Top Critic
From start to finish, Devotion is an excellent psychological horror game full of surreal imagery, creepy dolls, and wonderful environmental storytelling.
Top Critic
An insidious, combat-free horror escapade that works marvels in a tiny space - and an intricate portrait of family and superstition
Top Critic
One of the best survival horror games of the generation, that's frequently terrifying but also surprisingly nuanced and intelligent when it comes to its storytelling.
Top Critic
Devotion is beautiful and mesmerizing, contorting mundanities into menaces.
Top Critic
Set within the modest confines of a Taiwanese apartment in the 1980s, Devotion paints a terrifying picture of family life with nuanced storytelling and an insidious atmosphere.
Top Critic
Devotion is a prominent project that clearly shows how Eastern horrors differs from Western ones. Red Candle Games successfully inflate the atmosphere, offering powerful plot twists, personal stories through letters and memories, nice graphics and unexpected scenes. Music and sounds are the cherry on the cake.

Feeling like a successful meeting between Silent Hill 2 and what Remains of Edith Finch, Devotion is magnificiently written and disturbing experience. A fantastic, scary, immersive first-person horror journey that you can jump in unquestionably.

Top Critic
Overall, Devotion may prove disappointing for anyone hoping for the next big Indie Horror game, as the moments where the game forgets itself and tries to adhere to traditional horror tend to be the weakest points.
Top Critic
Devotion is a story about a deeply personal tragedy made both more horrific and familiar with its carefully recreated 80s setting of a Taiwanese household that successfully draws on the feelings of nostalgia of its target audience.
Top Critic
Devotion feels like "one step forward, two steps back" in comparison with Detention, previous (and brilliant) work of Red Candle Games.
