Full disclosure: I’ve never seen an episode or read an issue of Grendizer in my life. What drew me in was the presentation - the trailer made it look like a colorful PS2 game and, for better or for worse, that’s exactly what it is. This game is fun for about an hour. The combat is simple but feels pretty decent. However, it never really evolves over the course of the 7 hour campaign. You’re given most of your …

I’ve "only" been waiting 40+ years to finally be able to play my youth hero: Goldorak! So, telling you this review may be a little biased would be an understatement. :) For the other long-time fans out there: Every little things you expect are in here, and this game will push all your right ‘buttons’ while you press Goldorak’s ones! As a starter, on top of The Grendizer himself, we can play Actarus (the Duke), we …

I have mixed feelings about this game. On one hand, it gets many things right; the voice-acting (I played with Japanese dub), the artstyle, the sound-design, it is all very on-point. You are playing a few episodes of the old UFO Robo Grendizer, and you can tell the game designers are people who loved the show. That being said, this game is a bloody rip-off. I have 15 hours on this. That is 15 hours with like half of …

The Game plays with your nostalgia and does it quite well, so if you like the Anime or Manga you should get it, but my advice is to get it only on sale. The good stuff: -the game is colorful and enjoiable and I believe it is the only one out there (Grendizer recent release). -It has cool moves and specials that you can perform, that can also be upgraded with loot from enemies. -there are 2 modes of play and both are …

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A solid AA, PS2-era action game featuring a classic Japanese mecha. I love how this game introduces the concepts and story of Grendizer for those who have not watched the show. It is not mindblowing, it is not flawless, and I would even say it is clunky at times, but there is an undeniable charm to this game that is unmatched. I want to see more games like these about other mecha franchises that are not tactics games. Give us Mazinger, Devilman, Steel Jeeg, Raideen, I want to see them all!!!

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Grendizer is the first anime I've ever watched, around the end of the 70ies (in my native French). I've got the DVDs, the mangas and the Kana comic by Dorison/Bajram/Cossu/Sentenac/Guillo (name: Goldorak). I've hesitated buying this game for a long time but a friend who got it told be it was a lot of fun. He was so sure I would love it, he offered to give me the money for it (16 EUR, during the sales). That was enough to convince me so I declined and I bought it immediately. I'm glad I did.…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Got this game thru Steam's digital store when it was on sale just late April of this year. I grew up watching Super Robot animes during the late 1970's thru early 1980's. Being from Philippines, I became a fan of "Mazinger Z" & "Voltes V(five)" when I was just 4 or 5 years old. Before coming to the States, my parents & I moved to the Middle East (Saudi Arabia) during the early 80's thru early 90's. This was when I first heard of "Grendizer" watching its episodes. Even though I didn't understand…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is not my usual type of game. Linear play etc... I'm a skyrim, Fallout junkie.... I'm an hour in. Is this the best game of all time... no... I'm anglophone and watched this as a kid in french in the 70s / 80s. so I set it to the french dialog which is REALLY REALLY good. I won't spend 1000s of hours playing this... but still worth the money divided by the 10 to 20 hours that I will probably play.... Drop the money, encourage them to expand the game. There is obviously a lot of PASSION for…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →TLDR; Game is DOA, glitchy and poorly optimized. Fun Game, a bit too repetitive but that aside it has a couple of bigger issues. This game is beyond poorly optimized: I'm using a RX 6700 (non XT), Ryzen 5 5500, 16GB RAM at 1080P, the game looks good but still a bit simple, like a gorgeous PS2 game (maybe a budget ps4 game) and still the framerate drops way below 30FPS frequently and on some real time cutscenes I see a weird checkered pattern on the walls. Also couldn't get a decent stable…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Gameplay is passable, in a good janky double AA ps2 title way. But content wise the game just feels like 90% filler

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Grendizer was my childhood, everyday after school I would come home and watch the series dubbed in Arabic over and over again. Some much so that I ruined our VHS tapes of the series that my parents got my the whole series on burnt CD. Does the game have problems, yes. Is it repetitive, yes. But guess what I'm bias and don't care. I love Grendizer to much and this game to care what anyone says about it. I've tripled the games completion time because I just wanted to run around as Grendizer, take…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →UFO ROBOT GRENDIZER: THE FEAST OF THE WOLVES – REVIEW For starters, I am a huge Go Nagai fan, and Grendizer is one of my favorite series ever. Even though it is not canon to Mazinger Z or Great Mazinger (and honestly, I wish they would make games for those franchises too), I can say that this game is still a very enjoyable experience, especially for fans. Story The story of the game adapts roughly episodes 1 to 7 of the original Grendizer anime, with some minor changes and additional details…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This dev team is making a Cobra game next and I cannot wait to see how it turns out. Give them the Harlock license imo
