After playing through the base game and the DLC multiple times I really need to say something about what has become my favorite game of all time:
The story is interesting but needs a few chapters to really get going. However it is carried mainly by the characters and their interactions, which are really enjoyable. No matter if main or side character, everyone adds something to the story and most of the unanswered questions of the main game are answered in the DLC.
The gameplay is the highlight of Crosscode in my opinion. Fast-paced action combined with puzzles that harmonize very well, especially in the dungeons are what makes this game not only enjoyable but gave me a sense of satisfaction only games like Ghost of Tsushima or Horizon Zero Dawn have given to me so far. Still the sometimes tricky puzzles in the dungeons can slow down the gameplay loop a little bit too much in a first playthrough, so I understand if people don't like the puzzle elements all that well.
The pixel artstyle and the soundtrack definetly hit my sweet spot and made the game shine even brighter. The only downside of the graphics is that that it is sometimes hard to see on which height non-connected platforms are making some platforming parts rahter annoying.
Overall I can definetly recommend Crosscode to anyone who likes fast-paced action RPGs an either likes or doesn't mind the pixel artstyle (although I may be a bit biased here).
This game is absolutely fantastic. I thought it had surpassed hidden gem status and reached indie classic, but less than 15K reviews on Steam, currently, is not nearly enough for a game THIS good. I'm surprised it's not up there with Hollow Knight numbers, based on how often I see this game receive high praises. I know there are YouTubers who can explain how great this game is much better than me, pretty sure that's how I discovered it, so I'm just gonna gush about my favorite thing: the MUSIC! The OST for this game is so frickin' good, I have it saved in my YouTube videos so I can listen to it whenever, and I do, a LOT. In addition, the story is excellent and the characters are all very endearing, and the game is just bustling full of life, with all the NPCs running around and having their little convos. And I believe I'm only like halfway through it, after 63 hrs, so it's a big ol' game or I'm just really slow, but I can't wait to see where it goes. I'm very invested. Also, I just gotta say that the dungeons are top tier, with challenging puzzles and boss fights, and I love it. It's like the Zelda-inspired game I always wanted, with some real difficulty to it. That said, there are a range of accessibility options to customize the difficulty, for both combat and puzzles, if you find it to be overly difficult.
Fantastic puzzle design, always escalating in complexity while never losing their intuitive nature. Will wreck your brain and make you feel both smart and dumb after figuring out.
And great story, art and music. An all-around a winner and will likely hook on nostalgia as well.
one of the best indie experiences, and perhaps games in general, that i played. its sad that a game like this comes only a few in a lifetime.
Liked:
- Engaging combat with lots of variety in enemy design and player build
- Satisfying puzzles that are complex but not obtuse
- Rewarding exploration with lots of secrets to find
- Excellent writing with a mix of humor and drama
- Captures the feeling of playing an MMO in a single player game
- DLC adds new story and gameplay without invalidating the base game
Disliked:
- Game is paced a bit slowly, especially for completionists
Really nice action rpg with interesting story and concept. Highly recommend!
Playing this on a different console was fun, still is fun on pc. The world feels like an emulated MMORPG, even though it's not an MMO, the music is nice, the story enjoyable, the puzzles difficult enough to require more critical thinking, the various gags are neat and funny at times (also cheesy which is fine cuz i like cheese). Being able to combo(or spam certain attacks) is pretty fun, as you can devise combos more focus towards hits while being able to utilize all moves to some degree(even if i kinda suck at it). I enjoy the world for what it is, the pixel art is great too. Overall this game is just fun for people who enjoy a game that you can play - laid-back and casually, for those who also enjoys a RPG, or for those who enjoy playing single player games while having a pretty interactive world.
I loved the story and the world itself. Especially the Dialogs were written so well, I never had so much fun just reading some NPC lines. The gameplay was fun as well and plenty of different enemies and challenging bosses. The puzzles where pretty challenging sometimes but in a good way.
