Restless Soul is a fun game, with great characters and a silly story that is sure to make you laugh. The game is a lot more challenging than the simple retro-looking graphics will make you believe.

While quite often the game's humor is a decent driver to keep exploring the slow pace keeps it from greater success It’s not normal to see a game that mixes elements of classic adventure (with a fair amount of dialogue) with periodic combat that may slow down the pace but features some twin-stick shooting flair, but that feels par for the course for Restless Soul.

Whether or not you vibe with Restless Soul's comedy will entirely determine whether you have a good time with it. I'm growing rather tired of self-referentiality in-game humor, and I also like my jokes to come from real characters, so Restless Soul's comedy didn't entirely work for me. If your sense of humor is different to mine, you may find the comedy more tolerable, and if you do, there's a perfectly agreeable quasi-bullet hell adventure to be had here. The whole experience is rather insubstantial and lacks a solid core gameplay mechanic to hang everything else on, but it's got a lot of heart, and that counts for something. TechRaptor reviewed Restless Soul on PC with a copy provided by the publisher.

It plays well enough, it has a nice sense of style to it, and it doesn’t overstay its welcome in terms of how far its mechanics will go. But if those jokes don’t land for you, know that they will never stop for the rest of the game. Consider how much of a problem that will be for you before wading in. SwitchArcade Score: 3/5 New Releases Temtem ($44.99) I imagine for people who run big franchises, the temptation to reply to complaints with “Well, why don’t you just make your own then?" must be very strong.
