The gameplay is praised for its solid, visceral combat and atmospheric storytelling through mechanics rather than exposition, with dynamic gesture-based spellcasting adding depth. However, some frustration arises from inconsistent enemy mechanics, such as unblockable boss attacks that clash with the intended combat style. Additionally, the game is noted as mechanically simple and somewhat lacking in item and spell variety.
- “Really like the combat mechanics, they feel solid and visceral.”
- “Rather than overwhelming players with exposition, Crossings relies on atmosphere and mechanics to convey its identity, allowing the environment and combat to tell their own story.”
- “Spellcasting introduces a dynamic layer to combat through gesture-based mechanics.”
- “Edit: I don't know what the point is to introduce the blocking mechanic when you make all the boss attacks for the troll boss unblockable.”
- “Having to turn my back and sprint away from the boss when he wheels up an attack is antithetical to the sort of gameplay promoted by the systems.”
- “Mechanically, it's relatively simple, and I could say it lacks variety when it comes to items and spell upgrades.”
