Critic Reviews
Genesis Alpha One PS4 Review
A unique blend of first-person action, roguelike gameplay and base-building in one package that gets a lot of its ambitious ideas right.

Genesis: Alpha One is a great roguelike for those looking for long methodical sessions. The in-depth simulation shows off great care from the developer but quickly becomes tedious as you try to meet everything's limited conditions at once.

Genesis Alpha One splices the DNA of some good ideas, but doesn’t execute any of them well enough.
