    I really wanted to enjoy this, but it is completely hollow.

    The game play quickly becomes repetitive, switching between characters is done in the least imaginative way possible. The dialogue is clunky -- come to think of it -- the writing in general feels about as smooth as I imagine a five hour ride in square wheeled Canadian car would feel.

    I can't put into words how unpolished the dialogue feels. The "conversations" between characters are so forced and accomplish so little that they could have gone without identifying who is speaking and the game wouldn't really even change at all. Character development is thrown out the window in lieu of just slapping the player of the face with a word bubble.

    The character design is awesome, i love the art style. The level design is awful.

    This game more closely resembles an idea for a game than it does a complete product.    … Expand

    this silly game has been made by a bunch of idiots. The gameplay sucks, the view for the jumping sessions is a pain in the butt.
    And for the record, when you put collectibles in a game, you have to make a select chapter option.

    Do not buy this game, even at 1$

    For those of you with strong attachments to the 80s, Crossing Souls is a sure cure for your nostalgia; for those without, Crossing Souls simply feels like a game that's trying too hard.

    Crossing Souls is a fine game that successfully does what it needs to do, but it does only that. There is much potential in the gameplay that sadly doesn't reach its full potential. This makes Crossing Souls just an average game.

    The story, while wonderfully trope-y, takes time to fully lean into its own absurdity. [March 2018, p.93]
