Majogami Reviews
Majogami is the best Inti Creates game in a while, it turns out. The art direction is stunning, the music and voice-over work engaging, the combat system deep and flexible, and the boss battles riveting. With a crisper narrative, less repetition in the post-game, and greater connectivity between platforming stages and boss encounters, it could have been the best ever.
Despite a slightly tangled narrative and some very uncomfortable sexualisation of female characters, Majogami offers an engaging action adventure that drips imagination and flair. Once you've gotten the hang of combat, prepare for some impressive boss fights.
The game boldly embraces girl battles, complete with dynamic cutaways and iconic “beam struggle” climaxes. If the storytelling were more compelling, this could easily be Inti Creates’ best title to date.

Overall, I enjoyed my time with Majogami, I just feel it could have been better. Though I love the artwork and amazing style Inti Creates always brings to the table, I feel the gameplay was more than a bit jumbled. The simplest way to put it is that sometimes less is more, and I hope that next time, Inti gives us a pure, easy to parse concept with all their usual amenities. Still, those looking for witchy fanservice, gorgeous artwork, surprisingly deep replay value and epic boss battles have a great new adventure in Majogami.
Majogari is a unique and thoughtful game with a deep philosophical story about memory and rebirth. It features surreal art and fast-paced action. While it has some unbalanced battles and requires completing all levels, it's an overall memorable and unique experience.

Majogami isn’t just another 2D action platformer; it’s the result of Inti Creates’ decades of experience with the genre, remade with big goals. It’s one of their best games in years because of its tight gameplay, beautiful art, and smart boss fights.
Honestly, I don't know if I'm overrating the game's overall quality in this text, but the truth is that Majogami entertained me quite a bit. It's not that the game moves mountains or does anything radically different from what we already have in the industry, but the composition of the elements works incredibly well; the combination of fun combat, a unique aesthetic, and captivating characters results in something that's truly worth investing my time in.

Majogami is a decent game with good ideas, but could stand to push the envelope further when it comes to level depth and exploration. The visual style is an absolute treat, and compliments the combat well, while also allowing for some fascinating character designs. However, progression feels hindered by variable difficulty spikes and a necessity for grinding currency to engage more with the variety of combat abilities in the game.
Majogami is a fun, fast-paced romp with a fair bit of replay value. It can get a bit repetitive due to the nature of the main character’s gimmick, but you’re encouraged to finish up each level as fast as possible. And despite the speed of the game, the composition of the visuals makes it easy to distinguish between foes and the direction you’re going to rend unto them. A great action-platformer all around.
