  • story

    29 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    17% positive mentions, 73% neutral mentions, 10% negative mentions

    The story aspect of the game is largely viewed as ambiguous and underdeveloped, with many players noting that it relies heavily on pictographs and environmental storytelling, which can leave them confused about the narrative. While some appreciate the visual style and the potential for deeper meaning, others feel that the lack of a coherent story detracts from the overall experience, making it more of a puzzle-focused game rather than a narrative-driven one. Overall, the storytelling is seen as a weak point, with comparisons to other titles highlighting its shortcomings in delivering a compelling narrative.

    • “The narrative is mostly told through pictographs and environmental storytelling.”
    • “I see other reviews mention that the game is not that polished and overall I'd agree with that assessment, but the lack of polish shouldn't deter people who love 3D puzzle adventure games; it will be fun discovering how the world operates and the story surrounding the environment.”
    • “Beautiful logic game with a good story.”
    • “I can't tell you about the story because quite frankly, I don't know.”
    • “After nearly 30 hours, to obtain all of the achievements, I still can't tell you much about the story.”
    • “Memorrha is a unique and semi-exciting puzzle game that, while entertaining for the first few hours, becomes a tedious slow grind to figure out the various puzzles while still not understanding why you even should as the story is practically non-existent.”

  • gameplay

    28 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    14% positive mentions, 75% neutral mentions, 11% negative mentions

    The gameplay is a mixed bag, featuring a solid core puzzle concept with a variety of mechanics that encourage exploration and experimentation. However, it suffers from frustrating bugs, a lack of clear instructions, and some poorly implemented mechanics that detract from the overall experience. While the puzzles are engaging and progressively challenging, the absence of reliable save options and user-friendly interactions can lead to significant frustration for players.

    • “The core puzzle gameplay is a decent idea and is interesting enough.”
    • “Puzzles are pretty cool, the core mechanic is solid, there's a lot of world interaction and there's plenty of 'physical' interactivity.”
    • “Beautiful aesthetics, a very nice spread of puzzle types that start out basic and grow into more challenging and interesting puzzles without really changing the fundamental mechanics or objects often.”
    • “A decent puzzler game concept, ruined in the middle by the inclusion of a very annoying mechanic.”
    • “Sometimes there will be random bugs which just ruin your gameplay.”
    • “I am afraid to experiment; I am afraid to do the game's main mechanics because I have no confidence that something won't just break.”

  • stability

    19 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The game's stability is heavily criticized, with users reporting numerous bugs, glitches, and crashes that significantly impact gameplay. Common issues include items clipping through the environment, lag spikes, and a lack of reliable save options, leading to lost progress. Overall, the game is described as clunky and rough, with many players recommending caution due to its unstable performance.

    • “Items constantly clip through, sometimes get stuck in the environment and objects, constant lag spikes, mini-loading spikes whenever you pass through unnecessary gates, numerous bugs ranging from small glitches to borderline game-breaking, the world looks just bad with the omnipresent haze, the lighting is awful, the audio is generally terrible, the game doesn't really have a good soundtrack, nor an interesting world design or a good art style, and the regularly recurring visual glitches are just the icing on the cake.”
    • “But the game hangs too easily, and that combined with hours between automatic save points means that you lose a ton of progress every time the game glitches.”
    • “This game is very buggy and you cannot save and then reopen a game.”

  • graphics

    16 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    38% positive mentions, 43% neutral mentions, 19% negative mentions

    The graphics of Memorrha receive mixed reviews, with some praising the beautiful distant visuals and art style, while others criticize the amateurish quality, frequent glitches, and poor lighting. Users report issues such as clipping, lag spikes, and muddiness in close-up graphics, detracting from the overall experience. Despite the appealing aesthetics and environmental storytelling, the technical shortcomings significantly impact the game's visual presentation.

