Critic Reviews for Wrath: Aeon of Ruin
KillPixel's shooter demonstrates breathtaking ambition in its 3D level design, but that can come at the cost of pacing and fun.
Despite some rough edges that risk making it unsuitable for newcomers to the genre, WRATH: Aeon of Ruin is among the best boomer shooters around today, especially if you love open levels and exploration.

If you approach Wrath: Aeon of Ruin with no expectations beyond a violent way to kill a few hours, then there is fun to be had.
King Quake is alive, and WRATH: Aeon of Ruin is here to prove it to us. Credit to KillPixel who has been able to create very labyrinthine maps full of secret rooms, hordes of enemies that not only count on numerical superiority but also have an intelligence that guides them to surround us and take us from behind, and a series of weapons that really give the impression of doing harm. The only drawback is a certain woodiness in the controls, especially when using the dash in the air to jump farther. Know that it's a very difficult game, and advancing will be a challenge, but isn't that exactly how boomer shooters should be?

Wrath: Aeon of Ruin's gunplay is tight and fast-paced, but it doesn't stand out with mediocre level design, low enemy variety, and overall aesthetic.
While Wrath: Aeon of Ruin might give off the impression that it's just another boomer shooter in a market already well-past saturation, it manages to forge its own identity by being a throwback to classics of the genre with a flair of its own. And of course, the incredible level design and gunplay go a long way in making the game incredibly fun. The only real downside is that, for its wild settings and visuals, the weapons never really break the mold of classic shooter archetypes.
Wrath not only looks, but feels like a game from the past. It can entertain fans of the genre, but it will not surprise them in any way.

Despite being stuck in development hell for years, Wrath: Aeon of Ruin more or less achieves what it meant to and poses itself as a history course for the FPS genre by taking the older gamers to the past and bringing the past to the newer gamers.
