Game RevolutionTyler TreeseAug 20194.5/5 starsIt isn’t often that a game truly succeeds as art, but every part of Oninaki goes back into its core motif and that’s why it is an essential action RPG.

Nintendo EnthusiastAug 20199/10On the surface, Oninaki might seem like a rough-around-the-edges action RPG lacking depth to its combat alongside an anime-inspired melodramatic story.
