Qliphah in Providence’s Shadow brilliantly combines gripping Japanese urban horror through VN style, with an incredibly deep, colour-coded, timeline turn-based combat system. Even though there's no traditional detective gameplay, the dark, apocalyptic narrative of Tokyo 2030 remains super intriguing. Paired with a wholly unique, reaction-heavy tactical combat system, this is a niche title that demands your attention.
Read full review ↗Moving beyond turn-based RPGs, real-time combat or hybrid forms of the two, this title attempts to break new ground and shake up the genre with a concept that almost feels like a rhythm game at some points. The developers may have been a bit too ambitious however. A reduction in the number of abilities and tutorials would have probably been better. Yet once players get the hang of it the game offers a rewarding sense of accomplishment. Qliphah in Providence’s Shadow dares to innovate, creating a unique blend of visual novel and RPG featuring a combat system unlike anything I have seen before. Ultimately though a bit more polish and less complexity would have benefited the game in the end.