Best part of the game is the exploration. Every time you hit a new area, the game becomes a lot of fun. I enjoy the platforming even though it can be a little hard to see at times (maybe needs some color gradations to show different 'levels').
Puzzles are generally good. I will say that at about 15 hours through the game (have second element) none of the puzzles have really been 'hard'. I generally have issues with puzzles that require you to meet precise timing windows/angles because it's not clear if you are exploiting them or if it is the intended solution.
Game is at its best when you are exploring and solving puzzles.
Story and crafting system are mostly ok. The character interactions are cute. They way you 'rank up' to get better materials is pretty cool and saves some time.
Controls are borderline awful (played on controller). Every single button on your controller does something and often requires you to hold another button down at the same time. Maybe I'm stupid, but I'm constantly forgetting which button does what.
The combat is generally fine on boss enemies and smaller packs. It really breaks down whenever you are out of your party and are required to kill multiple enemies using different elements at once. Cannot understand why they limit the amount of elemental power you can use when enemies require it to defeat them. If you overload, you basically can't kill anything and are running around in circles just smacking stuff until you can play the game again. Lots of enemies also require precise timing shots which become extremely difficult any time more than like 2 enemies are present. Game started to feel super tedious and I started avoiding combat altogether after awhile.
I probably won't finish the game, but I can see why people will like this so I won't give it a thumbs down.
yes i would recommend crosscode. I think it has a very fun story that questions the morality of a game designer who programs a consciousness into an AI. A lot of people don't like the puzzles but I do, I think they're fun to solve even if there are a lot of them. As a singleplayer mmo, one of the first in the genre, a lot of characters do talk like real people, and more importantly, the tone and their characters are consistent! I really love crosscode.
Beautiful gam
Love the music, the combat and movement feel fantastic, perfectly capturing the spirit and the vibes from the peak PS1/SNES era JRPGs while feeling really snappy and modernized in the best possible ways with tons of possible customizations in both character building and actual gameplay
The story bits know when to be lighthearted and funny or serious at the perfect time
The main character and the way she approaches the world she's in are really cute and so is everyone I've encountered through the story so far
I've played a lot of games, but this is by far my #1 favorite game of all time, everything from the music to the combat to the story is all masterfully made. If you haven't played CrossCode yet, you are missing out on one of the best gaming experiences ever made.
Really good game. Interesting story and a well balanced play style. It isn't very grindy, so you stick around areas just long enough to get an mmorpg feel, and then move on.
CrossCode is a must play. It has all the best of Action RPG games in a jRPG looking game. I have a soft spot for the delivered story of friendship, humanity and adventure, and this game can hit there in the feeling. Thanks to the writing of charming characters with the right amount of dialogue between them.
Concerning the game mechanics, exploring all the combat options and builds has been a charm. The environmental puzzles might look tough, but can give you a significant sense of achievement when solving them. All these features would never get you bored, so much so they dragged me for 100+ hours of fun gameplay.
The game has a wide selection of difficulty options. If you think that the puzzle speed is too much for you, you can lower it down. If you think that a boss is too tough for you, there are both options for levelling up and lowering down the damages taken.
All in all, this game has been a nice finding, and I sincerely hope that more players could find it out.
I had so much fun playing this game that I wracked up nearly 100 hours in less than a month, making it one of my most-played games, and I still haven't beaten it yet. However, I got burnt out on it close to the end (not including the epilogue DLC, which I bought somewhere around the 50 hour mark), but I fully intend to finish it once enough time has passed.
There is just SO MUCH to do in this game, and it's all fun. Most of the side-quests are rewarding and help expand the knowledge of the world, and the boss battles are challenging without being overwhelming. Some more highlights: although combat is meant to be geared toward projectile gameplay, you can still primarily use melee if you tweak your build correctly. And yes, there is a lot of variation to skills and gear that enhances your personal style of gameplay while also shoring up your weaknesses.
