In its released state, Enotria: The Last Song is clearly unfinished, with a lot of work and even more polishing necessary to be considered "complete".

Italian folklore makes for a unique setting, but Enotria lacks the smooth combat and smart mechanics you'd look for in a decent soulslike.

Enotria: The Last Song impresses with fun combat and stunning visuals, but a few technical issues and occasionally frustrating mechanics hold it back.

Enotria: The Last Song has fun combat and its sun-drenched environments are a breath of fresh air in the genre, even when the unapproachability of its RPG systems prevent it from taking center stage.

I found myself circling bosses, trying to back them against a wall so my PC didn't have to render the scenic view on the other side of the arena.

The thing that sets Enotria: The Last Song apart from other games in its genre is that it's set in a theater-fantasy version of Italy.

A strong PC debut from Jyamma Games and a delightful Soulslike palette cleanser to chase down Shadow Of The Erdtree with.

The Last Song is a Souls-like experience that takes a lot of big swings, and while there are a few hiccups along the way, many of these risks pay off.

Despite some flaws (even significant ones) that we hope future updates can resolve, Enotria: The Last Song proves to be a souls-like game with a distinct personality, both in its artistic and environmental characterization and in its gameplay, which has several well-conceived ideas. Not everything shines as we had hoped, but if there's one thing the game doesn't lack, it's courage.

Enotria: The Last Song is a work that stands out for its visual beauty and thematic originality, but that fails to reach the necessary level of execution in its gameplay. The mask system, although innovative, is not well balanced, and the combat, an essential pillar in any Souls-like, is weighed down by imprecise controls and mechanics that limit the player's freedom. The narrative, while intriguing, fails to develop coherently, leaving the player with more questions than answers.

Enotria: The Last Song’s delightful setting, theatre-infused narrative, and mechanical depth help it stand out from the very crowded Soulslike landscape. On the flip side, that depth translates to sometimes poorly explained, unnecessary-feeling complications. Strip all that away, and Enotria: The Last Song is still an enjoyable action RPG that should appeal to almost every fan of the genre.

Summing up, Jyamma Games' Italian soulslike gave us mixed feelings: the sparkling side of the coin is composed of a pleasant plot, a first-rate artistic sector and a valuable sound accompaniment, while the shadier one is made up of design problems related to bosses and a gameplay formula that is not always well balanced.

Enotria: The Last Song is a faithful recreation of the original Souls games with a fresh new coat of Italian paint, and it brings with it enough personality and mechanics to stand on its own two feet. Unfortunately, the experience is held back by performance issues, bugs, and a lack of enemy variety for difficulty.

I commend Enotria: The Last Song for trying to do something different in an oversaturated gamespace, but it just doesn't quite hit the mark. This game needed a lot more time in the oven before being released, but nowadays it's the norm to ship out incomplete messes for a full price anyways right, so what's new?

Enotria is a masterclass in intricate level design. Exploring the dense Italian world is a joy thanks to the unique locales and brilliant dense layouts. The Soulslike inspiration is obvious here, from the bonfire system to the combat, but Enotria differentiates itself enough with its Mask class system. This is a decent Soulslike if you can withstand the bugs and slow combat.

Enotria: The Last Song is a compelling little soulslike which has enough of its own identity to be worth a recommendation, even if not all of its elements individually work as well. The emphasis on the game's melee combat leaves its magic system a little clunky, and despite an impressive amount of flexibility in the game's RPG mechanics, the ability to swap between different loadouts mid-combat wasn't all that useful. Despite these minor drawbacks, the challenging boss fights, gorgeous art direction and fun exploration make this a worthwhile addition to any soulslike fan's library.

Inspired by the classics from FromSoftware, Enotria stands out for its deep connection to Italian folklore, celebrating the natural wonders of our land and its rich cultural, theatrical, and musical traditions.

Enotria: The Last Song is a solid entry to the growing souls-like genre and one newcomers to souls-likes could dive into. Between the various fighting styles, multiple possible endings, and Italian-inspired environment, it's definitely worth a try.

Enoria is a beautiful game full of lore and design spark, but it is let down by clunky combat that ultimately makes the game feel a little dull regardless of your surroundings.

Enotria: The Last Song is a soulslike-style action RPG that manages to get away from being just another copy of great titles. Its unique look with Italian artistic and cultural references, aligned with its gameplay concept of masks, papers and lines, makes the gaming experience unique and necessary for any fan of the genre. A good debut title on consoles for developer Jyamma Games.
