- Ending - Extinction is Forever is an emotional story-driven survival adventure game about an ordinary fox struggling to raise and protect her newborn children in a dangerous world.
Alex Sem · Dec 06, 2023 Reviewed on iOSRead full review - Endling - Extinction is Forever is a unique stealth game that raises the stakes using lovable cubs and a desperate mother fox across the dreary backdrop of the end of the world. It's a memorable narrative with effective mechanics, but it's not the ideal game to play on your mobile device. It's also best to go through it in short bursts rather than in long sessions to keep the repetitiveness at bay.
Catherine Dellosa · Sep 22, 2023 Reviewed on iOS, AndRead full review - While there isn’t much of a storyline outside of survival, Endling - Extinction is Forever still manages to be a hardcore fun game thanks to its graphics, immersive gameplay and close attention to detail.
SKYLER ECKL · Apr 24, 2023 Reviewed on iOSRead full review - Endling looks pretty amazing in motion and it definitely creates some emotional moments, but enjoying either of these aspects of the game can be pretty frustrating. Endling suffers from a number of bugs that can prevent you from making progress or force you to restart the game from a checkpoint.
Campbell Bird · Feb 15, 2023 Reviewed on iOSRead full review - What Endling lacks in deep gameplay, it makes up for with its gripping story. This isn’t a subtle tale, as indicated by the full title, and you’ll definitely feel bad when you’re done playing, but we cannot overestimate the importance of its message. This is a game that has the rare ability to deliver a tragic story in a beautiful way and although you won’t get to see a happy ending, you’ll end up seeing a worthwhile one.
SebastiaanRaats · Sep 18, 2022 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - Endling – Extinction is Forever is a powerful game. It deftly highlights human greed, corruption, and our unique knack for environmental devastation. At the same time, it offers glimmers of hope and redemption, tiny bright spots that manage to shine through the encroaching darkness. The trials and tribulations of the traumatized fox at the heart of the game will leave your heart aching and bruised, and you’ll be left somehow simultaneously saddened and enraged. Such sorrowful fury is meant to be a powerful motivator: use it.
Daymon Trapold · Aug 03, 2022 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - Endling: Extinction is Forever is a good game for survival fans and another reminder that humans suck. The story evokes a lot of emotion and tough choices. Overall this is a bitter-sweet game. The story is bitter, and the gameplay is sweet.
Kaelyn Daugherty · Aug 03, 2022 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - Endling: Extinction is Forever is a tech-savvy game built around well-built gameplay. The repetitive process of hunting for survival and exploring whenever possible seems intentional and draws the player into this world. There are no ordinary moments in this wild nature, and any moments of routine or boredom quickly end with a bear trap or an encounter with a Scavenger.
Brau3er · Aug 02, 2022 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Endling: Extinction is Forever does not do anything more than pointing a finger at these problems and expects you to get something more. Yet the emotional connection in the game between the fox and the player relies on their love for the animals.
Yağmur Sevinç · Jul 31, 2022 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Endling - Extinction is Forever is a warning signal about humans that should pay more attention to their environment and avoid it being ruined by pollution born out of greed. At the same time, it is also a truly engaging and immersive game with well-thought-out mechanics. It manages to combine the social message with a fun experience.
