    By the same guys that made the terrible game The Surge this is just a cut and paste of all games done badly.

    Puzzles. PUZZLES! Why does nearly every action/adventure game seem to think it needs them? The control of your character in this game feels nice and responsive after you get used to it. Unfortunately, I got stuck on a puzzle room immediately after leaving the tutorial area, and was never able to get past it, so puzzles completely ruined this game for me.

    I only need two things from action/adventure games: good combat and fun exploration. If I'm constantly getting stuck on puzzle rooms, and have to stop playing the game to go look up how to solve each puzzle to move forward, the game has stopped being fun, and I'd rather just not play it any more. Super frustrating, because I liked the combat in this one.

    Stop with the damn puzzles in this kind of game. That goes for every developer out there. If I wanted to play a puzzle game, I WOULD'VE BOUGHT ONE! Let action/adventure games be action/adventure games. UGH.    … Expand

    CrossCode is an ambitious title, has a strong style that fans of this type of RPG will appreciate, and the combat is great. Unfortunately, the lack of a compelling narrative and loads of filler made it an experience that didn’t convince me to play to the end.

    CrossCode is without a doubt one of the best RPG titles we’ve seen this year, marrying 90s JRPG nostalgia with modern gaming sensibilities to create an exceptional experience. Whether it’s the stellar combat, ingenious puzzle design or lush and vibrant world, there’s plenty to keep you coming back to CrossCode throughout its lengthy story.

    There is a lot to love in this indie RPG, with a wonderful level of detail. It’s just a shame that it has only the bare bones of a plot, and some MMO tropes that should have been cut.
