- Arrog is a small step into the world of game-making for a new developer, showing promise for future projects. The visuals and sound design are already great, and while the storytelling might need some work, we can see interesting themes are present. It’ll be exciting to see what’s next for this studio.
Jessica · Feb 28, 2021 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - I fully expect this game to be snapped up by trophy collectors looking for an easy platinum, but I sincerely hope that everyone who purchases Arrog appreciates the experience as much as I. If you have a few dollars burning a hole in your PSN wallet, consider using them to pick up Arrog. I really want to see more from Hermanos Magia in the future.
Annette Polis · Feb 08, 2021 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - If you're looking for a truly one-of-a-kind adventure, don't mind a short runtime, and want to meet some ethereal capybaras, this ticks all those very specific boxes.
Stephen Tailby · Feb 06, 2021 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - I know this is a concise review by HPP’s standards, but to say much more would spoil what’s already a very bite-sized offering. What I can say with certainty, though, is that I’ve been playing video games for about 35 years, and until now, I’d never played anything quite like Arrog.
Francis DiPersio · Feb 04, 2021 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - It's ultimately hard to recommend Arrog. As much as it seems committed to a specific vision, it doesn't do a good job at communicating what that vision is. And, just as it feels like you're digging at what it has to say, the game ends. There is beauty in Arrog, for sure, but without the proper context or substance surrounding it the whole thing falls flat.
Campbell Bird · Jul 21, 2020 Reviewed on iOSRead full review - Perhaps the desire might have been to get something a little more substantial or, as Jamiroquai would say, to go a little deeper underground. But actually it's completely okay not to go deeper underground. It's easy to overeat. It's easy to have too much. Perhaps it is the simplicity that makes this work, and exist as a true alternative. Affecting and very worthwhile.
Michael McCann · May 19, 2021 Reviewed onRead full review - A symbolic exploration of the afterlife steeped in Peruvian culture, Arrog doesn’t do enough to put its story in the context it needed. It’s certainly pretty at times and there’s an interesting message about life and death buried deep in the figurative imagery for those that go looking for it, but compared to its peers, it struggles to tell its tale effectively.
Sean Davies · Feb 04, 2021 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - An enjoyable game with a clearly defined style, pleasing audio and satisfying puzzles. However, it's also incredibly short and offers no incentive to replay. Sitting very firmly in a niche category, Arrog will appeal to few, but if this kind of game is your bag then give it a go, if only once.
