Good ideas that fail to materialize. That's the summary of this title, that ends up being simple and repetitive. It has some positive things, but it won't keep us playing for too long.- Vandal

Completely unrelated to Silent Hill and horror, an acceptable dungeon crawler with many hours of combat ahead. Recommended for those who want a game to play online, since its multiplayer is the key to make the most of it.- Vandal

This isometric survival horror title impresses with its striking comic-book aesthetic and 1980s atmosphere, although it ultimately falters in execution. Despite having veterans from the Bloober Team involved, the project suffers from technical inconsistencies and a lack of polish (no pun intended). The core crafting and stealth mechanics show promise, yet the final product feels unrefined and frustratingly clunky.- Vandal

It's a good way to see what the console is capable of, but it's too expensive for the amount of content or the hours of fun it offers. Actually, it would've been an amazing addition for free with the console, since it feels more like a tech demo than a proper, almost full-price game.- Vandal

Reynatis fits the profile of an RPG that Furyu and other developers have found as a niche: stories with anime influences, some curious points in the gameplay –the combat has its spark- and an approach that, for better or worse, takes us back to the role-playing game designed two decades ago. It is not necessarily a negative thing, after all there are plenty of RPGs from that era that are more fun than today's blockbusters, but the irregular execution is a problem that ends up subtracting many from the evaluation. It is not Furyu's best game, and it is certainly far from that Versus XIII that many of us imagined in 2006.- Vandal
