Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
It is incredibly surreal to see a modern re-release of a Xenosaga game, and I don’t think anyone was ever expecting Pied Piper of all things to get one, considering its status as a lost piece of media that wasn’t fully preserved online until 2025 by fans. Pied Piper is a game made for 2000s mobile phones, and despite the technological limitations, it is a well-presented prequel that will get you immersed in its mature story and world, which is set around 100 years before the events of Xenosaga Episode I: Der Wille zur Macht. Soraya Saga's and Tetsuya Takahashi’s writing in this game is great. You get to see Ziggy’s previous life as Jan Sauer truly fleshed out with his backstory set on planet Abraxas (which you would see glimpses of here and there in episodes I and II). The man Jan is trying to stop, Voyager, is a sadistically menacing villain, and I enjoyed how much of a memorable impact he’s made in the plot. The various pieces of lore introduced in Pied Piper are cool to see, and I like how they connect to the main games. The game’s battle system is similar to episode I’s gameplay. If you liked how the first entry played, then you’ll likely feel at home with Pied Piper’s combat.…23 found this helpful

Xenosaga? In 2026? On Steam?8 found this helpful
Thank you G-MODE for archiving this gem. I wouldn't have thought this was gonna be the first Xeno game to be ported to PC, but I'm not complaining. Hopefully this can be a passage for Xenogears and the rest of the Xenosaga series to be added too.6 found this helpful
Really glad to see at least this part of Xenosaga surface after literally 20+ years of waiting for the entire series to be brought to PC. Hopefully we will see the rest of the series become available later with Xenosaga 1-3, Reloaded, and Xenofreaks.4 found this helpful
