Critic Reviews
- Signs of the Sojourner is an intriguing deck-builder with a great cast of characters and integrated story and gameplay. While there are some glaring flaws with its mechanics, this is a nice relaxing game that teaches the beauty of communication.
Elisha Deogracias · Apr 09, 2021 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - The story is too slow, the card play is not engaging enough, and the gap between the two elements is never actually bridged. Signs of the Sojourner remains a bizarre experiment, that had potential, but where the artists stumbled being tripped by their own feet.
Cosmin Vasile · Apr 04, 2021 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - It’s easy enough to learn, and you’ll get the hang of it after a while. It’s just the RNG that will throw you for a loop. As frustrating as it was at times, I still enjoyed my time with Signs of the Sojourner. It’s certainly worth checking out.
Rachel Poli · Mar 30, 2021 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - While frustrating at times, Signs of the Sojourner does a fantastic job of nailing the actual flow of communication in the form of a card game. It also provides an excellent sense of freedom. By the time I got to one of the game’s multiple endings, I really felt like my actions and choices had earned it.
Andrew Thornton · Mar 26, 2021 Reviewed on Switch - If you’re looking for something different and unique then Signs of the Sojourner deserves your attention. Its simple-to-learn card game mechanic does a fantastic job of symbolizing a lot of the core concepts of communication, and once you learn the best tactics to use you’ll want to experience everything the game has to offer.
Jake Plant · Mar 21, 2021 Reviewed on XB1Read full review - There are some parts that don't quite work. A fatigue system discourages you from prolonged excursions and can make things tricky, and the limited number of cards means you're rarely fully prepared to speak with everyone. Overall, though, we'd say it's a successful experiment, and a breath of fresh air among all the usual noise.
Stephen Tailby · Mar 17, 2021 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - Signs of the Sojourner is a refreshing game, succeeding largely in how well it takes eternally relatable ideas like talking to other people and transforming them into a very sensical card game that has a surprising amount of depth despite a straightforward presentation. The way playing cards represents conversations is genius, making this a standout for how unique it feels.
Neal Ronaghan · Mar 16, 2021 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - Signs of the Sojourner is a slice of life deck building narrative game. If that was more than a mouthful for you, you may consider steering clear of this game as the conversation based game-play will careen you down a narrative driven path rife with haggling and sometimes fleeting relationships.
Steven Weber · Jul 03, 2020 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Signs of the Sojourner is clever and charming. While the game mechanics can put a dampener on the laid-back feeling of the game, you’ll probably be too engrossed in the touching story to care. In a time where everyone in the world is being forced apart, a game about making connections and appreciating what you have feels like the perfect antidote.
Becca Smith · May 29, 2020 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Signs of the Sojourner is one of the most cohesive narrative games I have ever played. The interplay between mechanics and storytelling is absolutely brilliant, which makes it a shame that it misses the mark in terms of actually being enjoyable to play. The inclusion of a frustrating "fatigue" mechanic is at odds with the general laid-back design approach to deckbuilding.