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Simply put, this is an overpriced and cheaply made game full of bugs and abandoned. There may be spoilers. The game has light instead of color, the settings are limited. In both good and bad quality, the game looks the same and still lags at times. You can expect various bugs, some of which require you to restart the game, and the save system is quite bad. The story is boring, full of meaningless conversations, but at least there is audio, the design of the people looks like it was made 20…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Feast of Nostalgia – A Journey Back in Time 🥰 Playing Grendizer: Feast of the Wolves felt like stepping into a time machine and revisiting the golden era of giant mecha anime and classic arcade-style gameplay. From the moment the intro sequence played, with its faithful recreation of the legendary robot and its universe, I was hit with an overwhelming wave of nostalgia. The game isn’t just a love letter to UFO Robot Grendizer—it’s a tribute to a time when mecha battles were larger than life,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I enjoyed this game. I loved the controls whether piloting the Grendizer, TFO, or Spazer. The only issue with this game is that it is entirely too short. This excellent game could be a great game through DLC expansion. That being said, here are 10 suggestions for how to expand this game: 1) Boss Rush Mode - The Boss fights are fun in this game, I would love to revisit the fights in Boss Rush where I can enter an arena and do combat with my fully upgraded Dizer 2) Vega horde survival mode…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A very basic plain punching enemies with Grendizer! No complaints for the sake of nostalgia, and with japanese dub....i feel like im back to my earlier inner child. Hope the team would make others like Mazinger
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you like Grendizer, then you definitely should play this game. If not, then don't play it. The game is really easy though, I think it needs a hard mode. However, it is really fun and I liked the art style of the game. The soundtrack brings back memories. I hope if we get a Mazinger game in the future with a similar gameplay style.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a low budget licensed anime game of a old 70s mecha anime. It has some 6 open stages with main and side objectives scattered about as well as enemy patrols and collectable items to level your abilities with. The main gameplay of these levels is a 3D beat-em-up. In-between those stages are some 2D arcade shoot-em-up levels and 3D Rail Shooter levels. None of these sections are as good or difficult as other popular games in their respective genres, but they are competent enough to still…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's cool at first but rapidly becomes this absolutely mundane experience.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I wanted to like this game but it has too many flaws. Even if you’re a fan of the series, the game is extremely repetitive. The graphics other than the robots are pretty bad. The performance is also bad and the game is unoptimized. You can upgrade Grendizer to the max only after you have finished the game which is pointless. The music is pretty good as it’s mostly from the anime.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Got softlocked back in November and there's yet been a patch to fix the stage I'm on despite multiple reports over the months. I envy the people that got to experience the whole game, it was fun in its simplicity up to that point.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have to say, this game is composed of some great highs, and pretty bad lows as far as gameplay experience is concerned. I'm not exactly a Grendizer fan, but I am a fan of super robot anime in general, and my exposure to UFO Robo Grendizer itself was mostly limited to what I got from SRW A Portable. Let's start with the highs, the music has failed to become old for me, and have not really had any audio failures aside from a couple, but they stem from a low that I'll talk about latter.…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really wanted to enjoy this game I REALLY TRIED but it has way too many performance problems to ignore them. There is a lot of love put into this game, I can feel it. Giving it a negative review is painful to me, but I can not recommend the game in its current state.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Being a fan of Mazinger Z and it's spin offish series "Mazin Wars" A friend showed me this and said I would like it and after seeing the trailer and a couple videos I was sold. UFO ROBOT GRENDIZER is if mazinger Z was a interactive world game (I am familiar with the Sega Genesis game "Mazin Saga Mutant Fighter"...that was a beat em up with awesome animation!) you feel like you are PLAYING the show, it's a breath of fresh air with all the samey games we've been seeing lately. Has the music, dub…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Definetly worth it for all the old and new fans of the Grendizer franchise! There is little to no merch, or content of Grendizer anymore in 2023 and this game is such a good tribute to it, it stays true to the original series, and is just a package of nostalgia for the fans! Cannot stress enough how much the music makes me wanna cry as a die hard fan of Grendizer (Goldorak)! I ABSOLUTELY recommend this game!