My one huge complaint is that the puzzles are repetitive and there are far too many of them. I like games with puzzle elements, but there's not much variety to the ones here, and they all get more tedious as more elements are needed to solve the same kind of puzzles. Somewhere around the third dungeon I just got so frustrated that I looked up Let's Plays for like 80% of them, because my brain started to rot just attempting even the easier ones. CrossCode either needs 60% fewer puzzles OR a much more diverse type of puzzle.
The game also starts to falter a bit toward the end, which is part of why I got burnt out on it; once you've reached the end of the game-within-the-game's current completion, your only real goal is to just get stronger until you decide to face the final antagonists, but that mainly involves getting key items to scale up enemies in previous territories in order to get better drops to forge better weapons, and it's just not as fun for me to retread old areas unless there's something new to explore there. There are some really fun side quests that open up here, though, like exploiting a glitch to stumble upon a secret area with a souped-up abomination of a boss. I kept wanting to do things like that instead of proceeding to end, and not because I wanted to live in the world of CrossCode a little longer, but because the end seemed so tedious that I'd rather do less important things.
I do plan to go back and finish it finally, and again, it's SO GOOD that's it's one of my favorite Steam games I played this year. But in the meantime, I'll play other games that have a bit more structure to them.
I have many games, and even in 2024 this is one of my favorites ever. I actually haven't finished yet, but I've spent 34 hours so far so I feel like I can fully recommend it. Just play it if the pics and videos look at all good to you.
CrossCode is just such a fun game. The story is actually pretty moving, and the gameplay is just super satisfying, from the puzzles to the combat. I would definitely recommend this game if you like top-down RPGs with a good story and great characters
Great game, great concept, great characters, great puzzles, great greatness
The best thing I can say about this game is that I can't quite compare it to anything else. Yeah, it's an action rpg, but that doesn't really describe the experience. It's difficult but has great accessibility options (enemy damage sliders, for example), and the story and characters are compelling. Definitely worth your time.
amazing puzzles and combat and pixel art, decent story, shame that the traversal is annoying with poor depth perception but like overall it's a standout game that I loved
Very fun game! I took my time and did a bunch of side quests and ended up with nearly 100 hours of playtime (including the DLC.) The sprite work is great, the music is good (especially in some locations,) and the world feels super lively. Combat is also really fun too, but it may require you to do some grinding to get enough materials for the best gear. The story was alright, it wasn't anything super unique but it had enough pull to keep me interested in the characters.
My only real complaints are that sometimes the parkour and puzzle sections can be a little wonky. Depth isn't shown very well in-game and that can lead to a lot of confusion. Puzzles are also sometimes extremely specific too which can make them more frustrating than enjoyable. One other minor nitpick I have is that you out-scale some quests really hard in terms of levelling if you choose to ignore them until later in the game. I wish there was some amount of level scaling for quests but I can understand why that could be frustrating.
This game is everything I want in a game.
This game is perfect.
From the controls to the combat to the art to the story to the music to the entire experience, its all perfect.
From a gameplay perspective, it just feels so buttery smooth to play.
Combat is snappy, sound design is fantastic, and it just gets more and more in-depth as you go on, with the later special moves being pure crack-infused eye-candy.
The level design makes you get so intimate with the game world, jumping between multiple different screens to get a chest that seemed out of reach.
The puzzles are so fine-tuned that there was never a moment where I had to google a guide, but they were never trivial, I had that "aha!" moment with every puzzle in the game; and its insane how they were able to cram so many into it, they just kept thinking up new ways to make your basic abilities interact with the world.
Everything in this game is just so intentional.
Every single design decision and line of dialogue has a purpose.
There was foreshadowing that went completely over my head 30 hours before it paid off.
Every choice in how it lays out its environment and how the story is structured, its all to sink you more and more into the world and its characters, it really makes every turn in the story have so much more weight.
And the way they play certain songs to make you associate them with a character, but not so much that it becomes grating, just so they can sneak that motif into later songs, oh my god.
Not a single blemish comes to mind when I think about the game as a whole.
Every line of code, every pixel, every dialogue box, all perfect.
