This review is based on a PS4 copy provided by Evolve PR for coverage purposes and is also available on Windows and Xbox One. Eternity: The Last Unicorn is hard to recommend, even if you are craving a game in the vein of Dark Souls. Despite the story being a marvel and the handsome illustrations during loading screens, the fixed camera, clunky combat, and performance issues let this down tremendously. I wanted to love this game, but I just couldn’t. Everything must be read through subtitles, which could be irritating for some players. The graphics look like they belong in an earlier title, and it’s somewhat strange that there is absolutely no voice acting. It felt like a grind, and not the good kind.
ETERNITY THE LAST UNICORN PS4 MANUAL
This was super frustrating and led me to have to backtrack through a lot of the same enemies and landscapes due to the minimal checkpoints and manual saves placed in the game. I also noticed that I would die while still having half of my health bar. This is clearly inspired by Dark Souls, but the clunky combat and poor dodge maneuver didn’t give me the same satisfaction that the Souls games did. The game also froze on me on a few occasions. This makes the game a chore to play, and greatly hinders the experience. So many times it obscured threats, had me stuck on surfaces, and made it difficult to see what I needed to do to solve certain time-sensitive puzzles.

You start off playing as an elf named Aurehen, who is tasked with saving the titular mystical creature. The story of Eternity is fascinating and felt like a mixture of God of War and The Lord of the Rings, pulling from Norse mythology while also being original in its own right. Let’s examine how it fell so short.īefore talking about the many negative aspects of this game, props do need to be given to the writers. Sadly, though, the game itself isn’t as magical as I was led to believe. The footage looked epic, and its RPG gameplay was like a siren call. Watching the trailer for Void Studios ’ Eternity: The Last Unicorn cemented my excitement. Just seeing the title of this game had my inner child squealing (every woman secretly loves unicorns).
