Critic Reviews for Umurangi Generation
Reviews
Chan Khee Hoon (GameSpot)
9/10
“An acute reflection of recent crises, Umurangi Generation is an excellent glimpse into a dystopian future that’s looming all too close.”
Eric Layman (Digital Chumps)
9.5/10
“Umurangi Generation’s vibrant ambience validates the rebellion of its doomed youth culture. It also renders the player a transient witness to a surging tragedy. Umurangi Generation’s key is its camera, as it allows its protagonist and its player the agency to access and capture a world beyond their control. It creates a vantage point untended since Jet Set Radio, and Umurangi Generation didn’t even need skates or spray paint to get there.”
Pat Cotter (Gaming Fyx)
4/5 stars
“Umurangi Generation is a stirringly unique look at the end of the world. It’s a creative toolbox that presents you with an endless stream of inspiration. It’s a story that resonates deeply with the world we live in. It’s a damn good video game, and you should play it.”
