Subjectively speaking, I absolutely adore this game. Objectively, however, it’s far from perfect. All-in-all, The Caligula Effect: Overdose is a unique JRPG with a captivating story enveloped in the fragility of human psychology, but tends to fall a bit flat when it comes to actual gameplay. Its decision to move to the PS5 also still baffles me. Still, I’d recommend playing it if you’re interested. And, hey, I guess you can play it on the modern PlayStation platform of your choice, too!

An interesting story, an entertaining combat system, a sublime soundtrack and slightly outdated graphics; all this is what we will find in The Caligula Effect Overdose.

As someone who lacks a basis for comparison, Overdose is a bit on the overwhelming side when it comes to the story… and honestly most of it felt a bit nonsensical to the point I only peripherally paid it any attention...