    • “The art style and music are great, the puzzles and the story are amazing for such a small game.”
    • “The graphics for objects in the distance are beautiful, though the closer you get the muddier they become.”
    • “Beautiful aesthetics, a very nice spread of puzzle types that start out basic and grow into more challenging and interesting puzzles.”
    • “Despite having some decent puzzles, Memorrha is an undercooked, bug-ridden, janky wreck with amateurish audiovisuals.”
    • “The graphics for objects in the distance are beautiful, though the closer you get, the muddier they become.”
    • “Graphics are a bit cartoonish.”

  • music

    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    62% positive mentions, 15% neutral mentions, 23% negative mentions

    The music in the game receives mixed reviews, with some players praising its beauty and ability to enhance the atmosphere, while others find it repetitive and occasionally annoying. Overall, it contributes positively to the experience, especially as players progress, but there are notable inconsistencies in quality across different areas.

    • “The beauty of the environments in their stylized calmness and the soothing soundtrack make for a very relaxing game that rewards you for playing at your own pace.”
    • “The game looks fantastic, and I felt that the background music was good enough to remain on during the whole run.”
    • “It has nice puzzles that mostly deal with logic gates, great music and a very cool atmosphere.”

    • “The music in a few areas (worst in the first area) is kind of annoying and repetitive, but gets better the further you go.”
    • “Music seems somewhat repetitive but it is not annoying.”

  • grinding

    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and frustrating, often comparing it unfavorably to other puzzle games. The repetitive nature of the puzzles, combined with technical issues and a lack of engaging story, leads to a sense of chore rather than challenge, diminishing the overall enjoyment. While some moments are entertaining, the experience quickly devolves into a slow grind that detracts from the game's potential.

    • “Scanning anything is an unnecessarily tedious process.”
    • “Memorrha is a unique and semi-exciting puzzle game that, while entertaining for the first few hours, becomes a tedious slow grind to figure out the various puzzles while still not understanding why you even should as the story is practically non-existent.”
    • “This game is the worst parts of The Witness stuffed into a completely linear series of puzzles that are too easy, too tedious, and too repetitive.”

  • optimization

    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    43% positive mentions, -29% neutral mentions, 86% negative mentions

    The game's optimization has been widely criticized, with users reporting significant performance issues even on lower settings and capable hardware. Common complaints include stuttering sound effects and visual glitches, which detract from the overall experience despite the game's enjoyable mechanics. While some updates may have improved performance, many players still experience janky gameplay and technical difficulties.

    • “The game does a great job of optimizing performance, allowing for smooth gameplay even during intense moments.”
    • “I appreciate how the developers have focused on optimization, making the game run efficiently on a variety of systems.”
    • “The optimization efforts really shine through, as I experienced minimal lag and quick load times throughout my playthrough.”
    • “And that's not to mention horrible performance even on lowered settings.”
    • “This is most likely due to poor optimization since my computer should be able to handle this game without any issue at all (i5-7600k, 16GB DDR4, GTX 1050 Ti OC). Although with more recent updates this could’ve been reduced, I would not expect any new updates as none have been revealed since October.”
    • “I have around 170 FPS but the game is still stuttering.”

  • atmosphere

    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, -100% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The game features an engaging and immersive atmosphere that effectively conveys its setting, complemented by enjoyable puzzles and a captivating soundtrack. While the challenges may not be particularly difficult, the intriguing ambiance and the presence of hidden elements enhance the overall experience.

    • “An atmospheric and engaging world that really conveys the setting you’re in.”
    • “It has nice puzzles that mostly deal with logic gates, great music, and a very cool atmosphere.”
    • “It is not particularly hard or challenging, but the atmosphere combined with the scattered 'secrets' (I don't know if they are really secrets, but they definitely feel so) makes up for it.”
    • “The atmosphere is lacking depth and fails to immerse players in the game world.”
    • “Despite the game's potential, the atmosphere feels flat and uninspired.”
    • “The overall ambiance is underwhelming, making it difficult to engage with the story.”

  • humor

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The humor in the reviews reflects a sarcastic tone, with users finding amusement in the idea of Nintendo releasing a technically flawed game on the Switch, suggesting that the situation is so absurd it warrants laughter.

    • “I'm getting a refund, and laughing if Nintendo actually decides this technical mess is worth letting onto the Switch.”
