  Redemption Reapers offers a bland story with fun gameplay at its core. The lack of variety in said gameplay, however, can make the journey overstay its welcome. This makes it a good experience for people who are looking to kill some time on a basic experience, but gamers that are looking for a fulfilling story or dozens of hours of unique gameplay should look towards some other titles in the genre. As a whole, the game offers a few hours of fun before it ultimately loses its edge.

  Redemption Reapers did not live up to the expectations of a cool genre twist from Binary Haze I was expecting. Instead, I feel like I received a fairly by the book SRPG with a couple of decent ideas, but ultimately feels rushed. The team dynamic is a cool strategy addition, but the balancing of everything else and lack of features like not being able to zoom out the battlefield, make this feel rushed.

  Overall, Redemption Reapers has a sound combat system that isn’t strategically interesting in the early game and a story that never grabbed me. Things start to pick up by the mid-game, but many players won’t be willing to give the game time to redeem itself.

  The tactical RPG Redemption Reapers doesn’t have any serious issues, but it does suffer from the little death of a thousand paper cuts. With a few minor adjustments, this could be a really good game. As it stands, it’s just an OK game with a very good soundtrack.

  The lack of fleshed-out character personalities, the bland and uninspired storyline, and the drab character designs make it difficult to make the player care about seeing the story through to the end. This could have been easily resolved by ensuring that the gameplay was addictive, but apart from a handful of interesting ideas, Redemption Reapers’ battles turn out to be sluggish affairs. The game’s difficulty curve feels like it’s reversed, as the game’s latter half is easier than the opening stages.

  While the dark atmosphere, gorgeous visuals, and haunting soundtrack are promising, and while the combat mechanics have some real potential, the balancing issues, difficulty spikes, poor AI, and flat storytelling simply bog Redemption Reapers down too much.
