What players think
The recurring themes across 72 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
On the one hand the game presents itself as one with 'moral dilemma situations' but on the other hand you have outright silly looking characters and some sound effects that sound like farts.
Throughout your journey you will come across certain situations where you’ll have to make a tough choice, which is often related to you deciding someone’s fate, a decision which causes a ripple effect by making certain characters trust you and others want you dead, leading to different story threads and boss-fights, a quality that adds an interesting element of replayability to the game (aka, two playthroughs).
Gameplay in Aestik revolves around exploration, combat, and progression through the acquisition of ability runes.
Visuals were also very aesthetic (heh) to me, and environments had great parallax.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway.
