I’ve had on PS4 so far. Boring combat mixed with unlikable and frankly sexist characters, give me no real reason to recommend this game to anyone. Avoid.

    On the gameplay side, the camera can be tough to maneuver, and platforming sections can be frustrating. However, the game works as a third-person action RPG with the skill trees, items and secrets.
