Crimson Alliance Reviews

A few new reviews for Certain Affinity’s XBLA-exclusive Gauntlet-like hack’n’slash Crimson Alliance have cropped up recently, and we rounded them up for your reading pleasure.

Crave Online, 8/10.

Finally, this game has a ton of potential when considering DLC and I hope the developer makes enough money to justify more content. New dungeons, characters, and weapons would make Crimson Alliance an even better game and could maintain a community well into the future. I had a great time with this game and I look forward to future chapters and other titles from the developer, Certain Affinity.

Piki Geek, 4/5.

Overall, Crimson Alliance is not a bad game by any means, it is in fact a rather enjoyable game, in fact. It just seems to lack some of the finer things that I would expect out of a modern dungeon-crawler. For being so short, I cannot really say that it is necessarily worth the full $15 unless you have three other friends that are willing to shell out the cash or come over to play. $10 is better, but it would have been nice to have access to all classes for that price, rather than $15.

GamerNode, 3/5.

Crimson Alliance may be a “pass” for some gamers. The free-to-play structure is a good start, but forces players to either upgrade each class at 800 Microsoft points each or 1200 points for the All Classes Pack. Add to that the extra cost of future DLC, and this game gets expensive fast, putting into serious question its worthiness of the investment.

And finally, GameTrailers awards it a 6.7/10 in one of their video review pods.
