Critic Reviews for Clash: Artifacts of Chaos
Clash's brilliantly surreal world is hampered by uncompromising combat and level design.
A spiritual successor to the Zeno Clash franchise, Clash: Artifacts of Chaos preserves and extends those games’ trademark weirdness. Clash: Artifacts of Chaos takes some chances and adds some interesting mechanics to the action game formula. Not everything works, unfortunately, and the game can be striking, engrossing, and frustrating in equal measure. I loved the game’s singular art direction, day/night mechanic, and more, but the combat is a mixed bag. Clash: Artifacts of Chaos is almost, but not quite, worth playing for its art alone.
Clash: Artifacts of Chaos fails to combine its interesting new ideas with contemporary design choices. Which is a shame given how unique the game looks.

Clash: Artifacts of Chaos offers a beautiful new rendition of Zenozoik with suitable fisticuffs against whacky creatures, offset by awfully circuitous traversal and repetitive gameplay.
Clash: Artifacts of Chaos manages to bring fresh air in the face of the countless attempts at innovations within the fever of soulslikes. Its visual identity, atmosphere and narrative gain a prominence that can envy competitors. Unfortunately, the lack of politeness and technical issues end up detracting from the experience.

If Clash: Artifacts of Chaos had at least some kind of waypoints and its gameplay mechanics worked better, it would be easier to recommend it. Unfortunately, it's an unwelcoming game which I try to love but couldn't.

Clash: Artifacts of Chaos is an interesting mix of ideas, most of them familiar, with some unique twists. The hand-to-hand combat focus is good, although it takes a lot of experimentation to do everything right. The world is intriguing and surprising, especially when it comes to character and enemy design.
Beautifully different action game. It's not perfect and there are some things that could be improved, but you will find original elements and interesting moments that are worth it. It's a shame that the various distractions make the game less enjoyable and can be frustrating. However, if you want an unusual combat and action experience, you will definitely get it here.
