Thumb CultureNov 20245/5 starsI have been following the development of Death of the Reprobate for a while now, eager for more Renaissance silliness in my life. This could have easily been a disappointing game. After all, aren’t the third games in a series infamous for being terrible? But, praise be it wasn’t. Whilst I played through the game, my partner was sitting on his computer and would periodically look over bemused, as I sat at my PC snort laughing at something utterly ridiculous. Usually, this was due to a swear word in pretty script whilst a character was doing something equally vulgar. A true gift. So, what can I truly say to summarise the game? The storyline is funny. The art is pretty. The classic music is catchy. Altogether they create a juxtaposition of perfect absurdity. I have no other choice than to award Death of the Reprobate the Thumb Culture Platinum Award.

GamingTrendOlivia DaviesDec 202490/100Death of the Reprobate is a delightfully devilish narrative experience that has you gasping with laughter at every interaction. The game forgoes challenge in order to provide the player with a seamless experience which is to its merit, but could do with a little less hand holding. Despite this, you really do want to stop and smell the roses when you play this game as its artstyle is a wonder to behold, and a bit yucky in other places. Its quirky characters and its use of the renaissance is unique and accessible to any player that doesn't have a degree in art as it prizes itself in how fun of a time you'll have with it.

Checkpoint GamingOmi KoulasNov 20248.5/10Death of the Reprobate is genuine highbrow buffoonery. With its biting satire, intuitive gameplay, and Renaissance style, Richardson has once again proven he can make profound statements about human nature while making us laugh at our own pettiness. Though it bears the common afflictions of the point-and-click genre, it nonetheless endures as a splendid finale to the Immortal John Triptych.

Maximum UtmostZoey HandleyOct 20257/10I’m just here to tell you that The Procession to Calvary is the strongest. Four Last Things is in between. Death of the Reprobate is the weakest. Not by a measurable amount. In fact, based on this site’s rating system, all the games are getting the exact same rating, that’s how consistent they are in quality. But I’m a millennial. I was raised with the internet, and on the internet, we like ranked comparisons, so there it is.