I'll never forget this game for as long as I live
the dept perception, or lack of i should say is driving me absolutely insane.
now i've always disliked platforming in isometric games due to this issue but with this pixelartstyle it just becomes many times more annoying.. 9/10 times i mess up a jump is because i cannot properly see the height or depth of platforms. made even worse due to the fact that you often play on like 3 or more different heights of platforms

Classic style action RPG with more advanced gameplay and unconventional storyline. Definitely better with a controller and I think you'll enjoy the story more if you've played MMOs.
Very enjoyable combat and puzzles. Some of the dungeons go on a bit long.
Thank you a hundred times for giving adjustable difficulty levels to the puzzles! It really let me focus on figuring them out without having to worry so much about perfect execution.
The combat feels great in terms of speed and control. Everything just feels right about the movement around the map as well. The devs and designers absolutely nailed it.
8/10
40+ more hours offline
almost finished the game, i think its safe to review at this point
+ story
+ music
+ combat
+ air control well jumping as this is most of what you will be doing in the game
+ puzzles
- some of the most BS janky timed puzzles that can drive you insane
+ Parkour
- Parkour.... that starts 6 screens away and if you fall once its back to start..... more unlockable checkpoints to shorten the gameplay loop please!!!
- not being able to tell what level a platform is on. looks like you could make the jump but its impossible cause the platform your going to was 2 teirs higher
- shop trade in system is dumb.... for a few items sure, but not 95% of the stuff in the game....
- no main story way points, where was i going??????
- no quest pointers
- no zelda styled compass for dungeons. almost always needed 1 more key and had no idea where to go for it. wasted a few hours trying to find the last key locations.
you can drop pins on the map but you dont show up where you are on the map so you need to guess where the pin needs to be dropped
- playing on steam deck and it soft lags from time to time
Crosscode is a solid game with a lot of well executed ideas that draw on traditional systems without being afraid to innovate. So, why can't I recommend it? Because it's a game that either:
1) Assumes that you've never played a video game before and needs to hold your hand through an over bloated tutorial
Or
2) Doesn't understand pacing.
I have two big rules about video games. First, respect my dollar. I paid for a product, so it better be good. Second, respect my time. I'm spending time on a game, so it better be worthwhile. Crosscode harshly violates my second rule. Several hours into the game and I'm still being introduced to new mechanics. Several hours into the game, and I'm still navigating safe zones and talking to NPCs who have too much to say. Several hours in and I've only played the game -- that is to say, interacted with the aforementioned mechanics -- for a total of 15-20 minutes.
Slog through. Let your eyes glaze over as yet another NPC talks about more inane things for what I presume is the sake of tone establishment and world building. Eventually get out of the safe zones and start to explore and fight things (also known as playing the game,) but I'm already bored. It's too little, too late. And the more I push into the game, try to seize some engagement, the more tedious it grows. There's a single breath of fresh air after leaving the safe zones, and then... it just never picks up its stride.
I really want to like Crosscode. I hear nothing but positive things about it. But it's just slow slow slow. And for all its layered mechanics and systems, it's boring boring boring. Some may point out that I gave the game only 20 hours, and it'll get better if I keep going. I don't accept that. 20 hours is more than enough to finish most games out there. It's ample for a game to hook me. Crosscode just fails at pacing.
It's not a bad game. Radical Fish Games did a fine job. It's just paced so poorly that it's unplayable for me. Imagine it like this. You visit your local 5 star steak house for a fancy dinner. You sit down, order, and then watch waiter after waiter deliver wonderful looking steaks to your neighboring tables. But yours takes 3-4 hours to arrive, and when it does... it's just steak. It's a solid steak. The chef knew what he was doing. But it just wasn't worth the wait, and it's not good enough to overcome your impatience. Time wasted.
That's Crosscode.
Puzzles are engaging but frustrating as most of them require practicing execution to complete the puzzle than solving how to do the puzzle to complete the puzzle.
The combat is amazing. It's fast, it's flashy, and it also has an amazing leveling, and equipment system to go with it.
