Critic reviews
- 8.0Auro is tough going at times, especially early on when you’re still figuring things out, but it’s certainly rewarding. Every level feels suitably different, offering a new challenge and ways to approach things, and it’s quite intoxicating for the strategy fan. While it might look a bit old fashioned, that belies a distinctly old school (in a good way) feeling. It should keep you hooked for a long time to come.
- 7.0Auro is based around a fantastic concept, and its visuals and writing are a lot of fun. It has the potential to rule over the strategy game genre on mobile. It just needs some grooming first.
- It may be slightly more demanding up-front than a Tetris sure, but show it a fraction of the forbearance given to an RPG or a 4X game and you’ll be entranced by a beautifully efficient design that makes the player feel like some arcane trickster genius.
- 9.0Auro is to puzzler fanatics what Aeros are to chocoholics. Old school, addictive satisfaction served up in a (minty) fresh package.
