Critic Reviews for Vultures - Scavengers of Death
Vultures: Scavengers of Death masterfully brings together the survival horror and turn-based action genres, losing none of the foreboding feeling while dialling up the tension significantly. A handful of bugs do little to detract from the experience, so Vultures remains a triumph. A bloodied, tense, and foreboding one, but a triumph nonetheless.
Vultures - Scavengers of Death is a worthwhile genre-blending experiment with solid mechanics and strong atmosphere let down by significant technical issues and slavish devotion to its inspirations.
Vultures - Scavengers of Death is a throwback, a game that’s does not shy from telling players that both its universe and its gameplay are inspired by Resident Evil. The shift to a turn-based combat system adds to the complexity, while limited ammo and health create a solid challenge level.
Vultures – Scavengers of Death, my dear friends, was a pleasant surprise and proof that, from time to time, it's worth trying some crazy mixes to see what happens. Even though it has a slip-up here and there, I feel that the title managed to show what it came for and blend well the feelings of the two styles it tried to implement.

Through a well-crafted identity deeply rooted in its inspirations, Vultures - Scavengers of Death proves that developers Mateo and Giovanni delivered an outstanding piece of work, respecting their influences while presenting a fun experience at a time when the revival of horror games is thriving, driven by numerous remakes and original titles. The game not only keeps the genre in the spotlight, but also embraces a highly niche style inspired by tabletop strategy games, strongly reminiscent of the Resident Evil 3: The Board Game by Steamforged Games. The result feels almost like an adaptation of board game mechanics into a digital medium, something exceptionally well executed by Team Vultures.

Vultures - Scavengers of Death is special for the fact that it seems like something that hasn’t really been done before. It neither follows the trends of our times nor relies on spectacle to build tension. Instead, it combines tactical strategy with the feel of classic survival horror. The result is a game that feels unlike almost anything else in the genre.
Vultures: Scavengers of Death is a remarkable debut in the industry for a team made up of only two people.