I very rarely review games but I felt compelled to recommend this absolute underrated gem. The only way you wouldn't like this game is if you expect a complete action rpg experience; this game is as much as an action game as it is a puzzle one, puzzles are everywhere and if you aren't accustomed to the genre they can become pretty hard. If you like puzzle games and action games then you can't go wrong and you'll have one of the best gaming experiences ever.
I absolutely love this game, if you're into action RPGs, and ESPECIALLY if you like pixel art games, this is your game.
So far the only thing I find disappointing is that the game can basically sequence break itself at the start of Chapter 6.
Not spoiling plot, but basically you go to meet up with your two party members and they tell you things. And oh, but you need to do this little quest first, they did it already but can help you out in doing it. So I figured, I level up, solo the quest, and I could then go back and maybe get changed dialogue of "surprise I did it already too" or whatever.
But no, the game will then skip anything between meeting up with them and completing that quest. It's basically the first time where you can REALLY do something different from what the game wants you to do, but instead of changed dialogue, you end up just skipping anything between.
I love the game, I highly recommend, I just wish the devs could've thought ahead about this part at the start of Chapter 6.
Played it more on GOG version, but bought on steam to support devs and to remote stream. Evokes nostalgia to an mmo that never existed.
Truly a work of art. The music makes every area feel so much more alive and also gives it this kind of nostalgic sense. One of my favorite indie games. Wholeheartedly recommend.
game is very good, but very very hard, not for me as I was expecting a more chill experience, but for those looking for a challenge it is good fun.
awesome characters. good story. difficulty ramps nicely.
expansion is worth as it is an extension of the story
Strong nostalgia vibes (secret of mana, link to the past) with modern smooth physics. Highly recommend.
This is a wonderful game that has both amazing fighting mechanics and even better storytelling. One of the best games I've played.
Criminally underrated. Story so good I thought the characters were real people. This game has more of a sole than I do.
CrossCode is a perfect blend of action RPG and puzzle-solving.
Beautiful crafted Pixelart.
The fast-paced combat is great and keeps you engaged.
The story is rich and full of intriguing characters.
Exploration makes so much fun, thanks to it's awesome world and level design.
The puzzles are challenging yet rewarding.
Easily one of the best games i ever played!
Nice little old-school 2D game. Good if you're not frustrated with hard-locked progression
A top down action game with lots of puzzles. Most of the game is about solving puzzles of some kind, but there is also lot of combat and some exploration.
Pros:
- Engaging and sufficiently challenging combat
- Despite being quite long game, it kept me engaged until the end.
- Most of puzzles felt engaging to solve
- Character building mechanics are at very least satisfactory
- The story and the world building were good enough to keep me interested.
- Dialogue was quite well written and sufficiently concise.
Cons:
- Many puzzles require infuriatingly precise timing and aiming.
- Often puzzles are more about polishing the execution rather than getting the idea.
- The game sometimes requires grinding to get stuff.
- Crafting system for equipment feels needlessly convoluted. There are so many different materials and you often need to craft them into something else before you can craft the item.
Most expressive protagonist in an RPG, despite (because?) a severe speech impediment.
CrossCode is a phenomenal action RPG set in a fake MMO. The story and dialog are very engaging, and the characters all have a lot of personality - while I think all aspects of the game are great, the characters and writing are the most memorable and unique. The combat is fluid and satisfying, and the boss fights felt well balanced. The one aspect that may not be for everyone is that the dungeons have a lot of puzzle elements, though I really enjoyed them. The dungeons are expansive, some taking multiple hours to complete. The game is one I imagine I'll never forget, and I'd highly recommend it.
Great game, but a actual working map (showing real-time location) for your future projects would go a long way. It's already tricky to tell what elevation you can or can't jump on, so a map that shows your actual location would at least help with basic traversing. Overall a 8.5/10 game. -1 point for not having a good map, and -0.5 for some platforming being overly complicated at times (This being really noticeable with a lack of a real-time map).
