What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Crystal Story: Dawn of Dusk has charming visuals and music with an enjoyable adventure feel reminiscent of games like Undertale and Zelda, but it suffers from significant bugs, limited content (roughly 3 hours), and feels unfinished despite not being marked as early access. Players recommend waiting for future updates and additional chapters before purchasing at full price, as the current offering lacks sufficient depth and polish to justify the cost.
The gameplay isn't that great and it's full of bugs. You can very easily break the game in the mansion level. It should really be listed under early access. The visuals and music are nice and it has a lot of potential but it's not worth the current price. Come back in a few years when its done.3 found this helpful
While I wouldn't like to give a small dev a bed review, the game is very lacking in content and feels VERY early access (like just 1 chapter of a game) and should be marked a such. also, there have been very little in updates in over a year. One day I would like to change this review but for now it will remain as a bad review.2 found this helpful
Such a charming game that really has a mix of undertale, zelda, etc. feel that is so enjoyable to play.1 found this helpful
What is there is a good game but it hardly has 3 hours of content and then it suddenly comes to an end with stupid sequel bait nonsense. I was gifted this game and feel like I paid too much for it.1 found this helpful
Hit a few bugs where I had to reload the game but I was very much looking for a short adventure like this and really enjoyed it. Keen to check out future chapters, well worth a play.1 found this helpful
I play it here and there. Goodest game.
