    A totally unique odyssey that immediately envelops the player in a richly detailed universe ripe with intriguing lore and some of the finest storytelling on PS4, Heaven's Vault is an essential odyssey for all to embark upon.

    All in all, this game was quite fun to play and discover the secrets of the ancient language. I enjoyed the freedom of choice and the flow-on effects of those choices. This is a game for anyone who is interested in adventure games – it definitely would appeal to a wide-range of players.

    Heaven's Vault excels in creating a well-constructed, branching narrative, but expect long sections of it to feel like a slog.

    Heaven's Vault is a bold adventure, based on an interesting concept that would have deserved a more organic and effective realization.

    A fascinating, fantastical world let down by plodding pacing.

    Heaven’s Vault will satisfy budding archaeologists and linguistic fanatics in fits and starts, but the overall experience that brings those mechanics together leaves a lot to be desired. Alongside technical frustrations and tedious movement between locations, this is hardly a game we can recommend with any sort of confidence.

The slow pace and linguistically focused gameplay won't be for everyone but the world, is captivating, as are the characters who bring it to life. One of the best things I played this year, hands down… Expand
