What players are saying
Counted from the reviewers’ own thumbs up/down on the 273 English Steam reviews we collected, not by the AI. Valve’s all-language rating: Very Positive (6,702 of 7,100 positive).
Players praise the game's deeply emotional and thought-provoking story. [1][2][3] Many note it is a visual novel or walking simulator with minimal gameplay. [1][4][5] Some reviewers find the navigation confusing and the writing pretentious. [6][7][8]

It's sad what passes off as good writing in video game land. Judging by the reviews I thought this was going to be some kind of masterpiece but it's not. Far from it. The story is something a child on DXM could write during a high fever. The characters are just as boring as the writing and the environment they built to display it all is at best basic and at worst extremely confusing. What are the guys over at IGN …

One of those games that, when they get you, you just go with the flow until the end. You get in a state where you can't objectively look at the flaws because the storytelling is so strong that the flaws aren't important anymore. The game is a visual novel in a 3D world with a bit of "platforming" and the only place I can think of where you might give up on the game is right at the beginning. It's one big mystery …

My mother and I have no relationship anymore years of physical and mental abuse destroyed it. I hated her for along time and then I started to become numb and indifferent to her I stopped …

1000xRESIST is not a game I’d recommend to someone looking for complex mechanics, intense action, or challenging puzzle design. At its core, the primary thing you do is run around, talk to people, explore environments, and slowly piece together the world around you. There are some light puzzle elements, but nothing that really challenges the brain. In practice, this feels much closer to an interactive visual novel …

Basically, Evangelion if it was written by a gay Chinese woman. It's a glorified visual novel, but the story is actually pretty phenomenal, skilfully combining intimate personal narratives with an existential sci-fi setting. The end result is something you'll be forced to ponder while laying in bed at night.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Knock, knock... I didn't play 1000xRESIST until November 2025, and I regret waiting as long as I did. It's easily the best game I've played this year, and it's all due to its incredibly engrossing story. Here's why you should play it: It treats sci-fi like literature, not a backdrop or wallpaper. 1000xRESIST isn’t just “cool future stuff” in the background. It’s a dense, character-driven story about clones, faith, trauma, memory, and the stories we tell ourselves to survive. You play as…
