It's one of the most predictable, uninspired, and underwhelming action RPGs you'll likely ever come across. There is a certain level of cozy comfort that comes with that, but all in all, this is not worth your time or money."

Blood of Mehran is a bit of a throwback, taking its inspiration from games a couple of generations back. The foundation has been put in place, but Blood of Mehran is a distinctively average eight hour experience with combat not reaching the levels it could, voice acting that could be better, and various performance issues that need addressing.

Blood of Mehran has all the right bones for what a game of this type should be, and it plays fine, but it's one that unfortunately never truly impresses.

Blood of Mehran unfortunately lacks its own independent identity. The game wanders between an Eastern epic narrative and an imitation of Western formulas, and ultimately does neither well. There is no fresh approach to the game's story, no gameplay, and no cohesive visuals. The result is a game that could have been distinctive and respectable, but remains only a shadow of its potential.

An adventure that is unintentionally comedic at best, and downright broken at its worst. Some fun moments during combat do shine through, but without some much needed updates, this is one to steer clear of.

This desert revenge adventure loses its way in the heat and the bloodlust. Whiplash inducing story inconsistencies, mind-numbing combat and stealth, alongside a complete lack of real exploration cause Blood of Mehran to suffer a fate worse than death - exile into a barren and unending trial of tedium. At least the landmarks are nice.

Blood of Mehran lands squarely in the mid card table with a 5 out of 10. The game’s heart is in the right place, but with shallow storytelling, repetitive combat, and a lack of originality, it’s a faint shadow of greater epics that came before.

Blood of Mehran attempts to recapture the glory of the golden age of linear action games, but it stumbles between ambition and reality. The game has a charming artistic vision and a haunting soundtrack, but weak combat, poor technical performance, and a mediocre narrative make it an incoherent experience. There are moments of promise, but they are lost amid incomplete design and limited polish. It's an ambitious project with sincere intentions, but it needs updates and a recalibration to reach the level its artistic vision deserves.

Poor combat and stealth only serve to highlight the rest of the issues with Blood of Mehran, and far too soon does it become a slog to play rather than the epic Arabian adventure it could have been.

Blood of Mehran feels like a pale imitation of far better action-adventures, and a lazy imitation at that. Good visuals can't make up for sub-par mechanics, linear level design, or an uninspired story which doesn't seem to have any real reference to "The Arabian Nights."

If you want a bland but playable adventure title, Blood of Mehran will be for you. As you traverse different environments, you will experience a feeling of Deja vu. This wouldn’t be too bad, but the Groundhog Day gameplay and dull action will not inspire you to keep playing. Though it wasn’t for me, you can grab your copy from the Xbox store!
