So, we are already more than a week after the release and it is about time to sum things up when it comes to WTR reviews/scores:) Especially that we know that some of you were waiting for the first scores to see if the game is worth buying (which is ok, we understand that!). Sooooo, let's start!
First of all - look at the METACRITIC! It's nice and green there:) https://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/we-the-revolution
Secondly, please check the graphic above - the most important French🇫🇷 media already reviewed WTR with absolutely great scores! Not to mention that we have been announced one of the best games released in March by French gaming no1 Jeuxvideo. French media giant Konbini named We. The Revolution one of the best games of last week and featured it on main site. Excited!
But our game is appreciated not only in France. Here's few worldwide reviews with quotes and great scores for you:
RAGEQUIT (Greece, Metacritic) - 95/10 "A profoundly atmospheric and virtuosically written exploration of the embattled male psyche. Uncompromising and fearless in its vision, We. The Revolution immerses and transports in a way that very few games ever achieve. An unforgettable, must-play experience."
THE INDIE GAMES WEBSITE (USA, Metacritic) - 90/100 "We. The Revolution confidently handles a wide range of complex gameplay mechanics, setting them against a powerful backdrop. Thematically and gameplay wise, everything works. Some systems are more enjoyable than others but they all have their place, taking you on a bloody, morally bankrupt journey that asks difficult questions and makes you live with your answers."
EUROGAMER (UK) - "Recommended" (Eurogamer doesn't score games anymore, so recommendation means they really liked the game:)
"We. The Revolution is a fascinating and provoking descent into a judge's buckled shoes during the French Revolution."
WELL PLAYED (Australia) - 8/10 "We. The Revolution is up there as one of the most unique experiences of the year."
HISTORIA GAMES (France, History & Games recommendations) - 9,5/10 "The game is even more interesting than expected: the player is immersed in the French Revolution and in the exercise of justice, with all the questions that this raises."
DESTRUCTOID (USA, Metacritic) - 75/100 "If you're in the mood for something that really transports you to the tumultuous time of the French Revolution then I don't think you will find a better way there."

We. The Revolution puts players in morally ambiguous situations in which there are no obvious solutions, and the decisions they make are never clear cut. The power over human life and death is a heavy burden and having responsibility andstrength will be tantamount when making decisions that can affect the fate of therevolution.
