Oct 24, 201190It's a very fun game but it requires an open mind.
-
Dec 1, 201185It shouldn't work, but it's most certainly a triumph. [Issue#212, p.103]
-
Nov 26, 201180Small frustrations and a wonky camera keep an otherwise stylish RTS-lite from being brilliant, but Eufloria is one of the more interesting strategy titles. [Holiday 2011, p.85]
-
Oct 18, 201180Originality is the hallmark of a great game and while Eufloria has its flaws – it's rather repetitive due to a lack of variation – it more than makes up for it with its unique premise and ditto execution.
-
Oct 7, 201180It may look unassuming, but beneath its well-crafted RTS-lite design, Eufloria speaks to a much more powerful message than many games attempt. It subtly explores the very basic themes that RTSes take for granted, and asks players to find that meaning. In that, it's extremely successful.
-
Oct 8, 201176Eufloria is an ambitious game in constant search of a way to properly engage the player.
-
Oct 17, 201175Clear, calm, yet demanding: Eufloria's gameplay is simply convincing. A lot of love went into this game, whose only shortcoming is the lack of a multiplayer option.
-
Dec 29, 201172Conquer, travel from comet to comet and rule the universe while destroying viruses. Quite original, but not enough depth to keep you entertained for days on end. [Nov 2011, p.98]
-
Oct 13, 201171Eufloria is a great concept that just feels a little undercooked.
-
Jan 31, 201270Eufloria is a basic strategy game that can be both frustrating and entertaining. The overall simplicity might not be enticing for more seasoned fans of the genre, and the slow pace will prove maddening to those expecting more action at a faster pace.
-
Dec 3, 201170Only cumbersome controls steer[] this shy of a more eufloric score. [Christmas 2011, p.109]
-
Nov 2, 201170Eufloria brings a much-needed minimalist take on the 'RTS' genre and does so quite well.
-
Oct 6, 201170It has a look all its own, and the dreamy, ambient score would make for great mood music in an opium den. It is, however, hindered by its controls and a lack of gameplay variety, which doesn't much evolve over its 10 hour campaign.
-
Oct 5, 201170Eufloria offers a unique real-time strategy experience that stumbles just shy of greatness.
-
Oct 5, 201170This soothing strategy title's mellow vibe and simplistic visuals make it a neat downloadable distraction, but some frustrating quirks keep it from greatness.
-
Oct 4, 201170An interesting, and often enjoyable game that could have been so much more. It's evocative visuals and haunting soundtrack make it a true sensory delight and the design concept behind it -- a mellow, minimalist RTS with an arboreal motif -- is inspired stuff. That's why its shortcomings, including abundant downtime and no multiplayer support, feel so frustrating.
-
Nov 22, 201165Eufloria is a really weird RTS which will appeal especially newcomers to the genre. It's easy to play but becomes very challenging later on and its hypnotical visuals are refreshing and fun. However, the lack of depth and erratic difficulty can be frustrating as much as the terrible control system.
-
Oct 6, 201145Eufloria is a frustrating experience because of how good it could have been and it's even more frustrating because criticism of the first version hasn't been properly addressed. It has some great, fresh mechanics and they mostly work, but it just isn't satisfying or engaging in the end.
