Please do yourself a favor and never play Renaissance. it hurts me to see one of my favorite games from snes mutilated so much. How low has square enix fallen that games in youtube ads look more appealing. Lets see... my first complain is the graphics... every sprite ingame looks like badly compressed jgp files. Animations are poorly made and instead of a neat grid everything is placed haphazardly. Something that …

I wanted to love this, but unfortunately they seriously tarnished the game by adding the tower defense element. all they had to do was make it optional. I fully understand the game by nature isn't that long and that's okay... but my god i hate tower defense... they butchered an otherwise nostalgia heavy game. seems all we can expect from square-enix these days

I have a taste for games that combine action segments with settlement building. Games like Cult of the Lamb, The Riftbreaker and for the retro crowd, Dark Cloud 2. So it’s easy to see why I would be interested in ActRaiser Renaissance, a remake of the original 1991 SNES game. However, the lukewarm reviews and pre-rendered graphics convinced me to second guess myself and put buying this game off for years. Only just …

Actraiser Renaissance is a modern reimagining of a cult classic that dares to preserve one of the most unusual genre hybrids in gaming while significantly expanding its scope. It blends side-scrolling action with god-simulation city management in a way that still feels distinctive decades after the original’s debut. Rather than simply polishing visuals and controls, the remake aims to reinterpret the experience as a …

I loved this game when I was younger, must have beaten it a few times. This version looks beautiful in comparison. It is updated for today while keeping the classic look to everything. The one gripe I have is the tower defense modes. I am not a huge fan of tower defense games, and more than half this game has become a tower defense game. Every map has you going through about 5 tower defense battles and they can get …

60 of 235 · most liked firstBear in mind that I'm writing this as someone who played the original game on the SNES, and played through it (and LOVED it) multiple times. PROS The same base game is there, it's cool that you can switch between the original soundtrack and an orchestrated one. The magic system is revamped. In the original, you could only use a spell so many times, and once you were out, you were out for the rest of the level. In this game, you have a standard MP meter, so it can refill and you can keep using…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's a shame that the developers felt the need to make changes to the original game. It would have been the perfect remake if they had just kept to the original formula.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game lacks most of the charm of the original. There is a heavy focus on "heroes" now. It felt a lot less like a god tending your people and more a third party spectating JRPG heroes while your angel sasses everyone. You are absolutely just watching the story of the boring heroes you have recruited. You no longer naturally recover magic power on the map, so most of the game I spent just flying around waiting for magic recharge items to spawn. The game introduces tower defense…

neutral · AI labelView post →I played the original ActRaiser in my youth several times on the SNES. I was excited when I first heard about this game but delayed buying it after seeing many concerning reviews that were mixed to negative. I recently got it on sale to finally try and here are my thoughts. The Good: The initial combat felt nice with more of a combat update than just the good ol' hack and slash. This included a dodge that slides you backwards out of harms way. The art of the enemies and background looked…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I sometimes fantasize about a new ActRaiser game that still has the god game elements unlike ActRaiser 2. I know ActRaiser Renaissance exists and I played it day 1, but I want moooore.
positive · AI labelView post →The updated visual aesthetic, while a good graphical update from the original, took a bit to get used to. Going from beautiful pixel graphics to anime was a bit jarring at first, and I was a bit disappointed it bears striking similarities to multiple remakes of other games. That sort of pop-up storybook style is very nice to look at, but I prefer a style that sticks out and is unique. This one kind of blends in with the rest. I'd say the orchestral remakes of the soundtrack rival the SNES…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Let’s remake Actraiser but pad it out to make it boring Overview Actraiser Renaissance is a remake of a SNES game ActRaiser and while it looks and sounds pretty it somehow makes the game worse than the original. While I have not played the original, just from basic research I can see that everything I hated about the game could be attributed as something the remake tacked on. Yet there were parts I liked. And all of those could be attributed to the original game concept. There is something…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Disclaimer: I played the game offline on my Steam Deck, so even though I logged about 16 hours in order to finish it, including the new extra stage at the end, it says I played it for just a few hours. Well, this one was a shot of nostalgia. I remember loving the original Act Raiser for the SNES and its mix of 2D side-scroller hack & slash and "Populous"-lite city building. I also found the story about playing as a sword-wielding god and his angelic attendant in a fantasy medieval world…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I enjoyed this remake a lot. I played the original waaaaaaay back around my preteens in the early 2000's or so. I loved the game at the time, and am happy to say that I actually ended up liking the remake more. This isn't a difficult game. It's pretty easy overall, I never got a game over on normal mode and never even lost more than one life per stage, which was rare enough on it's own. Enemy's are pretty easy, and the new crystal buff system can make you pretty overpowered. Magic spells are…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a sad "no". The game does some things right - re-making the old SNES gameplay is quite well done. The action stages at the beginning and the end of each area are very similar and play well. Even including the flaws of the old version - If you're not playing on hard difficulty, you can just ignore all strategy when fighting most bosses and just rush them spamming attacks i/e. But the really bad flaws are in the added stuff in the simulation game parts and they are many: - They tacked…

