Nintendo Life

There is so much to do!
Exploration is interesting and rewarding with lots of areas that can?t be fully unlocked right away
Village management is both new to the series and really fun
The story is a little edgy and dramatic ? a pleasant surprise!
Beautiful art and smooth gameplay

We wanted a little more challenge at times
If you prefer farming, there isn?t much focus on it

8.8

Nintendo-Town

Plutôt joli?
De la ferme
Des combats
De l?amitié
Un tas de choses à faire
Ils ont pensé à tout pour nous aider côté qualité de jeu (QoL)

? mais on sent que le jeu peine un peu sur Switch 1
Une redondance qui peut s?installer
Un manque de variété de monstres
La partie combat inintéressante
Un peu de tout, mais du coup peu poussé

8.5

Pizza Fria

Add new mechanics and modifications that enhance the player experience.
Taking care of villages is very fun and rewarding.
We can use relics for both combat, exploration, or farm work.
A lot of content to explore
Good entry point for those who want to discover the series or the style of game.

Without subtitles in Portuguese
The villagers can be very ineffective, even if they are placed in the right tasks.
Some characters are not very exciting.

VideoChums

Engaging village-building campaign with exciting action RPG gameplay
Beautiful traditional Japanese setting
Rewarding exploration with lots of collectibles

Placing objects in villages is sometimes frustrating
Some village-building mechanics are cryptic
Platforming portions could be improved

Checkpoint Gaming

Great improvements to farming and combat for immersion
Cultural Japanese influences are seamlessly integrated
Managing four villages adds lots of variety to the world

The tutorial feels like it drags on too long
The story has some repetitive elements

NextN

Graphically, it takes a step forward compared to the rest of its franchise.
Its combat system is both addictive and varied.
Count again with texts in Spanish.

In some situations, the refresh rate can fluctuate.
There are some graphical aspects that still need improvement.

7.5

NerdMovieProductions

New village management, with the possibility to automate agriculture.
The combat system is enriched, becoming even more dynamic and fast.
New artistic direction with a focus on rural Japan...

Unfortunately, technically, the Nintendo Switch has reached its limits.
The advanced stages of the game are less inspired and repetitive.
Another adaptation in Italian is missing again.

7.5

Beyond Gaming

Comfortable, airy, charming carefree
Advanced systems in construction and agriculture
In such a disjointed way that it never gets boring.

Sometimes very long linear sections
Enemies sometimes behave in a strange way.
You cannot go around the gravel.

Well Played

Fantastic story with plenty of narrative content to make the world feel alive
Moreish, cohesive gameplay loop that will keep you coming back for more
An impressive range of decorations and customisation options lets you build your villages into truly beautiful places

Some odd design decisions can disrupt the flow of gameplay
There are a few glitches, omissions, and inconsistencies that aren?t game-breaking but certainly add up over time

TechRaptor

Visuals are a step up from previous Rune Factory games
Fun character events
Full voice acting

Village building is far too simple
Exploration is neutered by small areas and map markers
Story falls apart halfway through
