- Long story short, if you were a fan of Mega Man Battle Network, this is probably the closest you’ll get to a new game. One Step From Eden takes everything that said game and Slay The Spire did well while cranking it up to 100. It’s a blast of a game that satisfies every video game craving I’ve had the past few years, all in one package. Plus, with everyone stuck inside, it’s the perfect time to get mad at a game that’s tough as nails. You’re welcome!
Aaron Price · Apr 14, 2020 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - One Step from Eden is an impressive feat of card-battling rogue-likes. It’s visually gorgeous and features strategic gameplay through its library of spells. This Mega-Man/Slay the Spire mashup provides an exhilarating challenge that’s constantly evolving. It’s a title with great replayability during a time when we may need it the most.
Fran Soto · Apr 08, 2020 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - One Step From Eden is a fantastic rogue-like deck-building game that is a few small tweaks away from perfection.
Jonny Foster · Apr 03, 2020 Reviewed on PCRead full review - The whole thing is brilliantly slick and polished; it just feels like it could use a difficulty balancing patch to make it feel just that little bit fairer. We're sure many of you will be uttering the phrase 'git gud' right now, but there's no denying that One Step From Eden is just that little bit too unforgiving, and this will certainly cause many players to bounce right off it in those first few hours. However, those who stick with it will be handsomely rewarded; if you can stomach the challenge, it's a hearty recommendation.
Stuart Gipp · Mar 31, 2020 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - One Step From Eden provides a unique, fast-paced experience. The combat and deck-building are fun, but it does a poor job explaining game mechanics, and given the depth of the game's card system that makes it a little bit too difficult.
Ben Simmons · Mar 25, 2020 Reviewed on PCRead full review - You can also unlock a variety of characters with their own playstyles, different loadouts, costumes, and more, but the pursuit of these might be too maddening an endeavor to complete. One Step From Eden is a good game, but it’s sorely lacking in accessibility options. If you haven’t measured your reaction time lately, you may want to do so before embarking on the perilous journey that is One Step From Eden.
Jordan Rudek · Mar 25, 2020 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - Despite some minor complaints, One Step From Eden may be one of the best indie games of early 2020. The gameplay and aesthetic, all done by a single developer, combine to make for an exciting experience. This game brings back the Mega Man Battle Network in a big way and will be great for any fan of card battlers. If you're looking for a great game to add to your library during these isolated days, pick up One Step From Eden.
Brian Renadette · Mar 17, 2020 Reviewed on PCRead full review - It manages to weld together shoot-em-ups and deckbuilding in such a way that both audiences are going to struggle to comprehend what’s happening. But invest time in it, pay attention to every attack and its benefits, and you will make the slowest of progress. The clouds clear and One Step From Eden starts to make sense.
Dave Ozzy · Jan 05, 2022 Reviewed on XB1Read full review - One Step From Eden is a lot of fun with its unique combat and deck-building capabilities and would be perfect for anyone who enjoyed Slay the Spire. I just wish it was a little more forgiving and with a very slow unlock rate you have to put in a lot more than what you get back.
Chelsea Beardsmore · May 28, 2020 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - With how disappointed I am in the final product, it’s still hard to call One Step From Eden a bad game. The boss fights are memorable, it has an appropriately fast-paced soundtrack, and for brief moments it can feel like a complete, cohesive experience. However, the roguelite elements are just not implemented well enough to make each run feel fresh, and actively work against the decent core battle system.