negative · AI labelView post →i think this is the best possible way they could have honored the original game while staying true to the spirit of it. i don't think it is perfect by any means, but to those who were fascinated by actraiser in the past, i strongly believe this game has a lot to offer. for everyone else, it's a maybe. i really don't share a lot of the complaints i've tended to see, as i personally thought everything about this was a neat little update to a classic game and had no objections to their additions.…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Absolute ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Action segments are not improved by implementation of a scavenger hunt. First sword swing is now horizontal, rather than an overhead slash, making for more difficulty with flying targets. Bosses are somehow worse, requiring simple attack spam rather than precise movements and positioning. Town sections largely involve staring at the screen, doing nothing as you wait for more mana, which does not regen naturally in any way. Tower defense sections just make me want to play a…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Turning Actraiser into a tower defense game was… a choice. I'm going to recommend this with a huge "ehhhhh maybe?" Some other things: the platforming sections aren't nearly as tight control-wise as the original ones. The town planning is significantly different, even if you take the tower defense bits out. The story is significantly fleshed out to the point where it has one, and it's OK but nothing super-great. You can be blocked in the town-building sections by quests that sometimes require…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Supposedly an upgrade of the original Actraiser for SNES, the action combat sequences are even worse. The character handles like a turtle on depressants, casting magic gets you hit without fail, the town-building had all the secrets and stuff cut out... I'm sad.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Being a fan of the SNES original I was looking forward to this release but was so disappointed by it to the point that I didn't even finish it. The ground-breaking original successfully combined platforming and city-building gameplay in a story in which a defeated God freed each region of the world of monsters in order to allow His people to settle and live in peace. This remake attempted to recapture that magic but failed to stick the landing. The game does a good job in updating the…

neutral · AI labelView post →This hurts, for those who played the original back on the snes days you will have a nostalgic trip wrapped in a modern jacket. However if you never did its a though one, it has some very good things going for it but it all gets throw out the window with its terrible implantation of its tower defence mini game. Mind you this was never part of the original one, but its a major part of this remaster and its terribly flawed. If it was done right it might have actually improved the game by a good…