The Good
Level design and combat skills are beyond good, boss, puzzle and mission design are suprisingly creative and there is big diversity in enemy types. This game also absolutly doesn't lack content. And its very performant. It starts very fast, saves and loads very fast and switches between Controller and M+K instantaniously.
The writing and the characters not perfectly realstic, but fine.
Tbh there are so many little things, like the statistics, easter eggs (eg. pepsi man), chat log in pause screen or skippable cutscenes with fast forward.
This game is really well made.
But still not perfect, if you ask me ...
The Bad
The dash with virtually no I-frames can be frustrating, firing DPS balls gives you Carpal tunnel syndrome and the jumping like in the old Zelda games is really annoying and unpredictable. Especially because you jump so incredibly much. You have to be braced to run the same route over and over again because you miscalculated a jump - which isn't too hard when you can't really see the height difference of the surrounding terrain. You have to use your balllaser to measure the height.
The Ugly
These are by far my biggest gripes with this game:
(minor setting spoilers incoming):
In the game CrossCode you are playing a girl named Lea who is playing a game called CrossWorlds.
So you play CrossWorlds through her eyes.
CrossWorlds is an MMO and you play with other players (these are obviously NPCs for us CrossCode players).
Now, every quest that you get and every plotwist is experienced by all other "players" running around in CrossWorlds. You are not special and everytime someone needs your help they ask every other player too - even the ones in your "party". If you have to find the cure for a sick kid, everyone after you has aswell. The kid is still sick for all other players. Even your party members defeat the SAME bosses at the SAME time in a different "instance".
Your story is not special and nobody needs you.
Want to know where this gets really ridiculous?
Conversations with NPCs! Because Lea can't speak.
Example: You find a strange silver device in the nest of birds that you have to chase away. Of course, the quest giver can't know anything about the device and the dialog goes like this:
Quest giver: “And did anything interesting happen?"
Lea: “...”
Quest giver: “You found a strange silver device? That's really cool.”
This happend multiple times and is just so cheap. It breaks the immersion.
Okay ... I know that this kinda counts for all games ever (eg. The Witcher 3 was played by thousends of players) but it doesn't feel like that normaly, because I experience the gameworld DIRECTLY through the eyes of someone else AND other games try to hide the fact that you play a game. CrossCode does not.
I am Geralt of Rivia experiencing my own adventure. In CrossCode I am Lea, playing a game about an adventure
... it feels like everything I do is pointless.
-- And ... CrossWorlds would suck as a real game. It only supports three player partys and let's you play many sections on your own, without your friends. They call these zones/maps "instanced". Thats total BS.
In World of Warcraft you can play with 25 people in a Raid and normal dungeons with 5 players - which are also instanced. "Instanced" doesn't mean "solo" or "offline". Thats just stupid. The "players" in your party even dislike this themself. Just count how often they say something along the line "Oh thats instanced? I wanted to play with you! :(".
I really like the game. It gets better after a few hours. The Ugly stuff just keeps bothering me.
this is a good game, but the fun combat system and story are often overshadowed by the overly long puzzle dungeons, and those are not particularly exciting and bog down the game massively.
your mileage may vary but i personally could not stomach the amount of puzzles that were thrown my way, especially since it does a lot of other things very well.
Really fun game. Its got a mindboggling amount of content, a really well paced and likable story that isent predictable, really good puzzles, good bosses. Only real problem is a few enemy designs that are... extremely annoying to say the least, in a bad way.
Puzzles can be quite challenging and require fine dexterity. The platforming is annoying because of limited 2D perspective. Combat is fun and the story is good.
Herkes oyunu övüyor diye denemek istedim. Oynadığım en başarısız ve monoton açılış sahnelerinden birini yaşadıktan sonra bir daha geri dönmedim. Belki ileri kısımlarında güzel bir oyun vardır belki de yoktur. Aşikar bir şey varsa o da tekrar şans vermeyeceğimdir.
Obsessed with this game. Interesting premise, nostalgic visuals, super satisfying gameplay. Great mixture of combat and platforming/puzzling.
