Critic Reviews for The Inquisitor
Playing a medieval church cop hunting a vampire is a great concept, but blurry choices, weak combat, and a ton of handholding keep The Inquisitor from leading a compelling inquisition.
The Inquisitor is a grim yet strangely gripping dark fantasy story, memorable if a little rough around the edges.
The Inquisitor is a very curious low-budget project with a fascinating plot. However, the developers overestimated their capabilities and budget constraints.

The Inquisitor fumbles what could have been the premiere mystery game of 2024. Despite the strong setting and cast, the mystery rapidly unravels into nothing but noise, and the gameplay is bereft of difficulty. The never-ending stream of bugs means that whatever joy you can find in the game will most certainly be derailed.
Somewhere deep inside The Inquisitor has traces of great ambition – good voiceovers, motion capture during scenes of fighting, but that’s not nearly enough. The finished product is a game that is not good. It’s as simple as that.

An action-adventure set in the medieval inquisition and with a touch of the supernatural has enough potential. It's a shame that the authors didn't use it.

The Inquisitor has nearly endless potential to be great, but it’s so damn hard to get into the story, even if is based on a set of stories from a Polish author. It’s got a solid base, interesting mechanics, and brilliant voice acting, but the execution seems to need some work, and this detracts from the game in all the worst ways. However, if you have the patience or several shovels of salt, there is some good intrigue to the story that might keep you interested. Sadly, without a major visual and story overhaul, there might not be much hope for this release.
