The EscapistNick MonroeOct 20153.5/5 starsEasy on the eyes and the ears, this game is fun to see and listen to. It could have had more gameplay content though - the journey just ended too soon.

SoftpediaAndrei DumitrescuOct 20157/10Animal Gods feels incomplete in many ways, an experience that showcases some intriguing gameplay and a unique world but fails to flesh out either of them.

TechRaptorSteven StitesOct 20154.5/10While Animal Gods is beautiful and charming to look at, the gameplay is simple and feels extremely generic.

Cubed3Jordan HurstNov 20152/10Animal Gods is highly representative of a major flaw in the crowd-funding model: namedropping a classic series is practically a shortcut to financial success. Still Games sold its product almost exclusively on its superficial similarity to The Legend of Zelda and the works of Team Ico, so it's not much of a surprise that it doesn't follow through with its ambitions. However, even the most cynical observer would expect more from it than this. This is a vacuous mockery of the titles that inspired it, a boring art project at best, and a $10 insult to the customer's intelligence at worst.

DarkZeroKieffer WilsonOct 20153/10Animal Gods makes me feel empty after completing it in slightly over two hours. The gameplay is completely vacant of anything fun and the story tries to create a world through techniques that just don't work. The art is nice and the music even has a zen-like quality to it but they cannot redeem the frustration that this game provides.