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →UFO Robot Grendizer is a clunky beat em up with some basic open world elements. The lack of deliberate level designs make each of the environments feel empty, and the placement of invisible walls seems particularly thoughtless. Furthermore, the game's diversions into shooting genres are ridiculously under-baked. That said, the combat works on a fundamental level, and the game is reasonably well paced for something that is a bit repetitive - I'm glad that the game ended when it did. The story…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I got this game for free from a friend so I'll start with that. I beat it in roughly 8 hours and got all but 3 achievements. This game was a lot of fun, but I don't think it's worth $40. As I type this, it's currently on sale for $10, and I think for that price it's fine. It is buggy with some of the graphics, and shading. I had some weird scenes where the background was giving an odd flash, but this game absolutely understands Grendizer and mecha itself. Hell I think it understands Go Nagai as…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I watched this as a kid and this brings back so many memories. The game is simple easy to learn and fun to play
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game brought me back to the 80's! the simplicity of the graphics and the fidelity to the original mood and visual style... the game as a whole has an amazing retro-feel that I loved!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's a fun but very simple beat em up "harken"ing back to one of Go Nagai's classics. the skins you can collect are pretty neat
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Grendizer: The Feast of The Wolves bets a lot on our nostalgia, but misses the mark due to aesthetic choices and overall tone. The simple mechanics and extremely low difficulty don't help either, and whilst the game is functional, it's tied to a price-tag too high for its production values. [url=https://youtu.be/-MOw127LDyg] In-Depth Review - FiOth
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Short game you can beat in a weekend. Very basic hack and slack but it's Mecha which we don't get a lot in this simple style. Get it on sale.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Just 100 percented the game, like alot of reviews say the tutorial gives you most of the abilities from the jump and the only thing the elongates the experience to a max of 8 or so hours is a arena that only opens when you finish the level and exceedingly annoying collectibles spread across a large map with no minimap to help guide you. With the negatives out of the way, the combat loop is satisfying, the english (the country) accents are hilarious but fitting considering the 70s aestetic.…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is like playing a Simple 2000 game in 4K PS2 slop built in Unity What a time to be alive...
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A swell little game, with 6 stages. It's built from inoffensive but unimpressive Sh'mup and Rail Shooter segments, open area combat arenas, and the 1v1 UFO Saucer Beast Fights, all to a fantastic soundtrack recreating the 70's Show's one. The Combat arenas are filled with collectables and various missions (3-6 per stage), but the intense Sauce Beast Fights are where this game, and it combat really shines. Unfortunately there is not Boss Mode, or new game plus, so there literally is nothing…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Oh my god how did I never see this game before? I'm not too far in it yet, but its a mecha game where the gameplay feels fun, the mecha feels like it has weight to it, and with all the music and dubbing? It feels like watching a classic show. If anything it might make me try to watch Grendizer too.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As colder weather approaches, this is a sound investment in room heating that will provide significant warmth from a PC source regardless of spec. Recommended at discount, even if you love what this is based on and think the above cannot possibly apply to your rig: it does and you have to nerf the video settings to get it to play without your fans getting louder and louder. Otherwise, decent, overpriced retro fun - for non JP speakers, best enjoyed with the Japanese dub and English subs. You…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Small disclaimer: I haven't seen the show, but I am a fan of mecha anime in general so this was right up my alley anyway. This is a Licensed game based on the Super Robot anime of the same name, UFO Robot Grendizer. The main gameplay is a simple 3D brawler where you can use Grendizer's abilities to defeat the bad men in a variety of ways, including a rocket punch, anti-gravity blast, and blades that shoot out from the shoulders and can turn into a melee weapon. Alongside the main gameplay,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →microids typically publishes what can best be described as kusoge cashgrab games and just looking at the trailer of grendizer should tell you thats not what this is, this game is an anomaly in their catalog... kinda, ill get there later this game is a very lovingly made tribute to legendary mangaka go nagai's ufo robot grendizer, a fairly contentious part of the mazinger canon, an extremely popular cult classic anime in some countries and borderline unknown outside of mecha otaku and fans of…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not a fan. Gameplay loop is rather boring. Having to use certain combos to defeat enemies over and over again. Not fun. And look giant overworld collecting. Points for Grendizer but not much else.