  5.0

  We Are The Caretakers is a reminder of just how much work it takes to properly bring something from a cool concept to an actual functioning game. I have no doubt that Heart Shaped Game’s intentions were noble, and their courage to venture into relatively unexplored territory in gaming deserves its due credit.

  I wanted to love We are the Caretakers, the whole afro vibe, the music which is absolutely fire and I was even down with the idea of trying to save the environment. But the bland and boring combat makes We are the Caretakers just a chore to play; none of the attacks are visually pleasing or noteworthy and the animations feel stiff.

  We Are the Caretakers is unique in terms of fictional universe and themes. I know of no other video game that pits players against poachers and puts the preservation of a species so front and center. The experience offers a sense of discovery that I found delightful.

  From presentation to design, it can’t escape feeling as though it prematurely left Early Access. An earnest, spirited vision won’t get you far without stronger execution.

  6.0

  The bugs and crashes keep stampeding through the game, trampling on what was painstakingly constructed. Should the bugs be removed, we’d add at least a half-mark to the score.
