Verdict: Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir is i of those games that I tin dismiss consider every bit a game that had delivered what it had advertised. The overall character starting from the scenario upwards until its bare mechanics is genuinely satisfying. Its shortcomings tends to endure overlooked due to its immersive gameplay as well as its dreaded enticement of "What happens next?" If y'all had played Odin Sphere inwards the past, I'm certain that you'll savour what Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir has inwards store. | 9.2 ◆◆◆◆◆ Overall Score |
