- The worst thing I can say about Culdcept Revolt is that this will be such a niche title, that it will be difficult to garner a large audience. Culdcept is a game that is either right up your alley, or you won’t even look at it twice. That is a shame, because the systems do feel refined, and the rules not difficult to learn. I have actually never had interest or experience playing card games such as Culdcept, so I was surprised at how easy it was to pick up.
Matt Paxton · Dec 31, 2017 Reviewed on 3DSRead full review - I highly recommend Culdcept Revolt. The story might be largely irrelevant, but the gameplay is absolutely excellent especially if you’re into other trading card games and/or board games and becomes even better in multiplayer. It finds a happy medium squarely as part of both those genres with a variety of card art and abilities that make for a wide range of deck strategies and replayability.
Jacob Semmes · Oct 20, 2017 Reviewed on 3DSRead full review - Despite its intimidating outer layer, Culdcept Revolt is something of a hidden gem that deserves the attention of anyone with an interest in card collecting, strategy, or even just board games in general. It's wildly addictive, and boasts a robust single player component as well as both local and online multiplayer to satisfy any craving for its unique, genre-blending mechanics.
Conor McMahon · Oct 07, 2017 Reviewed on 3DSRead full review - Although Nintendo originally published Culdcept Revolt in Japan, their 2017 dance card was full enough that NIS America was able to pick this up for the rest of the world. And I’m glad that they did, as it feels like a game that’ll be a cult hit, but won’t be a breakout hit. Hopefully I’m wrong and Revolt rolls a 12 so that we keep getting more games with faster localizations.
Donald Theriault · Oct 03, 2017 Reviewed on 3DSRead full review - Coming from someone who has spent many years playing board and card games, Culdcept Revolt does an excellent job at delivering that experience in a unique way. The constant stream of new cards and maps that are unlocked throughout the game keeps it fresh and helps with the story’s pacing. As I play past the 30 hour mark, I just hope I don’t have to wait another ten years for a new Culdcept title in the West.
Azario Lopez · Sep 27, 2017 Reviewed on 3DSRead full review - Culdcept Revolt tries its best to combine classic board and card games, but the execution is lacking in more complex strategies, making players feel as though they’re not building towards a strong end goal. Those interested in Culdcept Revolt will likely find the most enjoyment in competing against others online, rather than NPCs who feel as though they’re wasting the player’s time going through every motion another human player would do in full detail.
Kirstin Swalley · Sep 26, 2017 Reviewed on 3DSRead full review - Seasoned card battlers and intrigued newcomers alike should be interested in Culdcept Revolt. Its complexity and customisability makes it one of the most replayable games in the 3DS' library, even just in single-player, while its accessible online play and well-crafted tutorial make it a perfect jumping-on point.
Lex Firth · Dec 07, 2017 Reviewed on 3DSRead full review - Culdcept Revolt is a solid card-battler that’ll easily keep you occupied for a long time, especially if you take the fight online, but I don’t expect online to be flush with activity. Gorgeous art and a decent story keep the single-player offerings moving forward, and there’s a bunch of free battles and side-missions you can partake in too. Battles do get a little on the long side sometimes though, which makes it harder to binge hours on at a time, but if you play this with a couple of friends I imagine you can have an incredibly fun time.
Mitch Jay · Sep 26, 2017 Reviewed on 3DSRead full review - En su conjunto, Culdcept Revolt propone una colección de mecánicas ingeniosamente armonizadas. Es muy posible que el texto recoja una idea sobre el juego más negativa de lo necesario. Esto responde, sin embargo, a que la ejecución de la propuesta parece anquilosada en una manera de comprender los videojuegos en exceso pausada -demasiado pesada-, que contrasta con los diseños ágiles de los juegos actuales del género de las cartas o el RPG estratégico. Así, su apuesta, con buenas ideas en el diseño de las batallas, queda empañada por fallos de ejecución y una puesta en escena de producción poco deslumbrante. Posiblemente todo esto condena a Culdcept Revolt al rincón de los títulos nicho: un experimento interesante para los entusiastas de cualquiera de los géneros que toca.
Xose Llosa · Oct 02, 2017 Reviewed on 3DSRead full review - Bien qu'il soit réservé à une niche, Culdcept Revolt se fait l'honneur d'être le premier titre de la licence à débarquer en Europe. Très prenant grâce à un système ingénieux, il est malheureusement desservi par son absence de traduction et sa réalisation antédiluvienne. Sans ces tares et son scénario soporifique, il aurait pu prétendre à bien mieux.
