Returnal reviews

What a game. Looks fantastic and makes great use of Dualsense and Tempest engine (if you have compatible headphones like Pulse 3D). Very hard but very rewarding if you stick with it.

Hi it's an unusual game as you die and start over, but advance in the game takes getting use too.

Awesome game and the death loop element is cool. Definitely recommend for anyone who's managed to score themselves a PS5

Ok, I went into this game with the knowledge that it was a rogue lite. But it feels more than that. Every death isn't frustrating, it makes me want to actually play more, and explore more of the planet that I'm marooned on. The Dualsense features are great, everything feels smooth, you forget sometimes that you're in a chair playing a video game. I know it's not for everyone, but it scratches the itch I had after playing Hades and Dead Cells.

Great game in it's own right but doesn't really scratch the roguelike itch. Since each run is probably about an hour on average, you don't really have the classic roguelike “just one more run” feeling. After a long run I opted to take breaks; not really something you expect from a roguelike.

My first time playing a ‘rogue like’ game where you die frequently and cannot save. Once you get the hang of things and over the initial frustration, it is a seriously addictive and amazingly good game. The mechanics, speed and sound of other games feel incredibly slow and clunky after playing this. Game of the year for me.

Just stick with it a while through a couple of Biomes and it will become one of your favorite games!