This is a game about being a man, a real man. This is a very good game. Actraiser was always a very good game, and it is again. This is a game that exudes love, and triumph, and struggle, and catharsis from start to finish, in regular beats. It does that, and it excels at that. Because of that emotional loop that coincides with gameplay loop, it just *feels*…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really want to like ActRaiser Renaissance, as it makes an admirable attempt to add more to the original ActRaiser. But ultimately, one of ActRaiser's greatest strengths was its tight pacing, and that is completely gone here. This adds copious amounts of extra content, but none of it is particularly interesting, and it just slows the game down. I also have mixed feelings on the new graphics, which are sort of charmingly ugly, like a collage of cutouts from a magazine. I really want to like…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →- If you liked the SNES original - If you like a light city builder - If you like 2d platformers - If you like (or for fans of the original, don't mind them adding) tower defense Game's pretty alright. Give it a shot.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →TL;DR -- If you played and loved the original Actraiser on the SNES, this version will probably break your heart. I really, really, really wanted to love this game. I loved the original SNES version. I tried to roll with the new things they added, but I just can't do it anymore. I'm just not enjoying it. It's painfully un-fun after a while. I can't recommend anyone buy this, especially at full price ($30 USD is a bit much for what is essentially a worse version of a SNES game from 1990). The…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An insult to the original. Tower Defense has no place in this game. Unless they add an option to disable it I'll never play this shameless cash grab made by someone who very clearly did not understand the appeal of the original. 0/10
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really wanted to like this game. It's not awful, but I don't think I would ever recommend anyone to play it. The "upgrades" from the original game are either worse than the original, or just a sidegrade. In trying to flesh out stories, they somehow made it less interesting. No longer is there any exploration of the sim abilities, you just get a quest and it tells you exactly what to do every time. The graphics are fine for the most part, but somehow they managed to make the citizens have…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →To the point ================== Actraiser in name only, this is more of an exercise in how long you can endure awful tower defense mechanics. If you're expecting a faithful recreation, skip this one for sure. +Cleared on Hard mode+ Good Stuff ================ - It sort of scratches that Actraiser itch since this isn't a very common genre of game with a bunch of random ideas thrown in. There are parts of each portion, like the side scrolling, town building and yes, even the awful tower…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you have a passing interest in a new/old game, your mileage might vary. If you have fond memories of the original and are looking to either recommend it to a friend, or indulge in some polished nostalgia - this game doesn’t have a lot to offer. Controls are still rigid and don’t really feel modernized much. New game modes were contrived to make the civ building portion more action-packed, but it feels counterintuitive. Dialog is out of hand, much like the original, but they’ve added new…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Should be called Actraiser: Interrupt You Every 3 Seconds With A Tutorial Dialog And yes, *dialog*, because not only are there 5x as many stop-everything-I-need-to-explain-how-pressing-the-A-button-attacks imbecile handholding messages as the original game - this is not an exaggeration - each and every one is an extended conversation with characters you will quickly grow to hate because their appearance means the game needs to come to a screeching halt while Generic Anime Angel explains that…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is one of those remakes of an old classic that misses the mark. Added way too much extra nonsense and new game play elements to the overhead sim part of the game. I found myself saying "omg shut the ♥♥♥♥ up" to the constant text boxes while trying to play.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Its very cute and will give you lots of nostalgia if you played the original SNES game. The graphics are decent and soundtrack good. But then... The amount of chapters in this game is the same as the original. Now instead of adding extra chapters, they opted to pad the game out with extra dialogue, A LOT of extra dialogue, and a terrible, very slow and boring tower defense mode that you can't avoid playing. You can finish the original game in about 4-5 hours, its very short and sweet. For…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I stuck this out for the top shelf femboy angel, but this remake sucks. All the tower defense stuff is really bad, the graphics are mostly hideous (top shelf femboy angel aside) and they really could have taken the opportunity to make the action sequences have tighter controls and a little more challenge. 15 hours of blech.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Back in the day, loved the original Actraiser on the SNES. Given this, I do like the action sequences much better than the quasi-defense you do in the original, however - the interruptions on the original seem a bit more in pace with growing the town. Unfortunately, gave this remake one another go today just to see why I stopped playing it a while ago - and it's absolutely jarring in the amount of interruptions you get even in the first stage of Fillmore (past the initial 2 action stages). I…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The overworld gameplay loop is pretty simple and fun and the additional characters and story elements are an improvement from the SNES game from over thirty years ago. The side scrolling segments are also simple and fun but the characters and monsters are just so ugly. 3D renders that look bad to me instead of just making good quality sprite work. I'd recommend picking this up on sale if you have nostalgia for the orignal. Playing it on Steam Deck OLED.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Only lightly not recommended, as I did have some fun with it for a while and I think it has good ideas even if it doesn't successfully follow through with them. In short, it's nowhere near as bad as people say, but the tower defense sections are both half-baked and unnecessarily pad the length of the game with a lot of tedious trial-and-error busywork. They're a good idea executed poorly, like the collectibles, quests, and the power-up system now present in the stages. Theoretically you'd go,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have been trying to enjoy this game, a game which i played so much back in the day on my SNES. But the focus of the game has shifted so much, the tower defense was at first fun, but you have to do so much of it to progress that it has become a chore. Rather than a fun bonus. And the dialogue of the game is incredibly disruptive. You get told to do 1 thing, and as you are about to do it. You get another prompt about somethimg, and as quickly as that ends, you get another and another. So the…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I loved the original Actraiser on SNES, and is one still one of my favorite titles on the platform. I started playing this remake the day it came out, but never came back to it until now. Renaissance is a case of going above and beyond when you're not needed to. The original has a mix of side scrolling action stages and a god mode where you govern the growth of your followers' population. The mix is what makes the game so iconic for its time. This remake adds a tower defense mode. While in…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I wish that I felt like playing this version. For everything it does correctly, it takes several steps back. The original SNES game was a snappy, fun game that combined some solid action platforming with some mild city-building and god-game aspects in the overworld. If this game were a rehash of the original SNES game, I think it would be lacking something, but instead we have moved too far in the other direction. What ruins this game for me is that it is no longer 'snappy'. You cannot go…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I wish I could recommend this game. I really wish. I love the original with all my heart, and I still prefer playing it rather than the remake. The reason is simple: pretty much everything they added detracts from the experience rather than improves it. The graphics, well, I don't love them but I see how this is an improvement to most people. But the lukewarm (towerish) defense gameplay? Nah, that's just something nobody asked for, or needed. Only the music is dope, but that's not quite enough…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Do not care for the tower defense mode, it was not in the original and it is not welcomed here, give an option to not have to do it.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →So, I am assuming that if you are looking at this game you played the original SNES game back in the day. This game, on normal, is a lot easier than that one - but has some interesting additions that make it worth playing. Personally, I enjoyed it. A nice way to spend a few hours this Christmas! Note: Not an achievement hunter, can't be bothered with "Special" mode!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have very fond memories of playing SNES in my room on quiet weekends. Actraiser is one of those great memories, and one of the best SNES games. I've played through it a good handful of times, and enjoyed every minute of it. Now we get the remake of it, and I have been hesitant to pull the trigger because of a major change in the game. But I did get it with a hope I would still love it. I didn't. And what ruined it? That new feature: Tower defense. The game looks "nicer" by looking…

