The balance between the visual novel elements and the action RPG gameplay allows CRYMACHINA to be a thought-provoking experience.
WTMG's Fernando da Costa: "I couldn’t keep from being enthralled with the mystery and wanting to know what would happen next. What helps is the gameplay structure and how it’s perfect for a pick-up-and-play approach. I do wish it conveyed a few features more concisely, like a single piece of equipment able to be worn by all three girls. Regardless, this game is easy to suggest, and with a stellar performance on the hybrid, get it anywhere."
VGChartz's Thomas Froehlicher: "An outstanding achievement in terms narrative, sound, world, and character design, Crymachina is a fitting representative of "video games as art". Yet Furyu's recent creation also excels in gameplay thanks to a very fast-paced control scheme, and the right level of challenge that makes it deliciously addictive. It's still an AA game, so it does have its shortcomings and limitations, but I can now finally say I've found the new gem I've been craving since the original The Caligula Effect."
Welcome to FURYU Corporation’s Crymachina, a high-concept science fiction story populated only by post apocalyptic, generously proportioned, robotic high-school girls that spend their free time talking about their feelings. So have a seat as we talk about deep existential concepts like: “Will they ever stop talking?” or “Why is there a space whale?” and “Where did Erik hide the Jamison?”
