Genesis Noir will take you on a unique adventure from the dawn of time. The art style, music and the nice blend of how the world influences the music at times do a lot to enhance the scenes. The unorthodox approach to puzzles and challenges work well for a while but over time it starts to feel a little pointless and irrelevant.

Critic reviews
- Genesis Noir’s gorgeous graphics may be mostly in black and white, but its cosmic journey through Earth’s past is anything but, though at times it’s a little too convoluted to be as ingenious as it could have been.
- 5.0Genesis Noir is a very cool, very interesting and exceptionally well-presented game. It tells its esoteric story in an effective, exciting way with a litany of memorable visuals, fantastic artwork and a genuinely brilliant soundtrack. And, unfortunately, we simply can't recommend playing this compromised, ill-fitting, arduous and glitchy Switch port in the slightest.
- Genesis Noir is a church for the religious and non-religious alike, and a spiritual experience worth undertaking at any price. Will you traverse time and space for the one you love? Or will you find love among the cosmos along the way? Genesis Noir knows the answer — find out by pursuing this mesmerizing journey on console or PC.
- 7.5Even with these foibles, I still really dug the majority of Genesis Noir. The fantastic presentation made it easier to forgive some of the repetition and bugs, and for all the grandiose nature of the story, it was still interesting to follow and piece together. It could probably be completed in one or two sittings, so if you’re up for something a little different, I’d definitely recommend checking out Genesis Noir.
- Genesis Noir isn’t a terribly long game, taking only about two to three hours to complete, but it’s definitely a worthwhile experience. This game was not at all what I was expecting, but in a good way. It is definitely not your run-of-the-mill noir drama.
Gamer reviews
Genesis Noir
I didn't understand the story in this game, maybe I was just being stupid, idk. But I did still enjoy the relaxing, seemless gameplay. The games pretty, it was fun getting all the achievements as well. I would recommend this game to anyone who wants to experience a video game that is most probably not like one they have played before. It's cool, quirky, intresting. Still don't get I ended up flying around the screen making loads of colours though haha.
Is it pretty? Incredibly. Is it enjoyable? Nope.