There are 2 elements: 1) side scrolling hack and slash 2) city building with angel defense against invading demons. This is where the review is going to switch focus to the "but" with new elements in the game. For some reason, the devs felt the original SNES game needed more. They have added a number of things that I like in concept but not really a fan of…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →TLDR: If you have a nostalgia itch for this series, this game may scratch it, but it is a Frankenstein of a game, that is trying to do too much at once while trying to cater to the old fans. Occasionally the game, and story, that could have been shine through and it works. Unfortunately those are only brief glimpses. The rest of the time who ever designed this thing needed to switch to decaf and think a little harder about whether they were making a mobile game or a console game. Worth…

Awesome Soundtrack by Yuzo, even the Anime like artworks aren't bad, BUT everythings doesn't fall into place. Graphics and animations don't match.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The Actraiser Renaissance is pretty awesome. I played the OG Actraiser game years ago. The gameplay and graphics are really good, it stays true to everything from the original. They have revved it up with a more in depth plot, so you end up having a more involved story line where you can connect with the characters a little deeper than in the original game. One main example I can think of is that when building your town, you periodically have extra quests you must complete. There are enemies…

If you have never played the original ActRaiser before, you would be doing a disservice to yourself by allowing this pitiful remake to be your introduction to the series.

Pros: + The new OST is a fantastic re-imagining of the original score + The hand drawn art in the menus and during character dialogue…