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It covers up to chapter 7 from the original series, I think they could expand it a bit more. The combat is fine and the music is fantastic! I got performances issues but after the patch, it was a bit better.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Should have had a little more content or the price should have been lower, half the price at least. Otherwise it's good enough
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →In short, Grendizer: Feast of the Wolves is a true gem in the gaming world, delivering a perfect blend of nostalgia, innovation, and entertainment. Whether you're a long-time Grendizer fan or generally interested in mecha, this game is an absolute must-play that sets a new standard for excellence in the gaming industry.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is far from perfect, but despite the flaws and optimization issues, I thoroughly enjoyed my playthrough. The game however is way too easy, I got every achievement except for dying at least once so now I gotta purposely kill myself to 100% the game XD All I know, the grendizer in my pants kept shooting out of my chute whenever I loaded the game back up to complete it. Also, I know a certain somebody on my friends list reads my reviews and I’m just going to say it now, if purity1940…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →6/10 decent quality game, on par with a gamecube game + a few things you can upgrade - blackscreened from time to time on loading screens and have to fully reset game. lost all that gameplay.... oooh its 40$ yeah you can pass on this one
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I’ll start by saying I never watched the anime or read the manga but my love for Mecca/Gundam had me heavily invested in the first hour. This game is superb. It’s a shame not more people have played it, but I do have an idea why. The $40 price range is a bit steep as I myself picked it up on a humble bundle couple weeks ago. I personally wouldn’t have purchased it for the price tag on a sale? Sure. But after playing through the lot from the bundle this is quite easily one of if not the best…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A great super robot game that makes you wish that there's a Mazinger or a Getter Robo version of this. While it's not perfect (game stutters), it is fun to play regardless and scratches that super robot itch just enough to be satisfied with the game itself. Sadly it's not a complete experience as it only covers a portion of the Grendizer story so I hope they release updates to complete it in the future.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →amazing retro mecha anime vibes game
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Goldorak rules! thanks for making this game
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An awesome game made with love.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It was a super fun little mecha game! If you are a big Grendizer fan/fan of the Mazinger series then definitely give this game a play. It has everything that a 70s mecha could basically ask for in a single game with it's music, stages, exploring, boss fights, etc. It's straightforward and faithful to the series and I love it! Although fair warning, it does have framerate issues here and there, but I was loving the game too much that it didn't bug me much at all!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this is a total bias review... as it is my childhood anime "hero".. i totally loved the game. it is not overly complicated nor hardcore fighting game. not too easy not too hard. i might even say it is suitable for kids as far as the difficulty goes. sadly the ending seems to be not finished in my option. it has a lot of potential. overall good adaptation needs more game play length and more story :) get it if you are a fan of grendizer and not if you are looking for a new game and you…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A good adaptation of the original material
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Overall, Grendizer is a solid game with a clear love and passion for its classic super robot source material. It’s also very much meant for fans of Grendizer, It also clearly needed more time for polish and GPU optimization . cant wait for part 2 and 3 ;D (when all crow assembles ) please make it better and bigger.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →UFO Robot Grendizer is another fantastic homage to classic robot anime, much like Megaton Musashi. The game's mech-combat RPG mechanics bring back fond memories of iconic series such as UFO Robo Grendizer and Getter Robo. The sense of nostalgia is strong, making it a delightful experience for fans of the genre. Where UFO Robot Grendizer stands out is its impressive open world. The expansive environments offer more freedom and exploration opportunities, enhancing the overall gameplay. You can…
