    Aaah, Pandoras Tower. Finally I thought, one of the few games that wasn't a first person shooter.As I walked into the shop and bought the game my brain went all fuzzy as I brushed the lower part of my torso, I had a warm feeling inside me as I inserted the game into my console and started the game.My brother then proceeded to shout "Alien Paedophiles" as he watched Cowboys and Aliens. IAaah, Pandoras Tower.

I told him to shut up and started my intense journey through Pandoras tower. When I finished the game I went and watched Cowboys and Aliens. I then watched some porn and felt that this was a slightly more satisfying experience than Pandoras Tower. The game just doesn't have enough to make me feel like I truly invested my valuable time in to. If only they had spent a little more time on this. But if you like JRPGS then you may want to pick up this game amid a market of similar games… Expand

    I was quite disappointed in the game, I mean, the tralier was pretty cool, but all the game really is that of a crappy version of Zelda with some rpg elements, its not that bad, but its not great.

    Honestly, it reminds a lot like Drakengard series. The action combat is not terrible, but there is room for improvement. It is repetitive, but not the fun type of repetitive like Orochi Warriors, God of War, or Kingdom hearts.

    Story is great though, although very depressing. Lastly, some people might not like the difficulty curve that comes with it.

    Es excelente, pero el bug que impide avanzar arruina el ritmo del juego y eso suponiendo que puedas evitar que se siga trabando. Además ocurre justo cuando la historia comienza a desvelarse y ponerse más interesante.

    El juego es muy bueno lo único malo es que se vuelve un poco repetitivo por el tema de las torres

    Pandora's Tower is loaded with interesting concepts, but it fails to pull them through an entire playthrough in a sustainable, engaging way.

    Pandora's Tower is an enjoyable RPG, and if the Affinity thing wasn't involved, I'd easily put this up to the ranks of four stars and beyond. There's a lot of exploring to do, puzzles to solve, and great action that requires serious thinking. The gameplay as well as the presentation are top-shelf. If you can put up with Elena, in either form, you'll find this to be a great action adventure title.

    Much like Elena in the throes of disfiguration, Pandora's Tower is imperfect, but begging to be loved.
