Utawarerumono: Prelude to the Fallen Review – A Path to Peace

What brings you to a game and keeps you playing? Is it the gameplay that captivates you? Is it seeing how your actions influence, and maybe even save, a whole world? Could it come down to falling in love with a story and the people you’re working alongside? Utawarerumono: Prelude to the Fallen places people in something of a precarious position. It’s a game where…

  • Story is well thought out, complete with plenty of twists and turns
  • Characters are compelling and it is easy to find yourself caring about them
  • 2D character portraits and CGs are gorgeous
  • It's very well-paced
  • You can choose which soundtrack you would like.
  • Strategic battles can feel like a tedious, simplistic chore
  • Can feel like you don't have enough options to arrange and prepare characters for fights
  • Some battles and 3D character models can feel a bit plain or generic
